Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire is one of the most graphically sophisticated PC Engine CD games and also one of the most popular. Don't believe me? Try it yourself!
In 2008, this game was ported to the PSP as part of the Ginga Ojousama Densetsu Collection (in the west of the Galaxy Fraulein Collection) along with games like Galaxy Fraulein Yuna and Galaxy Fraulein Yuna 2. Sapphire seems to be out of that collection for obvious reasons, but these the game has one thing in common - the creator of the characters Mika Akitaka.
