Ultra rare floppy disk game twisted and slashed into shards by US Customs or DHL checkers — ruined Tsukihime 1999 demo was one of only 50 ever produced

Tsukhime Trial Edition destroyed in shipping.

A games collector shared a most distressing unboxing video this week. Keripo had ordered an important historical video gaming artifact, one of only 50 known copies of Tsukhime Trial Edition (月姫 体験版). However, as the images and video (embedded below) show, it looks like the US Customs and/or DHL have been rather heavy-handed when checking the parcel contents. You can clearly see that the original Windows 95/98 demo floppy disk has been deliberately sliced into pieces, after its protective shell was twisted and torn almost beyond recognition.

As Keripo opens the parcel in the video below, they naturally utter a few expletives, so this is an NSFW video in that respect. Turn the sound down/off if you prefer.
