angry tapir writes "Australia's Classification Board today announced the first video game to receive the new R18+ classification which came into effect at the start of 2013, indicating the title is to be sold only to adults. Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge, developed by Team Ninja, is published by Nintendo for the company's new Wii U console. The R18+ classification was created after a long campaign by gamers and game publishers. Previously games had a maximum rating of MA, and titles that didn't meet the criteria had to be reworked or not released in Australia." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Game+Receives+First+R18%2B+%22Adults+O nly%22+Classification+In+Australia%3A+http%3A%2F%2 Fbit.ly%2FZOLDjM) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F13%2F01%2F11%2F0236259%2Fgame-receives-first-r18-adults-only-classification-in-australia%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Df acebook) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/13/01/11/0236259/game-receives-first-r18-adults-only-classification-in-australia?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
