    Can under 18's sell 18 rated games to shops?

    Im 14 and have a few 16/18 rated games that i want to sell.
    Can i go in and sell them (say they're my dads or something :P) or does a adult have to go in to sell them?

    Why do you even have to ask that? This is america, nobody really cares.

    Dont think there should be a problem.
    The problem arises in buying games, but even then, nobody cares.

    On the contrary, a lot of parents want stricter game regulation because of "violent video games".

    Don't butt in.

    I know people, and they don't bother to look at the ESRB rating. They're just video games, it doesn't matter if the whole game is a huge bloodbath, you can sell it.

    All I'm saying is that there have been people trying to get the supreme court to pass laws that would punish video game retailers, which includes fining video game retailers for selling M rated games to children under 17 and could've possibly included jailtime. Of course, these were not passed, but I'm just saying that there is a threat in the horizon.

    Not for me though

    ^ That's already passed in Finland. Oh, and we use PEGI so all of the games are rated higher than they should be. For example, Battlefield 3 was PEGI-18 when the trailers started popping out, but they changed it to PEGI-16.

    I doubt it's illegal. Why wouldn't you be allowed to sell those games?

    Oh, man, this reminds me of when I was trolling some kiddies on CoD4.
    Used to tell them to pick up the box and tell them:
    "You know what that number in the corner means? IT MEANS YOU GOTTA BE 18 TO PLAY AHUGHUAHGUAHUWHEU"

    So many butthurt kids.
