According to that logic, it would be okay to have nudity in games just because it is harmless or that it's not real. Games and media have a very real effect on this minds of people.
@rylo151 The problem here isn't with the graphical maturity of the game. The issue at hand is that women are being sexually objectified in this game. Honestly, I think that it's immature and disgusting. For example, look at the image of the stand above. If you don't think that is not a disgusting portrayal of women, I don't know what to say.
These games are most definitively sexist and they objectify women. There is a difference between burly men and anime characters in this game. Games like this and how the media portrays women lead to psychological diseases like anorexia. Nintendo should have gone out of their way and cut out the immature and disgusting portrayal of women.
Man, you guys are all really pessemistic. Give the Wii U some time and some more games and it will be selling like hotcakes. Remember, the Wii U is basically the same price as the wii. Most One and PS4 owners will jump to PC gaming soon.
What PS4 and maybe Xbox One are doing is alienating the casual market. Nintendo has a perfect strategy to stage a comeback this holiday. And no, Nintendo Wii U does not need a price cut. The Wii U itself sells at a loss and Nintendo only profits when at least one game is purchased with it.
Nintendo should start an advertising campaign around the number 5. For example, 5 people can play at once, 4 classic nintendo series, 3 Nintendo VC consoles(N64, GCN, Wii) for download from the eshop, 2 Hardware Bundles, 1 Gamepad, 0 boredom.

@unrandomsam
I know. I was giving an example of what the portrayal of women by the media has caused.

Re: Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Will Lay Claim To This Much Space On Your 3DS Console's SD Card
For those of you who are complaining, Majora' Mask was only 26.34 MB and OOT was only 25.35 MB.

Re: First Impressions: Sonic Lost World (3DS)
Life lesson #84: If you have a choice between the same game for a console and a handheld, it's probably in your best interest to buy it for a console.
