The game controller protrudes from the partial encapsulation to enable a consumer to touch and test the ergonomics of the game controller.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the game controller includes a plurality of controls and the second portion of the packaging partially encapsulates at least a portion of said controls. In another embodiment, the second portion of the packaging completely encapsulates (encloses) the plurality of controls yet allows the game controller handles to remain accessible by a potential consumer.
- In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the packaging for product display, includes a first portion preventing access a product to be packaged, and a second portion providing limited consumer access to portions of a product. The limited access enabling consumer evaluation of the product via direct touch contact. The second portion is adapted to partially encapsulate and retain a game controller in place and enable a consumer to directly handle and test the ergonomics of the game controller as it would be held and used during actual game play.
- According to yet another embodiment of the invention, the method for forming packaging for retail product display includes the steps of: forming a first packaging half and a second packaging half, each package half being formed to include corresponding partial cavities; and, combining the first packaging half and the second packaging half to form a product packaging having a first packaging portion and a second packaging portion. The first packaging portion and the second packaging portion result from a combination of the corresponding partial cavities of the first packaging half and the second packaging half. The first packaging portion completely encapsulates a product to be packaged and the second packaging portion partially encapsulates a product.
- The step of forming forms at least one of the first packaging half and the second packaging half with a hanger portion adapted to form a hanger for hanging the product packaging on a display when the first packaging portion and the second packaging portion are combined in the combining step.
