Abstract: A non-transitory storage medium encoded with a computer readable information processing program executed by an information processing apparatus is provided. The information processing apparatus includes a communication portion which exchanges data with an information storage medium through near field wireless communication. The information processing program causes the information processing apparatus to perform the following acts. The acts include writing available content information in the information storage medium, reading the available content information from the information storage medium, and updating availability of a content based on the read available content information.

Abstract: Designated coordinates, on the display screen, designated by the pointing device are acquired, and target coordinates, in the virtual game space, corresponding to the designated coordinates are calculated. A distance from reference coordinates set on the display screen to the designated coordinates is calculated and speed information based on the distance is calculated. A predetermined object is moved toward the target coordinates in the virtual game space at a movement speed represented by the speed information.

Abstract: A predetermined action is performed between a player object and another object positioned in a first determination range when a player designates said another object by controlling a pointing device. On the other hand, when the player performs an operation so as to designate said another object positioned outside the first determination range, a position of the player object is updated based on the designated position.
