The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

About

The Game Boy Color Magical Drop is heavily based on Magical Drop III. One notable omission from previous Magical Drop titles is the lack of a Story mode. This leaves the standard Endless mode as the only single-player mode. It is the only Magical Drop game that has never been released in Japan.
