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

DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Black Label is a revamped version of the original DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu, with new mechanics and a brand new soundtrack. It features much of the same structure of DaiFukkatsu, but with a few crucial differences, notably, the game only has one loop, and now features a player-controller rank system (known as Red Mode). This version is programmed by Shinobu Yagawa.
