PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect the surplus or shortage of game media and to start a game at an early stage while keeping a machine body compact. SOLUTION: When an operation part (a first operation part 6a, e.g.) is operated after an internal state becomes ready for play in a game machine such as a slot machine, a game employing a prescribed number of game media B as one unit is started. The game machine comprises: an accepting part 1 for accepting the game medium B; a fetching means 3 for fetching the game medium B from the accepting part 1 into the machine through a path 2; and a state setting means 5 which makes the internal state ready for play on completion of fetching of the game medium B by the fetching means 3. Since the state setting means 5 makes the internal state ready for play directly after the completion of fetching of the game medium B and the operation of the operation part, the game can be started at the early stage without waiting fetching of the game medium B.
