PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a storage medium that can be used for general purposes.SOLUTION: An information processing system includes a storage medium and an information processing apparatus that performs short-distance wireless communication with the storage medium. The storage medium has an appearance representing, in two or three dimensions, an object which appears in a virtual space generated through execution of a predetermined application program by the information processing apparatus. The storage medium also stores object information regarding the object. The information processing apparatus writes character image information which identifies an image of a character generated based on an instruction from a user, into the storage medium. The information processing apparatus executes a predetermined process using at least one of the object information and the character image information read from the storage medium. 【課題】汎用的に利用可能な記憶媒体を提供する。【解決手段】情報処理システムは、記憶媒体と、当該記憶媒体と近距離無線通信を行う情報処理装置とを含む。記憶媒体は、情報処理装置が所定のアプリケーションプログラムを実行することによって生成される仮想空間に登場するオブジェクトを立体的または平面的に表す外観を有する。また、記憶媒体は、オブジェクトに関するオブジェクト情報を記憶する。情報処理装置は、ユーザの指示に基づき作成されたキャラクタの画像を特定するキャラクタ画像情報を記憶媒体に書き込む。情報処理装置は、記憶媒体から読み出したオブジェクト情報とキャラクタ画像情報との少なくともいずれかを用いて所定の処理を実行する。【選択図】図６
