==Layout==
The first floor is the service area where the player can use the ATM or payphone. The right clerk sells tickets to the [[Topolla Theater]] while the left clerk is where items can be returned. On the second floor is the food court which contains a grocery store and a burger shop. An arms dealer can also be found in the back warehouse.
 
The third floor has a drugstore and a shop where weapons can be bought, and the fourth floor sells toys ans sporting goods. In the back room is the office where the [[Dept. Store Spook]] is fought.
 
==In ''EarthBound''==
On the first visit to Fourside, the store is closed. A man outside states that ever since [[Geldegarde Monotoli]] became mayor, the store had been having strange happenings. Later the store re-opens and Ness and his friends can shop there. However, upon leaving, [[Paula]] will be kidnapped and a blackout will occur. All of the people in the store vanish during the blackout, and the store becomes flooded with enemies. The blackout was caused by the Dept. Store Spook, who kidnapped Paule, and requests Ness to head to the top floor to rescue Paula.
 
Ness confrounts the Dept. Store Spook in the office, but Paula is nowhere to be found. Ness the fights and defeats it, in which it states that Paula is with Monotoli. After the Spook is defeated and the blackout ends, it is later blamed on the mouse found on the first floor.<ref>"Mysterious department store blackout caused by mouse" -Newspaper article</ref>
