摘要

While an example terminal device is being held with its long sides extending horizontally, when a left-right direction is inputted by using a right analog stick, a first virtual camera is directed to a left-right direction in a virtual space. On the other hand, while the terminal device is being held with its long side extending vertically, when an apparent left-right direction, that is, an up-down direction in the state where the terminal device is held with its long sides extending horizontally, is inputted by using a right analog stick, the first virtual camera is directed to the left-right direction in the virtual space.

1. A display control system configured to control how an image is displayed in accordance with an operation performed via an individual operation device which includes a direction input mechanism directly operable by a user, a sensor for detecting change in an attitude of the operation device, and a display, the display control system comprising:
an input section configured to obtain input data from the direction input mechanism indicative of an input direction designated by a user operating the direction input mechanism of the operation device; a virtual camera first controller configured to change a pointing direction of a first virtual camera in a virtual space based upon the input data obtained via a user operating the direction input mechanism, wherein the input data obtained via the direction input mechanism is modified based upon a detected change in an attitude of the operation device, and the virtual camera first controller controls the pointing direction of the first virtual camera in accordance with the modified input data; and a display controller configured to cause the display to display an image produced by the first virtual camera.
