PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine which achieves a higher accuracy and a speeding up of discharge by simplifying control at a discgarge control means in a type in which a discharge mechanism for discharging game balls is controlled by the discharge control means. SOLUTION: In the game machine which has a discharge controller 300 to control a discharge unit 600 for discharging game balls 99, fitted onto ball receiving parts 615A and 615B of sprockets 603A and 603B driven to turn by a pulse motor 607 with the rotation of the sprockets 603A and 603B, the demanded number of prize balls to be discharged from a game controller 100 is cumulatively stored into a storage counter and the discharge unit 600 is made to perform discharge operation corresponding to a value of a discharge counter set based on the residual number of the storage counter while the number of balls discharged as detected by a prize ball discharge sensor 713 is directly subtracted from the storage counter. This enables the carrying over of the insufficient number of balls as that which is not yet subtracted from the storage counter even when generated during any of discharge operations.
