| BraLoD said: @G2ThaUNiT (and everyone else that cares), here are some comparisons from my collection as promised. Image heavy post ahead. We we have 7 different age tiers for rating, one will be missing in these photos as I don't have a single game for that rating, as it was added just October 2025, and the only game I've personally seen with that rating so far is the new Switch 2 Yoshi, which I don't have. The tiers are L, 6, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18. They are based on the minimum age that is supposed to be able to have access to it, just like for PEGI. The one missing will be the tier for 6+ years old, as it is the new tier, it's color is pink, btw. L stands for what the E stands in the ESRB rating tiers, it comes from word "Livre", that stars the phrase "Livre para todos os públicos", which means its allowed for everyone, just like in the ESRB as mentioned above. |
In Germany the tiers are 0 (white), 6 (yellow), 12 (green), 16 (blue) and 18 (red):
Both tiers (and their color code) are the same for video games and for movies... but most movie covers (DVD, Blu-ray and UltraHD) have a flip cover. So you flip the cover and on its back is the same cover without the age restriction logo (and often also without the barcode). Some movies even have the German cover front and an international cover on the back.
I wish flip covers were the standard for video games,too.
