This morning I woke up with the unpleasant surprise of some journalist of the official Nintendo magazine trashing Senran Kagura, the release of which has just been set on feb. 28nd here in Europe.

Seriously, the day Rune Factory 4 gets canned, when 3rd parties are withdrawing from 3DS, can we let opinion leaders refuse games? When ecchi games finally have proper audience in the West, does this talk for more censorship have any sense? Can people realize that it's a damn GAME and that gamers aren't only 10 year-old kiddies?

There is FAR worse in terms of sexual content in many mangas you can pick up in every freakin' bookshop, and the bloody rating boards say that the game is OK for teenagers. Can we take a break one day?

But the most unbeareable in all this is that Vita players, who made Marvelous rich, get the short end of the stick for the future episodes. I hope Takaki realize soon enough that the 3DS is longer a good option for Senran Kagura.

My word, this annoying brand of anti-male, anti-sex, anti-fun feminism has become so trendy. And worst of all are the male clingers-on, like the author of this particular piece of stupidity.

(LOL at your last paragraph. Don't ever change.)

Sounds like this guy never watched Strike Witches. But seriously this type of thing will always exist, and if the author is so offended then he should just not play the game. Overreacting and calling it the worst thing ever is childish. There are plenty of other games and seeing women have a more encouraging and positive role in video games is always a sign of progress but acting like a white knight solves absolutely nothing.

Nintendo wants to keep the 3ds kid friendly.

haha that ONM article was good for a laugh. Cant wait to pick this up, provided it gets released in Australia

That's why Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, Shin Megami Tensei, Conception, Ace Attorney, Castlevania, and Zero Escape are not available on the 3DS in any way, shape or form!

I didn't read the article, what do you expect me to do? Read?

But if it really makes you unhappy then do like me! Don't read this piece of shit and support the game by buying it!

I already bought all 3 Senran Kagura games

"Look at the role of women in gaming, for example. They're almost always portrayed as busty, slim, attractive people - an almost impossible feat in real life."

Wait, is this guy feminist or sexist?

"I can't recall any game that I've played where a man's crotch was the sole focus of the camera at all, let alone for a noticeable period of time."

He should play some games from Suda.

"gaming is still very much a male-dominated industry - and suffers as a result, due to an inherent lack of balance."

Male dominated doesn't mean it lacks balance. Does the make-up and hairdressing profession lack balance? If women were motivated enough to produce games with their girlfriends in garages, they would have.

"So, do yourself, and the wider community a favour: don't read articles about its release. Try not to Youtube it. Avoid reviews."

Lock your doors, lower the curtains, avoid your friends, don't read the news, don't watch television, don't play games, wear earmuffs and sunglasses, AND FOR FUCK'S SAKE AVOID PUBERTY! Oh, and make sure to subscribe to my blog.

That's not enough, you need to buy at least 3 copies of each game for it to count!
