PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To transmit an external signal indicating that a slot machine shifts to a notification game, from main control means to the outside when the number of times of games from a predetermined time becomes the number of times of cancellation games or when it is determined to originally shift to the notification game at a side of sub control means.SOLUTION: Main control means 50 includes: a game counter 74 for counting the number of times of games from a predetermined time; game count setting means 73 for setting the number of times of cancellation games; and external signal control means 71. When the number of times of games from the predetermined time becomes the number of times of cancellation games or when the shift to the notification game is determined, sub control means 90 shifts the slot machine to the notification game. When the number of times of games from the predetermined time becomes the number of times of cancellation games or when the number of times of games operating a stop switch with such operation contents that a specific pattern combination can be displayed becomes a specific number of times of games, the main control means determines that the slot machine shifts to the notification game, and the external signal control means transmits an external signal indicating the shift to the notification game. 【課題】所定時からの遊技回数が解除遊技回数となったとき、又はサブ制御手段側で独自に報知遊技に移行させることに決定したときに、報知遊技に移行したことを示す外部信号をメイン制御手段から外部に送信する。【解決手段】メイン制御手段５０は、所定時からの遊技回数をカウントする遊技回数カウンタ７４と、解除遊技回数を設定する遊技回数設定手段７３と、外部信号制御手段７１とを備える。サブ制御手段９０は、所定時からの遊技回数が解除遊技回数となったとき、又は報知遊技への移行を決定したときは、報知遊技に移行させる。メイン制御手段は、所定時からの遊技回数が解除遊技回数となったとき、又は特定の図柄の組合せが表示可能となる操作内容でストップスイッチが操作された遊技回数が規定遊技回数となったときは、報知遊技に移行したと判断し、外部信号制御手段は、その旨を示す外部信号を送信する。【選択図】図２１
