I think it needs a bit more time. People are quite happy to play RTS games as Romans even though they murdered and conquered a fairly large chunk of the world, but that was a very long time ago. The Nazis are still pretty fresh in people's memories. I don't know what it's like in the US but here in the UK everyone knows a veteran or had parents, grandparents or great grandparents who fought against them.
I'm not really up on war games. What's the most recent battle/war portrayed in a game where you can fight on the "evil side"?
Personally I'm all for freedom of choice and if someone wants to create a Nazi game then as far as I'm concerned that's their choice. But that probably wouldn't be the view of the media and the majority of the public.
