Question

Can a 16 year old buy mature games at toys r us or any other store?

Answer 1

As long as your not the Chinese Olympics 16.

Answer 2

No you have to be at least 18  or 21

Answer 3

As an associate at TRU who works in video games, no, you can't without an ID, you need to be 17, not 18. You need a parent or anyone 17+ to come in with ID to buy the game for you. At TRU specifically we have to input the birthday from the ID to continue with a mature title sale. Sorry, same as R rated movies.

Try Walmart, they probably don't care as much.

**edit** People, it is 17 NOT 18 to buy a mature title! I sell the games daily, we have posters up all over the place. Look at a picture of any mature title, it says "M" and 17+, not 18+!

Answer 4

No especially not at any store that is a part of the ESRB's Commitment To Parents program. To buy M rated games you have to be atleast 18 years old and have proper ID to prove it.

Here is a list of everyone in North America who participates in the ESRB program:
