Abstract
A game apparatus controls a game in which a user-controlled character and an opponent character hit a ball. When the user gives an instruction for hitting the ball with a button of a controller, a hit control unit determines on the basis of the type of the button which is pressed by the user a shot when the character hits the ball, calculates the trajectory of the ball hit based on the shot, and displays the flying ball on a screen. A shot display control unit displays the figure marked on the button close to the ball on the screen, as information for specifying the shot.
