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

Die hard fans of the Warrior Princess now can now bring her along wherever they go, thanks to the release of XENA: Warrior Princess. Xena comes to the Game Boy Color with all the thrills and chills the fans of her TV show have come to expect. You take control of Xena as she does battle on land and in the water. Try to master fast-scrolling rides full of dangerous obstacles as you run, jump, climb, and swim your way through 16 pulse-pounding levels of heroic challenges. Use the Game Boy Color infrared ports to hook up with a friend who also has the game and you can unlock special hidden levels in each cartridge. This game could only be more fun if it came with your own chakram.
