Remember while back, I dunno 20 years? Remember now we had censorship all over the place in games, nintendo censored mortal kombat, now things like that got to go as far as they want.
Now history has seemed to repeat itself, thanks to people who never lived outside of the college world.

cencorship is good for social justice, shitlord.

Nintendo never stopped editing their pwn games. They just lightened up on third parties.

The reason censorship is suddenly becoming a big deal now is because we're in an age where information on games in other regions is accessible in seconds and companies release documentation of game development and betas to the public. It's easier than ever to tell when things are altered and fan translations are bigger than ever, so companies like Nintendo still acting like it's the late 90's is frustrating for some consumers. Especially regarding anime games like Fire Emblem and Fatal Frame since there's already an inherent dislike for dubs/script changes in that community and the cultural differences regarding the treatment of shit like naked underaged girls cause drama with them.

It doesn't help that this is happening at the same time as social justice nonsense so the censorship blame has been moved from dumb soccer moms to militant feminists on a rival website.

This, it's just that the games you played didn't require censoring.

>>329361727
I remember when the ESRB was a system made to rate video games as they were and not a reference to cater to and see what needs to be removed to attain a preferable rating.

FUCKING CENSORSHIP.

>will it just be the same cycle?

it'll be similar. the "problems" used to be violence and language, it was very important to watch what you say. this is also when political correctness really took off. nowadays the issue is sexuality or most anything relating to women/homosexuals/transsexuals in media. language still plays a part but it's more centered around these groups. i do wonder what the next big "issue" will be though.

No Nintendo is still a company with a massive focus on children therefore can only have baby games. What do you expect? You can't buy pornography from fisher price so why would you expect children's games to be filled with pedo shit, lewdness or gore?

You know that actually supports what he was saying.

The majority of the examples are from the late 80's and early 90's, then there are relatively few examples from the late 90's, 2000's, and early 2010s outside normal European censorship.

localization didn't seem to affect games with previous loli shit, or showing cleavage. It's still censorship when the politics of where it's being released effect it's original state.
