A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a main body apparatus configured to wirelessly communicate with one or more external apparatuses in accordance with BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and to hold in advance a list comprising a plurality of GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) databases, first information from a first external apparatus that has not communicated with the main body apparatus, identifying, at the main body apparatus, a GATT database corresponding to the first information from the plurality of GATT databases based on the first information, and wirelessly communicating, at the main body apparatus, with the first external apparatus based on the identified GATT database.

An electronic device configured to connect through a wired connection to each of a plurality of other different electronic devices is provided. The electronic device includes a control unit, an obtaining unit configured to obtain a potential produced upon wired connection to at least one of the other electronic devices, and two first terminals configured to electrically be connected to two respective terminals of a plurality of terminals provided at the at least one of the other electronic devices. The control unit is configured to transmit or receive a signal adapted to communication via I2C through the two first terminals when the obtained potential has a first value, to transmit or receive a signal adapted to communication via UART through the two first terminals when the obtained potential has a second value, and to transmit or receive a signal adapted to communication via SPI through the two first terminals when the obtained potential has a third value.

A controller is provided to improve keytop operability. The controller includes a first wall, a second wall facing the first wall, a keytop pivotally located in a space between the first wall and the second wall, and an elastic member disposed between the keytop and the first wall. The keytop includes a shaft extending toward the first wall, and an extension at an end of the shaft. The extension has a maximum width greater than a maximum width of the shaft when viewed in a thickness direction of the first wall. The first wall or the second wall includes a restricting portion having an opening with a minimum width greater than the maximum width of the shaft and less than the maximum width of the extension. The restricting portion receives the shaft in the opening and positions the extension between the opening and the first wall to regulate pivoting of the keytop.

Power supply device is connectable to first gaming device and second gaming device to feed power to connection device, connection device being first gaming device or second gaming device connected to power supply device. Power supply device includes communication controller configured to transmit and receive data to and from connection device, determiner configured to determine whether connection device is first gaming device or second gaming device based on data received by communication controller from connection device, and storage storing first identifier corresponding to first gaming device and second identifier corresponding to second gaming device. Communication controller transmits first identifier or second identifier to connection device based on determination result obtained by determiner.

A communication system includes a first electronic device configured to connect through a wired connection to another electronic device and a second electronic device configured to connect through a wired connection to the first electronic device. The first electronic device includes a determination unit configured to obtain a potential produced when the first electronic device is connected through the wired connection to the another electronic device and to determine a type of the another electronic device based on the obtained potential, a processing unit configured to prepare data including device information of the first electronic device based on determination that the another electronic device is the second electronic device and a request from the second electronic device, and a communication unit configured to start communication with the second electronic device after preparation of the data is completed and to allow the second electronic device to obtain the device information of the first electronic device. The second electronic device is configured to perform processing based on the device information of the first electronic device.

An example game controller is removably attachable to a main unit having a main unit-side slide member and configured to execute a game process. The game controller having a front surface and at least first and second side surfaces relative to the front surface. The game controller includes a controller-side slide member. The controller-side slide member protrudes from the second side surface and is configured for slidably engaging with the main unit-side slide member in a slide direction. The controller-side slide member includes a lower surface and an upper surface. The lower surface extends from the first end to the second end of the controller-side slide member in a direction substantially perpendicular to the slide direction. The game controller includes a first operation control. The first operation control is provided on the lower surface.

Based on first input data corresponding to an operation on an operation portion of an input device and second input data corresponding to a mouse sensor, a first response having a first data structure including first data based on the first input data and a second response having a second data structure including second data based on the first input data and third data based on the second input data are made in response to a first request and a second request from an application.

A computer is caused to: acquire first data based on a two-dimensional operation position of a stick of an input device including a mouse sensor at a bottom portion thereof, the stick being provided at a side portion connected to the bottom portion; and make a first response including second data generated based on the first data, in response to a first request from an application being executed. The second data indicates a value that (i) has a greater absolute value as a two-dimensional operation position of the stick becomes farther from an initial position of the stick, (ii) indicates a negative value when the two-dimensional operation position of the stick is within a first range, and (iii) indicates a positive value when the two-dimensional operation position of the stick is within a second range on the opposite side of the first range across the initial position.

An information processing system comprises: one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: determining a plurality of games, comprising a first game, based on first data associated with a user; acquiring a video associated respectively with each of the plurality of games; determining a first recommendation reason for recommending the first game, based on data associated with the first game and second data associated with the user; and generating a first image comprising the acquired video associated with the first game and the first recommendation reason; generating a second image comprising an item for acquiring the first game based on user input.

In an example where a processing unit configured to generate image data performs processing in connection with a plurality of applications, there is room for improvement in how the processing unit is to be used. When a first processing unit performs first application processing and second application processing, a second processing unit performs processing for generating, based on the first application processing, second image data at a second resolution lower than a first resolution in a second time period within a unit time period, the second time period being shorter than a first time period, and performs processing for generating, based on the second application processing, third image data in a third time period within the unit time period, the third time period being different from the second time period. An output unit outputs an output image to a display, the output image including a second area where the second image data is shown and a third area where the third image data is shown, the second area being smaller than a first area and the third area being different from the second area.
