I don't mind having a few sloppy looking games among my games. as long as I know what game it is I don't really care. But if it does not work then I get upset. all three of these games. even the gift without the stickers worked ok. I've purchased at least 2 cartridges with sticker damages before, but the cartridge plays fine. 2 of them had their cover sticker ripped clean off one game was a copy of "Zelda Ocarina Of Time" and the other one was given to me for free by a shop owner "Cruzin USA" for the N64 console Both of these games are for the Nintendo 64 console. I also got a cheaper copy Knife Edge Nose Gunner for the N64 as well with a severely damaged sticker Not angry but severely curious about the following question I still don't know why the stickers were damaged to begin with, my Zelda game for the N64 has a pink sticky note attached. Can anyone explain why some stickers get so damaged to begin with? Do you think some child or teen or adult got mad and scratched the sticker off, does anyone know how this even happens ??? |

I picked up a copy of Final Fantasy II(US) for dirt cheap because the label had been ripped almost off. I already had one in better condition, so I customized the label-less one. |

Not all people are clean when it comes to personal life. same goes for little kids pre 8 years they love to destroy stuff. obviously games had to be kid proof but the lable does not matter, if it works it works all that mattered. I mean cmon even the official nintendo training video for employees from back in the day showed nasty brown sauce nes consoles. it's super common that some people are extremely nasty and that especially little kids abuse their stuff. just imagine what would happen with fragile lables. a console is durable paper is not durable. https://youtu.be/WYjgHLFZMa0?t=37 |
