| CommonMan said: 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!  |
The ratings in America first started part way through the SNES era, but they are merely guidlines and the stores back then didn't have their own policy not to sell the games. The ratings back then contained the K-A rating which was replaced by E.
