In the case of Super Smash Bros. Brawl the raters determined that the T (Teen 13+) rating with content descriptors for Cartoon Violence, Crude Humor was most appropriate. According to the publisher's submission for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, The core of the game is about fighting, and there is constant cartoony violence. Players can punch, kick, headbutt, fire lasers, grab and throw, body slam, bludgeon with bats and magic wands, set bombs, swing swords, bite, crash into, burn, freeze, shock, and generally pummel every character in the game. A character has an attack where he passes gas. He builds up gas over the course of a match and releases it in a damage-dealing cloud, accompanied by a noise. This attack is referenced in a conversation between two other characters. The same character also picks his nose in a cut scene. This type of content is likely to have contributed to the rating and content descriptors ultimately assigned by the raters.


This is a e-mail that came two months late from ESRB. i dont find farts and nose picks funny...
