Collector interest

Japanese horror action-RPG from SCE, released only in Japan in early 2003 and kept thoroughly obscure. Its sealed price climbs near the top because this little-known, low-print title was never reissued or localized, making an unopened copy extraordinarily hard to find. Loose remains affordable: it is the sheer scarcity of shrinkwrap, not mass demand, that drives the collector interest of this NTSC-J exclusive.
