I guess at that point, the wrapping could simply serve as a way to preserve the box a little better, which would still make it sad for us to unwrap it. <br /><br />Fortunately in this case, we ended up receiving multiple copies of the game, so we were able to add the other copy to the playable collection and leave this game in the wrapping for display purposes.
