A first grounded portion is at least one of portions of an apparatus that are grounded, and vibrates in accordance with a vibration of at least a first vibration unit. A second grounded portion is at least one of the portions of the apparatus that are grounded, and vibrates in accordance with a vibration of at least a second vibration unit. Then, a first control signal for controlling the vibration of the first vibration unit and a second control signal for controlling the vibration of the second vibration unit are generated, whereby, in a state where the apparatus is on a certain surface, the apparatus moves on the certain surface by a vibration of the first grounded portion grounded on the certain surface and/or a vibration of the second grounded portion grounded on the certain surface.

A normal mode is a processing mode in which processing based on a first architecture for an information processing method is executed, and a compatible mode is a processing mode in which processing based on a second architecture for another information processing method is executed. In the normal mode, first result data obtained by executing the processing based on the first architecture is inputted to an output section configured to output inputted data to a user. In the compatible mode, second result data obtained by executing the processing based on the second architecture is inputted to the output section, in a manner adapting the second result data to input of the output section.
