Collector interest

NEC InterChannel's Saturn port of Steam-Heart's blends shooting with a steampunk visual novel, kept Japan-only and restricted to an adult audience. Its adult visual-novel nature kept it off mainstream channels, hence a low-key spread and a high complete value. The scarcity stems both from niche content and from a modest 1998 run near the very end of the machine's life in Japan.
