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

Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team is a dual screen version of the Game Boy Advance title. The DS will combine both Team Protoman and Team Colonel in one game, but add specific content unique to the Nintendo DS version. The second screen comes into play by giving players direct access to their Cyber Map and PET. The microphone can be "yelled" into to power up Mega Man during battle. And using the Nintendo DS's GBA slot, players can carry over battle chips earned in past Mega Man Battle Network games for use in the Nintendo DS edition.
