If you're in a store that doesn't mainly focus on Video Games, the answer is usually yes. If you're in a store like GameStop, for example, sometimes they stop you from buying the game, and sometimes they just warn you that the game is rated M and about the content of rated M games.

Can minors buy M rated video games?

There's no such thing as a "rated R" game in the US. The closest ESRB ratings equivalent to an MPAA "R" rating for a movie would probably be M. It's not actually a crime for a retailer to sell or rent an M-rated game to someone under 17, or an AO-rated game to someone under 18. Most retailers do have a policy of voluntarily abiding by the ESRB ratings, though, and it can be difficult to find a place that's willing to incur the potential wrath of parents by selling M or AO games to children. In summary, the short answer is: you don't. Ask your parents to buy it for you. The game shop will happily sell such a game to your dad, and what he then does with it is up to him.

Why can't kids under age buy M rated games without an adult?

Because it's the law, most under aged child are prone to the mature content of the game before they were ready to learn about it. Therefore an adult must be present and buy the game for them. It is however illegal and often overlooked as the child will be affected by the content of game play thus expose to the hazardous content that is only known in the adult's world. An example would be in 1940, 95% of 18 years old boys have trouble and difficulties firing or killing an enemy. In 2010, about 90% 18 years old know the basic of gun handling and had no trouble killing anyone. This is one of the example of contacting the adult content too early. Thus every under aged children can't buy M rated games unless their overlooked parent buy for them.


Are children allowed to buy adult books?

Depends on the nature of the adult books. Are they adult adult (as in XXX rated) or just books for people with the reading level of a fully grown adult? If they are XXX rated books, then the answer is no, they cannot. If they are the other, then it is possible but not very common.
