Abstract: To provide an information processing device capable of improving operability in an information processing device in which when a position in any of a plurality of determination areas for a plurality of selected image candidates is designated by a user, a selected image candidate corresponding to the determination area is designated as a selected image. A designated position obtaining unit (106) obtains a position designated by a user. A designation unit (110), when the position obtained by the designated position obtaining unit (106) is included in a determination area for a selected image candidate, designates the selected image candidate as a selected image.

Abstract: To provide a game device capable of allowing a user, when selecting any selected image candidate, to experience a real feeling of the relationship with another selected image candidate. A determination unit (70a) determines whether or not the designated area designated by a user is included in the determination area for a selected image candidate. When the designated area is included in the determination area, the designation unit (72a) designates the selected image candidate corresponding to the determination area as a selected image. A determination area control unit (68) changes the size of a determination area for another selection candidate image, based on a parameter stored so as to be correlated to a combination of the selected image candidate designated as a selected image and the other selected image candidate.

Abstract: The game apparatus indicates to a player the slide playing technique that not less than two of fret buttons are operated according to the alignment sequence thereof. When the operation in replay to the indication is evaluated, the game apparatus determines whether the operation for the slide playing technique has succeeded or not, under such condition that with respect to the operations of adjacent two fret buttons, the operation to the preceding fret button to be operated precedingly is detected, the operation to the next fret button to be operated next is detected, and after detecting the operation, the release operation of the preceding fret button is detected, the condition being at least one part of required condition.
