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

Experience the first ever football game for the NES. Enjoy 'real football' as you direct your team up and down the field. Pick from seven international teams—USA, Great Britain, France, Germany, Brazil, Japan, and Spain—and perform all the kickoffs, throw-ins, goal kicks, and corner kicks seen in a real friendly match. You can choose the skill level of the opposing team on a scale from one to five, so as your team improves, so do your opponents. Select a computer team or play against a friend. You even choose the length of the match, and as time ticks down, do your best to score the winning goal!
