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

This is a hack of the Super Mario 64 Shindou Pak Taiou, or Rumble Edition. Using the Super Mario 64 decomp, many improvements have been made, such as the addition of English text, a reimplemented BLJ and “So long-a. Bowser!” sound clip, a fixed smoke texture, and tweaks to Mario’s voice lines.
