Games With Sick Shop Themes
I'm classifying a shop as any area or menu screen where the player can spend resources to obtain an amount of other resources or power up certain attributes. Ranked in no particular order. Feel free to leave suggestions in the comments since there are probably a lot of JRPGs with sick shop themes that I'm missing.

Thanks for the suggestions, I would have probably remembered to include SMT IV and P3 myself if I did this list less late in the night lol

Ring Fit Adventure has one theme for each of it's shopkeepers, and it harmonizes when they're together.

I never played any Digimon World but i really like the DW2 shop theme.

Ronde OST sucks in general, but Shop 2 is really great.

And now taking advantage since im talking about MegaTen, SMT Nine shop theme, SMT IV black market and P3 Tanaka's amazing comodities are pretty catchy.
