Collector interest

The limited Genteiban edition of Photo Genic, a romantic visual novel published by Sony Computer Entertainment and kept to the Japanese market. A niche title whose appeal rests on the faithful audience of romance adventures rather than on broad fame, it draws its value from this limited first run, never reissued. Desirability rests on the scarcity of this edition and on the interest of a circle of period visual-novel fans.
