Abstract
A non-limiting example information processing apparatus that functions as a game apparatus includes a first LCD and a second LCD, and usually, a game screen of a single-play game is displayed on the first LCD and a list screen is displayed on the second LCD. In the list screen, at least an icon of a player of another game apparatus capable of performing a communication is displayed. That is, during a time that game processing of the single-play is being performed, the game screen is displayed and a list of one or more players capable of playing a battle-play is displayed. The player sends an offer of a battle-play to a desired player through an operation using the list screen at an arbitrary timing during a time that the game processing of the single-play is being performed.
