Abstract: Provided is a new information processing apparatus that emits an operation sound during an operation on a plurality of GUI components. The information processing apparatus comprises: an input detection unit for detecting primary input and secondary input to each of a plurality of buttons displayed on a screen; an operation sound output unit for outputting an operation sound in time with the primary input to one of the plurality of buttons; and a process execution unit for, when the secondary input to the button to which the primary input has been given is detected, executing a process that is assigned to the button and is different from the outputting of the operation sound, where the operation sound output unit raises the pitch of the output operation sound higher as the detection interval of the primary input to different buttons of the plurality of buttons becomes shorter.

Abstract: A storage medium storing therein a program, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a game system and a mobile device are disclosed. For example, disclosed is a non-transitory storage medium storing therein a program that is readable by a computer of an information processing apparatus, the program being configured to cause the computer to: acquire input coordinates of input performed based on an operation performed by a user; generate drawing information for displaying a path corresponding to the input coordinates on a display apparatus; determine a movement direction of the input based on a change in the input coordinates, which are acquired continuously while the input is performed; generate sound information of a virtual writing sound that is changed based on the movement direction in response to the input coordinates changing; and output the sound information of the virtual writing sound to a speaker.
