It's Nitendo's decisions to release and not release content. No one outside party is forcing them to censor themselves. 

Honestly, though, I'm happy they're doing this. Having sexualized bikinis in a tactica, fantasy RPG is plain stupid. What works in Japan doesn't necessarily work in the West, and Nintendo knows that. 

why is it stupid? there always was stuff like these in jrpgs. People buy Japanese games excepting them to be Japanese, its not SJWs who buy these types of games

That's the thing, though, after Fire Emblem Awakening the series is more mainstream in the West. It's not necesseraily the niche JRPG a few hardcore gamers are going to buy expecting its Japanese querks anymore. Nintendo is just adjusting the game how they see fit to appeal more to westerners. 

I don't mind that there are bikini in the games, or that Nintendo is taking them out. I do know a lot of people, though, who are definitiely not SJWs guys who would find a game with all its Japanese quirks weird. 

This is not part of my main argument, but I had to laugh recently when I was playing Smash 4 with my buddies after I had downloaded Corrin, and them laughing because Corrin looked "really, really gay." Of course, after they discovered how much ass Corrin kicked  no one was laughing. They're just not used to the anime-style. Nintendo realizes that people in the West won't be used to the same bikni-clad Anime girls Japanese gamers are used to. So they take it out. Simple as that.
