you wouldn't be able to steal the numbers from a new game anyway.
at all the gamestores i've ever been too, they put the games in these thick, plastic covers with a lock (and the key is at the register, usually), so even if you did steal the game, it would be a pain to get it out.
also, all new video games are plastic wrapped, so in order to make it look like no one opened it, you would have to bring a hair dryer and a new wrap to wrap it in after you've stolen the sticker with the serial # and access key.
even more, most stores have cameras/large curved mirrors so that the people at the register can see the whole store.
so IF you managed to break the plastic case, and IF you got the sticker, and IF you somehow managed to get a hair dryer running without being heard, you would still have to not be seen.
take it up with Sega. from what i've heard, they're starting to become less lazy now, even claiming they're going to crack down on hackers.

Too legit to quit.
