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

In this Pokémon Emerald rom hack, trainers capture and battle animated 'puppets' based on characters from the Touhou series. The hack also updates the battle system, using a different set of type advantages/disadvantages and implementing the physical/special split from later Pokémon games.
