Personally I'd guess the packaging was tampered with.
Also, the original SNES games were not in a sealed plastic wrapper. The box itself is sealed in wrapping but not the cartridge. I think, but am not completely sure, that the cartridges were in plastic that was not at all sealed, just like a loose sleeve.
