PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily take two or more units of game balls into a game machine by a continuous supply operation by starting the succeeding supply of a prescribed number of balls in the case of a state where a supply switch is depressed when the supply of a prescribed number of balls is ended with respect to the game balls such as PACHINKO (Japanese pinball game) balls. SOLUTION: The game balls B come down inside a flow-in guide 32 from a game ball flow-in port 31, pass through a ball shutter 34 and arrive at the opening part of a partitioning board 36. In this case, one of groove parts in a rotary body 40 is positioned at a place corresponding to the opening part of the board 36 to form a flow passage together with a drum 46. Then the game balls B come down to the flow passage, are stopped at the end of the rotary body 40 and stored. When a ball detecting sensor 35 detects the passage of the unit number of balls, a solenoid 33 is operated to close the ball shutter 34. In the case a game player depresses a game ball supply button at this time, a stepping motor is energized, the rotary body 40 is rotated by an angle corresponding to the portion of one groove part and the game balls are discharged to a game ball flow-out port.
