These are eroges but instead of reading text, its an actual anime. Also, there are the two unique eroges named "Summer Days" and "School Days". Its an old game and not the best, but there aren't many of these being translated. A classic Japanese stat-based dating sim that can be easily found is "True Love". The writting is fairly well done and enjoyable. Its a mixture between dating sim and the normal eroge you date girls but there isn't a stat based system.

Furthermore, the multiple story arcs associated with each of the characters and the different paths that you can take give it a high replay value.

Personally, I think the stories are much better told through the VN medium (not because the VN has H scenes in them). If you are familiar with the animes Air, Tsukihime, Kanon, or Fate Stay Night, they are all based off of eroge games.
Furthermore, the H scenes are much more satisfying when it feels you have worked for them. Many people would rather watch characters that they have "interacted" with rather than random characters. Most VN's have a gallery feature that allows you to replay the sex scenes by themselves for quick access.
Many have deep emotional stories to them while some are just escuses for characters to have sex. Furthermore, depending the the VN, faping may or maynot be the main purpose of the "game". This allows you to have deeper attachments with the main character (representing yourself) and the other characters. The reason why eroge games are popular is that you have an oppurtunity to affect the actions of the protagonist through a first person perspective. The other kind is the "choose your own adventure style" which is more like a book. These can be fun as you attmept to chase after a particular girl(s) and you get an H scene as a reward. One is the dating sim type that can be considered a game.
I am a big fan of Eroge games and have played many of them.
