An example peripheral apparatus is configured to communicate with a game controller configured to control a game apparatus. The peripheral apparatus includes a sensor configured to detect a user input, a processor and a transmitter. The peripheral apparatus is configured to operate in one of a plurality of modes including a first mode and a second mode while a communication connection between the peripheral apparatus and the game controller is established. In the first mode, the processor generates a command configured to cause the game controller to execute an operation based on peripheral apparatus data in accordance with a user input detected by the sensor, and the transmitter transmits the command to the game controller. In the second mode, the transmitter transmits the peripheral apparatus data to the game controller.
