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.
How it feels
An unreleased 3D Classics take on the NES Tennis game, abandoned due to technical challenges with 3D perspective and collision.

About
A "3D Classics" version of Tennis was attempted because of the game's perspective, but the developers found that it looked unimpressive in 3D and that they would need to recode the collision detection from scratch.
