Collector interest

Business-management sim from Coconuts Japan, never released outside Japan, making it a niche Famicom exclusive. Fully Japanese-text management titles appeal to a narrow audience, yet a small print run and the scarcity of publishers like Coconuts Japan lift even the loose price well above what an obscure game would suggest. The interest is completist more than ludic, driven by the difficulty of locating a copy rather than playing it.
