It does look as if your heads are out of alinement if it is not loading on your real machine. Try adjusting the heads up or down a little and see what you get.
To be honest, unless the tape has been in the rain or close to a speaker (magnet) they age very well from my point of view. I have well over 200 C16/Plus4 original cassette games. You can see from my mtap images just how good they have aged.
As for your wav sample of the tape. You will get a ?BREAK ERROR if you are close to the correct volume level. Your volume setting is to low or too high when recording the tape. It is very, very hard to make samples of the cassettes, but you may not be far off...
I spent many hours trying to make samples of some cassettes and only a couple I did make
