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

Vs. Wrecking Crew is an action game released by Nintendo in 1984. Play as Mario or Luigi and break down designated walls to demolish buildings. Be warned, however, the buildings are home to monsters, and they wander around the floors to bother player's mission. Watch out for monsters while quickly destroying the walls.
