Nintendo Announces Play Control System For Next Hardware - 11.16.2005 | 19:41 - James Collins


Nintendo have announced it will include a play control system in its next home video game system, code-named 'Revolution', coming in 2006. By using a password-controlled setting, adults will be able to decide what flexibility they'll allow younger players to have in playing games rated 3+, 7+, 12+, 16+ or 18+. The system also ensures dedicated adult gamers can opt to play without limitations. The system will work in the same way as some DVD players restrict viewing of certain DVD films.

Nintendo's games in Europe are rated using the Pan European Games Information (PEGI) age rating system for interactive games, which groups games into five different age bands, 3+, 7+, 12+, 16+ or 18+.
