PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent delay of transmission of a control signal indicating the number of winning balls to a put-out control means from a game control means, and to securely manage the number of prize game media yet to be put out. SOLUTION: The put-out control means continues the turned-on state of a winning ball BUSY signal only for a winning ball BUSY signal turned-on period, and changes the state to the turned-off state when receives a wining ball REQ signal from the game control means. The put-out control means executes the put-out process and subtracts the number of unpaid wining balls stored in a RAM without checking an error bit whenever the put-out is detected. The game control means subtracts the number of winning balls indicated by a winning ball number signal from a total winning ball number buffer after confirming that the turned-on state of the winning ball BUSY signal has continued for a winning ball BUSY signal input confirmation period, and changes the state of the winning ball REQ signal to the turned-off state when the winning ball BUSY signal is in the turned-off state. Then, the game control means changes the output state of the winning ball number signal to change the state of the winning ball REQ signal to the turned-on state if the content of the total winning ball number buffer is not zero.
