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

Bowser's Revenge 4 has 8 Worlds and an additional Star World, and several unique bosses made specifically for this game. There is quite a fair bit of custom ASM, especially in the Star World, which should make this an interesting experience. The difficulty varies as it's fairly easy in the first few worlds, but difficulty increases a bit past World 6, especially in World 8 and the Star World. Unfortunately, I can't choose both Standard: Hard and Standard: Normal, but just know it gets more difficult as the game progresses. As for the bosses, none should be too difficult or too confusing... maybe.
