Abstract
An example of an information processing apparatus repeatedly acquires input positions detected by a pointing device, each position corresponding to a position on a display screen. The information processing apparatus executes a predetermined first process on an object in a virtual game space, at least on a condition that an input position detected when an input to the pointing device is started is within a predetermined area. The information processing apparatus sets a reference position, based on an input position regarding an input to the pointing device. The information processing apparatus executes a movement process for causing the object to move, based on the reference position and on the input position of the input which is continuously performed from start of the input to the pointing device.
