The scene is I'm a totally knightly dude trying to save the world and all that
and I walk into a shop. The shopkeeper says to me: ここは ぶきとぼうぐの みせです (This is
the weapon & armor shop.) The game is old so no kanji in this one.

The next thing they say to me is: ごようは どちらです？

Then I have 2 options I can pick:

> ものを かう (buy thing)  
>  ものを うる (sell thing)

I'm not certain what the ごようは どちらです？ line means. My guess would be something
like "Which do you desire?" I'm not sure though. The ご I think is just to be
honorific and the よう is desire?

_Edit_ Thank you for the answer Jimmy. I marked this as answered. That sounds
much more accurate than what I had. I'll add this to my study rotation. Thanks
again!

question
meaning
What's this JRPG Famicom game shopkeeper saying to me: ごようは　どちらです？
I believe ごよう in this context is 御用. It means "business" or "errand".

So「ごようは どちらです」means "what is your business?" or more literally, "your
business, which one is it?"
