When did the rating system start? I was 17 in 1994 so I'm not sure it was even an issue for me. My folks did not buy me games when I was a kid, I had to find the money myself, and there weren't a ton of mature games (blood and guts wise) on the SNES anyways. My parents always hated the fact that I played video games, you should see my dad's reaction now that I'm 32 and still gaming!
