REGULATION OF VIDEO GAMES

The Entertainment Consumers Association™ (ECA™) supports the Constitutional right of free speech and advocates freedom of expression, regardless of whether it is in the form of a movie, a song, a video game or a book.

ECA™ opposes the restriction of video games based on content, and believes that bills attempting to curtail video game sales, rentals or use based on content are generally constitutionally invalid.

ECA™ applauds video game publishers for their self-regulation through the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) and supports the voluntary use of the ESRB rating system throughout the retail community.
