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

Utacchi is a rhythm video game developed and published by Konami for the Nintendo DS in 2010. It was released exclusively in Japan under the Pop'n Music series. The game plays with the system held in "book style" as the player interacts with falling notes using the stylus. The name 'Utacchi' is a portmanteau of the Japanese words "uta", meaning 'song', and "tachi", a loan word from English meaning 'touch'.
