Why don’t video game consoles have seizure warnings anymore?
<p>On the Wii, every time you’d start it up there would be a big screen with white text on black saying that it can cause seizures in a small group of people. I’ve heard that the PlayStation 3 also has this.</p>

<p>However, the 3DS, Wii U, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch never require you to see this—it is in a manual or hidden somewhere in some software built-in but not ever opened by normal users.</p>

<p>Why did this change? <strong>Was there some legal decision or law that changed that caused this disclaimer to not be legally necessary?</strong></p>

<h2>No law change AFAIK - a technology change</h2>
<p>LED TVs don’t flicker at frequencies that can cause seizures like cathode ray tubes could.</p>
