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

Endless Attack Mode will be added to the Game Menu. Try to get as far as you can in a stage without end. (Distance measured in "screens.") Mega Man must make his way through an "endless" version of Dr. Wily's fortress, facing difficult enemies, challenging rooms, and all eight of the Robot Masters. Players start out with no extra lives, parts or energy tanks, but have all of the special weapons. There are 42 levels of about 3 screens each, including boss areas, and the game randomly determines how these are generated.
