How much more valuable are games that are sealed?

[DaytonaUSA]

I'm wondering how much more games are that are sealed. I ordered a copy of a psone import that's already pretty uncommon. Much to my surprise, the "used" game was sealed.. brand new. I'm wondering, should I take it out of the plastic wrap? The only old game that was "new" that I opened was Virtual Open Tennis. I figured it wasn't worth much, so why not open it.

 

The game in question btw is SquareSoft's Internal Section.

Are you sure it was the original shrinkwrap? It seems that Japanese shops really like to re-shrinkwrap stuff (I think I even got some loose Famicom carts that had shrinkwrap on them...)

The only sealed game I ever opened was Seaman.

bet you regret doing that *lol*

no, nothing narrated by leonard nemoy could possibly be boring...

 

it's okay--it doesn't have to be your first--just pretend it never happened and open up another game ASAP.

Actually nah. I bought that game to play it. It wasn't shrink wrapped and the box was a little beat up anyway. It had a sticker seal. Here's a pic.

 

 

You can see where someone decided to do their math homework.

Yes, I'm 100% positive it's the original seal. Japanese psone games had a very distinct plastic wrap with a flap on the top of the back of the case.
