Collector interest

Japanese 3D platformer from Sunsoft built on the Journey to the West legend, with Sun Wukong as hero. It stayed an NTSC-J exclusive aimed at younger players and never crossed over. Its value comes from the wide gap typical of Japanese filler: trivial loose prices against a climbing sealed figure for lack of preserved stock. Of interest mainly to fans of obscure Japanese PSone platformers, not for any reputation.
