Game device and storage medium storing game program

A computer-readable storage medium, storing a game program to be executed by a computer of a game device for performing a game process based on data outputted from a first sensor and data outputted from a second sensor, wherein the first sensor outputs first data representing a value according to an orientation or movement of a first input device and the second sensor outputs second data representing a value according to an orientation or movement of a second input device, the program instructing the computer to perform:

• a data obtaining step of obtaining the first data and the second data;
• a similarity degree calculating step of calculating, based on the first data and the second data, a degree of similarity between a state of the first input device with respect to the orientation or movement thereof and a state of the second input device with respect to the orientation or movement thereof;
• a first game process step of performing a first game process based on the first data or the second data;
• and
• a second game process step of performing a second game process based on the first data and the second data only if a value of the degree of similarity is greater than a predetermined value.

A game device for performing a game process based on data outputted from a first sensor and data outputted from a second sensor, wherein the first sensor outputs first data representing a value according to an orientation or movement of a first input device and the second sensor outputs second data representing a value according to an orientation or movement of a second input device, the game device comprising:

• a data obtaining section for obtaining the first data from the first sensor and the second data from the second sensor;
• a similarity degree calculating section for calculating, based on the first data and the second data, a degree of similarity between a state of the first input device with respect to the orientation or movement thereof and a state of the second input device with respect to the orientation or movement thereof;
• a first game process section for performing a first game process based on the first data or the second data;
• and
• a second game process section for performing a second game process based on the first data and the second data only if a value of the degree of similarity is greater than a predetermined value.
