A first controller includes a first operation data generation section for generating first operation data in accordance with a motion of a first controller body included in the first controller. A second controller includes a second operation data generation section for generating second operation data in accordance with a direction input operation performed by a player. A game apparatus includes a game process means, a display process means and a designated coordinate determination means. The first controller includes an image pickup section. The image pickup section is fixed to the first controller body and is operable to take an image of a periphery along a predetermined direction from the first controller body. The first operation data includes one selected from the group consisting of an image taken by the image pickup section and a result of subjecting the image taken by the image pickup section to a predetermined calculation.
