Hey guys, can you shed some light on the Castlevania 64 box? Just picked up a CIB Castlevania 64 copy and found the box to be a bit thinner and different then my other CIB games. Just to name a few differences, the inside is white vs. the other games are more cardboard type. Just wondering if this is normal or not. Please help.



*Figured a Pic was not necessary, just really looking for others to look at their boxes so I can get an idea. Thanks guys!*

    I know that the shrink wrap on my sealed copy that I sold a year ago was different (had no H-seal) and mine was bought long before fake boxes and counterfeit sealing were a thing... and bought for a price so cheap that it would not make sense to fake it (under $8)... and bought from the same non-gaming national source with several other legitimately sealed games (think: "closeout store"). I looked at other sealed copies and their seals were identical to mine (no "H-seal").



    It seems that this particular game was packaged differently than most so I would not doubt it if the box were different in some ways too. It might be kinda like other US NTSC SNES game titles where some were made in Mexico and others were made in Japan.

    Edit: Forgot we're talking N64 here.

    Mine is white on the inside, but its not thinner. This one does not have a pull put tray, it has the cart holder built into the insides of the box. Picture of yours might help.

    Here's another thread where people noticed the same seal difference as me, which kinda confirms my own research from last year:

    If the seal is different from normal then something about the process of packaging it for retail was different from normal and it stands to reason that the box could also be different from normal. Wish I had an open one to look at.

    Yes I can confirm is white in the inside, and maybe thinner, it's the same material as the box from star wars battle for naboo.

    Thank you guys so much! Makes me feel a bit better, was going to report this guy, but didn't also have a reason to think it would be fake, just looked different. - ANSWERS RECEIVED, COULD LOCK TOPIC ADMIN =)
