| RolStoppable said: Final Fantasy III was the American name for Final Fantasy VI, because FF II, III and V were never released in the states, so Squaresoft decided to call it Final Fantasy III, because it was the third game in the series to release outside of Japan. They decided to keep that name for the release on the American European Virtual Console. |
That's... not what he meant.
The ESRB, or Entertainment Software Rating Board, is a self-regulatory body which categorizes games for the North American market according to their content. For instance, strong sexual content or graphic violence will usually result in a game being rated as M, for Mature. It's very similar to how movies are rated G, PG, R, etc.
