I dont get to inspect after transit because its in consumer hands by then. But if theres a problem ill definitely end up hearing about the claim. And even when moving by forklift or such, theres multiple steps where it can go wrong.
To give you a better idea i deal with furniture, so big bulky items. Packaging has to be impt for that because theyre heavy and expensive. It costs more to replace it than it does to bulk up the packaging. Otoh bulking up packaging also means it takes up more cubic space in a ctr meaning less loadability so you cant go overboard either. Plus packaging costs money, so thats another reason not to go overboard
With that being said. If my packaging had as little problems as nintendos did , I would consider that a win. And i consider the whole thing solely gamestops fault

Well, also consider that the new Nintendo console just released, so we don't have a large sample size for their packaging being cheap leading to damage. Time will tell. However, if we take into account all other electronics that use cheap packaging (i.e. putting screens right next to the outside surface of the cardboard without any separators or padding), then there's obvious proof that kind of packaging isn't sufficient to protect the contents, as lots of those electronics get damaged in transit.

Thanks for the clarification.
