But why that Sega CD game in particular?
Because it’s the most controversial. Not because it’s good or just for mature or such, but because it’s being quoted by Nintendo on US congress where as a direct result of those events, The ESRB was established. The game is part of the history, thanks to Nintendo.
Howard Lincoln : “Night Trap will never appear on a Nintendo system.”
