    Definitely not a waste of time. Old game boxes like this are rare and works of art, and obviously this is a very iconic one. I don't even try to collect the boxes since they are so expensive now but if someone gave me this I would definitely display it.

      Thanks mate yes I'm glad it's saved and not just put in the bin

    Really nice! Pop that in a plastic coffin and the patina encased in a glossy box will make it look like a real museum piece. So glad you saved that one from the bin!

    As someone who's on the hunt for a box to complete my original Zelda, the more of them there are in the world the better. And I'd be very happy if I came across one in that condition. Great work!

    @IowaRetroGamerDad ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you wanna try something, I've heard using a Iron like for clothes can help make the box more cripsy and less wrinkling. Only issue is I don't know if it would damage it more or what

    While some people find it to be travesty, i usually do color over those spots with color markers and i wish you would do this the same, this has so much potential to look almost new with some coloring

    Great work mate, I've been meaning to do similar with my Atari Pacman box which is not only squashed but quite ripped and missing flaps so won't be able to repair as good as yours but should be able to improve it a fair bit. You've inspired me to get on with it hopefully next weekend or two if I get chance.

      ​@ginger hippy gaming If you place it into a box with a dehumidifier it will keep it from molding. Like just a laundry hamper with a towel on top. 24 hours or less should do not to long. Because of the water you used to straightin it out. Only reason I know this is because I used to work with cardboard and it's definitely unsealed card stock. I'm sure the wax coating has done and gone quite a bit.
