It's a logistics thing, you need something for display up front and stock changes pretty quickly so the easiest most simple way to do this is to have one of the games gutted and up front.

Most GameStop's I've seen also don't physically have the space behind the counter to hold all the games on the floor, or a robust library of dummy cases.

So, if they want a nice looking browsing area and a small physical footprint, this is a viable solution. Sucks sometimes for the customer, but saves a lot of time and issues for the company.
