That is true, which is more strange as to why the Japanese version has same sex marriage in the first place, or strongly hinting at least. Though the other 14 states would be upset and loud enough for Ninten to censor it, since they like to try to please everyone....

Trying to please everyone is probably the reason it's in the game. People were vocally displeased with its absence from Awakening and Tomodachi Life. Reporters said they were out of touch with Western markets. So, primarily to please Western markets they add a same-sex marriage option to Fates. Certainly some Japanese gamers will be happy about it, but they aren't the ones who kicked up a storm over the issue.

It being limited to only two partners could suggest several things, most likely that it was added late in development.

they shouldnt try, you cant please extremists. first its same-sex mariage, than its interracial marriage and in the end they cry because something looks socialist.

Reminds me of a pic I nabbed from Miiverse.
