Is Nintendo America & Treehouse going to butcher Jap games on Switch again?

is Nintendo America & Treehouse going to butcher Jap games on Switch again?

Yeah just like they've been doing for decades without noticing.

>Switch doesn't have region lock

Zero fucks given if they do.

Do Treehouse only do the US localizations? Is EU handled by someone else?

It used to be different groups, but lately it's been treehouse.

Yea.

Your opinion means nothing, all they care about is chasing the casual bucks.

NoE were downsized in 2013 or whenever it was.
And NoA had more funds directed at it.

I honestly think that the ESRB and PEGI have something to do with it. This ONE trophy was apparently enough to push the age rating of Smash 3DS up from E10+ to T, which is why it was removed. I've seen all kinds of questionable content get past ratings boards (like Senran Kagura getting a T) while "cartoon violence" is enough to push a Nintendo game up from an E to E10+.

Is it just because Nintendo games are more likely to get into the hands of a general audience like kids and parents so the chance of them getting offended by a piece of content is higher than a more obscure game like Senran Kagura?

Pretty much, even jap games are butchered due to their new ratings laws.

With Smash specifically, I think the Tharja trophy was removed in Japanese versions so as to keep content the same across all regions.

CERO is questionable though. Just look at Fire Emblem
>Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light - A (for all ages)
>Gaiden - A
>Mystery of the Emblem - A
>Genealogy of the Holy War - A
>Thracia 776 - B (not intended for those under 12)
>The Binding Blade - A
>The Blazing Blade - A
>The Sacred Stones - A
>Path of Radiance - A
>Radiant Dawn - A
>New Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light - A
>New Mystery of the Emblem ~Heroes of Light and Shadow~ - A
>Awakening - B
>Fates - C (not intended for those under 15)
>Echoes - B

Should Fates really be given a C? Are Awakening and a remake of Gaiden really at the same age level as Thracia 776? And these aren't ratings from 20 years ago either. When put on the Virtual Console, the games got rerated (CERO didn't exist until after The Binding Blade, so the first six games received age ratings retroactively).

Kinda crazy how we only know about that trophy because of the ESRB leak

Although it might have leftover text in the game still

Realistically no one in the US pays attention to ratings.

Nintendo just wants to maintain it's "we're super clean good family fun!! xDDD!!" image it has with soccer moms. Even if it's a game a soccer mom's kids wouldn't want anyway.

Yes but you can import the real versions this time.

Yes. Why would they ever stop?
>Zero fucks given if they do.
You dumb weebs don't know Japanese, though. Region-lock is a non-issue, if you could read Japanese you would have imported a JP console and if you didn't you were reliant on hacks and fan translations anyway. The Switch not having region lock doesn't do a single fucking thing for people who would be affected by NoA censorship.

Only people that need their mom's permission to go online care.

Sounds like someone's just getting angry for the sake of being mad, to perpetuate their "Anti-Censorship" Crusade.

No I'm just baffled at how Nintendrones are pretending Nintendo finally catching up with the times 11 years late and not region locking their console will benefit them in any way when they can't read Japanese in the first place

>Buying first party Nintendo games for the fapping material

You can do better

By the time I wait to see what games come out on the Switch and see if they get censored or not, I'll be waiting for whatever console Nintendo is making next instead.

Reminds me of how CERO wouldn't allow Hitler to be in Persona 2 PSPso they had to change him to Fuhrer and give him Sunglasses when they rereleased the game.

This curtain edit is unnecessary because Treehouse unironically took those swimsuits out of the game anyway.

that's actually pretty funny

>still having hopes for NoA in 2017
