When I first saw your pic, I started horrifying about the shelf space it takes up. Actually if that is CD-sized then it makes sense. A good way to keep the game book intact.

Why'd he do that? Was there never a box for Yars' Revenge? I'm confused. Looks great, though.
Why? Because he wanted to have a box for the game. I don't know if there was ever a box for the it. I know that standard packaging for the Atari 2600 in Brazil was these cardboard boxes. He bought some games with boxes in great shape and wanted this one to look good alongside them.

I was just wondering why he didn't just find an original box. It actually looked authentic and everything.
