Abstract:
First, operation data is acquired from an input device that is operated by a user. Next, a target is configured, by utilizing the operation data, within a predetermined range which is frontward in a forward direction of a course where a user object should move along and which is defined based on the course. Next, a moving direction of the user object is determined based on a position of the user object and a position of the target. Next, the user object is moved toward the moving direction determined by a moving direction determining means.
Abstract:
A game system includes a game apparatus and a controller, and the controller is furnished with an acceleration sensor. For example, a player performs a boxing game according to an acceleration input by throwing a hook or straight punch while holding the controller. When it is determined that an acceleration input is started, it is assumed that the kind is a straight although the kind of the input has not been identified yet, and a drawing of a glove object moving along a path of a straight is started. When it is determined that the kind is a hook on the basis of the acceleration acquired thereafter, the glove object moving along a hook path is drawn.
Abstract:
A game system includes a game apparatus and a controller. The controller is furnished with an acceleration sensor for detecting accelerations in at least two axis directions. Game processing corresponding to the kind of an acceleration input by means of the controller is executed. For determining the kind, reference timing when acceleration in a first-axis direction is below a threshold value to take on a minimum value is detected. Then, it is determined whether or not an angle between acceleration change vectors before and after the reference timing is equal to or more than a predetermined angle. When the angle is not equal to or more than the predetermined angle, it is determined that the acceleration input is an acceleration input in any one of the two-axis directions, and when the angle is equal to or more than the predetermined angle, it is determined that the acceleration input is an acceleration input in a direction including the two-axis directions as components.
Abstract:
A data obtaining unit repeatedly obtains acceleration data. An acceleration vector generation unit generates first acceleration vector in accordance with first acceleration data obtained by the data obtaining unit, and generates second acceleration vector in accordance with second acceleration data time-sequentially obtained by the data obtaining unit following the first acceleration data. A cross product direction calculation unit calculates a direction of a cross product between the first acceleration vector and the second acceleration vector. A swing direction identification unit identifies a swing direction in which the input device is swung in accordance with the direction of the cross product.
Abstract:
The game apparatus obtains angular velocity data and acceleration data from an input device equipped with at least an angular velocity sensor and an acceleration sensor, and determines whether or not a ball has been thrown in accordance with the angular velocity data. When it is determined that ball-throwing is fulfilled, the game apparatus calculates the intensity of swinging the input device and a curve amount. The game apparatus applies a force and a curve to a ball in accordance with the calculated intensity of swinging and the curve amount, and performs a process of causing the ball to move and curve in a predetermined direction.

Abstract:
Operation data is obtained from an input device and is stored into a memory, and initial state data indicating an attitude or a position of an object in a virtual game world is calculated with predetermined start timing using acceleration data included in the obtained operation data. Depending on acceleration data included in operation data sequentially obtained on and after the start timing, change amount data for sequentially changing the attitude or position of the object over time is calculated. Thereafter, the attitude or position of the object disposed in the virtual game world, depending on the initial state data, is changed, depending on the change amount data, to perform a game process of controlling a motion of the object.
Abstract:
An exemplary game system and the like which do not impair ease of playing a game are provided. An exemplary game system for performing game processing includes: an operation processing section configured to control a player character in a virtual space on the basis of an operation of a player; a condition determination section configured to determine whether or not a positional relationship between the player character and a predetermined object meets a predetermined condition; and an adjacency processing section configured to perform a process which makes the player character less likely to be close to the object, on the basis of the determination of the condition determination section.
