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.

This game was not released in America or Europe as part of the Classic NES Series, but was rather exclusive to Japan. Few to no alterations were made to the game, as it was intended to be a direct port of Mappy.
