Excitable Boy

is a metaphor
The only other major changes over the Japanese version I've heard of were BLADE being changed (Beyond the Logos Artificial Destiny Emancipator is now Builders of the Legacy After the Destruction of Earth), all DLC being included on-disc, and various minor statistical adjustments.

I don't really like the first one, but the second one more than makes up for it, IMO.

All DLC? Cool.

They also removed the bust slider in character creation. That inability to make large breasted female characters really ruins the game for me.

I can't be a flat loli. I don't need Nintendo telling what I can and can't do.

And people wonder why "gamers" have such a difficult time being taken seriously.

But I digress. It's your money.

Weird reasoning. But to each their own.

I've held off buying a Wii U for now. I did think about it during Black Friday. But if NX gets released, let's say 2017 and has backwards compatibility, I'll gladly wait for that entirely.
So I'm holding it off till the summer to decide.

I should have added a sarcasm tag. I found that change to be amusing and wonder why it was changed. I should get my copy sometime tomorrow.
 
Well, it is sort of annoying when games purposefully limit character creation. If it's a feature the game has, you should be able to make your character look as ridiculous or scandalous as you want. A big bust or showing some skin doesn't make it pornography, if it's rated T or above you should definitely have the freedom to make your character a bit sexy if you want to.

Eh, ragazzo!
welp, they also censored the fundoshi and turned them into white boxers

Some people in this thread really need to sort out their priorities.
Yeah. I mean censorship can be annoying, but for the most part, it really doesn't matter that much. At the end of the day, it happens, but it doesn't detract from the game significantly.

Besides, other than the above, I actually did like the addition of Nintendo costumes in Fatal Frame.

Honestly, this feels like you're attempting to dismiss a more or less valid complaint by painting the arguers as obsessive or pedantic.
But in the end, why would you care if something like that was censored?

No one would complain about the crows in the Mother series not having cigarettes, or for that matter, a group of cultists making a less obvious reference to the KKK, or even, Ness in pajamas instead of being naked.
Of course, with the latter, no one cares, because many people in the West would find that part awkward anyway.

My point is, the content of censorship would be the only thing that would matter if it was something to complain about.

Taking out design choices in a game that gives you design choices when other countries have them is stupid. All censorship is bad. The people they are pandering too would have never bought the game anyway.

Maybe I wanted to run around as a sumo wrestler

but now I can't.

Because nintendo
 
It's really not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, I'm not in an unstoppable rage because I can't see a videogame character wearing fundoshi, but the censorship reeks of babying considering the game in question already deals with serious adult elements anyways. In my opinion at least, Western audiences have grown up a bit since the 90's. Nintendo shouldn't be as worried about offending our puritan sensibilities.

Blatant fanservice can be a bad sell though, especially to western audiences. Street Fighter 5 basically said they censored stuff to sell copies so people don't have to worry about feeling weird while playing a game.

Iirc, the slap that new girl does is something female wrestlers do all the time. I don't play SF so idk but if that's true, then it seems like a dumb change imo. T

I mean, the fact that people are playing SF with $100+ arcade pads is weird enough
