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

IIDX Red is one of the many titles in Konami's IIDX rhythm game series, featuring more than 80 tracks, primarily from the arcade version of the same title. As usual for the beatmania series, the player is given seven piano keys and a turntable, and must play along with the notes that scroll down the screen to play the music. All of the game modes from the previous title have returned: Arcade, Expert, Class, Beginner's, Free, Training, and Gallery. The game also includes support for Internet score ranking (now discontinued) and custom-made Arcade courses.
