A game machine capable of causing a player to pay attention to a game title image. The game machine comprises a default game title image storing section (52), an optional game title image storing section (54), an operation input section (60), a selection section (62), and a display section (64). When no game operation input is made within a predetermined time after a predetermined timing, the selection section (62) selects a default game title image so that the default game title image is displayed by the display section (62). When any game operation input is made within a predetermined time, on the other hand, either a default or optional game title image is displayed by the display section (62) depending on whether the content of the game operation input satisfies a predetermined condition.
