20130314399 | RECORDING MEDIUM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - An example information processing apparatus includes: an operation part; an attitude output part outputting, in time series, attitude data corresponding to attitude; an information storage part storing, in time series, information relevant to the attitude data outputted by said attitude output part; a display processing part, in correspondence to the attitude data outputted by said attitude output part, performing processing concerning display of a three-dimensional virtual space; an information acquiring part, from the information stored in time series by said information storage part, acquiring information corresponding to the time preceding by a given period the time that operation was performed on said operation part; and an information processing part, on the basis of the operation performed on said operation part and the information acquired by said information acquiring part, performing information processing. | 11-28-2013 |
20140135117 | STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREIN GAME PROGRAM, GAME APPARATUS, GAME SYSTEM, AND GAME PROCESSING METHOD - Game images are displayed at least on a portable first display device and a second display device different from the first display device, respectively. A first game image of a game space seen form a first-person viewpoint of a player object positioned in the game space and a second game image of the game space seen from a fixed predetermined viewpoint are generated, and the first game image and the second game image are displayed on the first display device and the second display device, respectively. | 05-15-2014 |
20140141879 | STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREIN INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - An image including at least a part of a virtual world is generated as a first display image, a first sound created in the virtual world is generated, and a second sound forming a part of the first sound is selected in accordance with a user operation. Then, control is performed such that the first display image is displayed on a first display apparatus. Control is performed such that the generated first sound is output from a first loudspeaker in synchronization with the first display image displayed on the first display apparatus. Control is performed such that the selected second sound is output from a second loudspeaker. | 05-22-2014 |
20140206422 | STORAGE MEDIUM STORING GAME PROGRAM, GAME DEVICE, GAME SYSTEM, AND GAME PROCESS METHOD - An example of a game device accepts inputs from a plurality of players to allow a game to progress. First, the game device accepts a first rhythm input by a first player. A model rhythm is generated and presented based on the first rhythm input. The game device accepts a second rhythm input by a second player. Then, the game device evaluates the second rhythm input using as a reference the model rhythm. Thus, by generating a model rhythm based on a rhythm which is input by a player, it is possible to provide a game with a high playability having an increased degree of freedom for the model rhythm. | 07-24-2014 |
20140206445 | STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREIN GAME PROGRAM, GAME APPARATUS, GAME SYSTEM, AND GAME PROCESSING METHOD - An input is acquired, and in accordance with the input, a sequence of game processing from beginning a predetermined game to obtaining a result of the game is performed. Then, a game image corresponding to the game processing from the beginning of the game to a state of the game still in progress is displayed on the portable display apparatus. A game image corresponding to at least part of the game processing from the beginning of the game to the state of the game still in progress is redisplayed on another display apparatus, and thereafter, a game image corresponding to the game processing until the obtaining of the result of the game is displayed on the other display apparatus. | 07-24-2014 |
20150314202 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM STORING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE DEVICE - An example of information processing system includes a storage device; and an information processing device for performing near field communication with the storage device. The storage device has an external appearance representing, three-dimensionally or two-dimensionally, an object that appears in a virtual space generated by execution of a predetermined application program by the information processing device. The storage device stores object information on the object. The information processing device writes, to the storage device, character image information specifying an image of a character created based on an instruction of a user. The information processing device executes a predetermined process using at least one of the object information and the character image information read from the storage device. | 11-05-2015 |
