Abstract

There is a demand for gaming machines that allow for smooth gameplay. [Solution] Of the predetermined output ports, at least two predetermined bits are allocated for first information, and the bits of the predetermined output ports other than the predetermined bits are unused bits, and the data indicating that the game is in a normal state as first information and the unused data corresponding to the unused bits other than the predetermined bits are the same data, and in the process of outputting the first information to the outside of the game machine, only some of the predetermined bits are used, and the bits other than those some of the predetermined bits are unused bits, and the data indicating that the game is in a normal state as first information and the data corresponding to the unused bits are the same data.

In the process of outputting the first information to the outside of the gaming machine, only a portion of the predetermined bits are used, and the bits other than those predetermined bits are unused. The data indicating that the game is in a normal playing state as the first piece of information, and the data corresponding to the unused bits which are predetermined bits, are the same data. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
