Abstract

See full text

Coordinates on a detection surface are obtained using data output from a pointing device. The obtained coordinates are used to perform a designated coordinate-related process which is a game process. On the other hand, a designated coordinate-unrelated process is performed which is a game process which does not use the obtained coordinates. Also, it is detected whether or not coordinates within a predetermined region of the detection surface have been obtained. Depending on a result of the detection, the designated coordinate-related process and the designated coordinate-unrelated process are switched and executed.
