PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To smoothen the processing of un-discharged prize balls at the time of restoring from service interruption by avoiding outputting of prize ball requesting information in spite of forming a prize ball condition in a prescribed period after restoration from the interruption of a power source and outputting prize ball requesting information after finishing a prescribed period in a game machine capable of storing information on the number of un-discharged prize service balls even at the time of the service interruption. SOLUTION: At the time of processing a prize-winning ball signal at a main substrate 31 during a game by a pachinko game machine, whether a one-minute timer is under operation or not is confirmed and at the time of not operating, whether processing of a prize-winning ball signal is executed or not is first judged after supplying a power source. This judgment is executed for judging whether a CPU 371 for controlling prize balls starts un-discharged prize balls at the time of restoring from the service interruption and when the judgment is YES, the one-minute timer is started. Thus, prize ball discharging check and sending starting processing of a discharging number designating command based on new prize winning is prohibited for a period (one minute) required for completing new prize winning to progress the game without generating a fault.
