Storage medium having music playing program stored therein and music playing apparatus therefor
First Claim
1. A storage medium having stored therein a music playing program to be executed in a computer of an apparatus operated in accordance with an acceleration detected by an input device including an acceleration sensor for detecting the acceleration in at least one axial direction, causing the computer to execute:
- an acceleration data acquisition step of acquiring acceleration data outputted from the acceleration sensor;
an acceleration calculation step of calculating a magnitude of the acceleration by using the acquired acceleration data;
a track data selection step of selecting at least one piece of track data representing a target music to play from music piece data including a plurality of pieces of track data stored in memory means, based on the calculated magnitude of the acceleration; and
a music performance step of outputting data for controlling a sound generated from a sound generation device, based on the track data selected in the track data selection step.

Abstract
Acceleration data outputted from an acceleration sensor provided in an input device is acquired and a magnitude of an acceleration is calculated. Next, based on the calculated magnitude of the acceleration, at least one piece of track data representing a target music to play is selected from music piece data including a plurality of pieces of track data stored in memory means. Then, based on the selected track data, data for controlling a sound generated from a sound generation device is outputted.
