The West not to get Ikki Tousen
Also known as Battle Vixens in the west, Ikki Tousen has been around for a while in Japan (on the PS2) and is a fighting game with copious boobs. And what could make this game better I hear you ask? Damage is shown by the characters clothes being shredded revealing even more boob and leg. That’s a pretty good selling point right there! Sadly though the ESRB had the following to say on the matter:
“All the female characters are dressed in short skirts or skirts with a high slit. The game features frequent depictions of panties, cleavage, and exaggerated breast jiggle. A special attack move allows some characters to rip opponents’ clothes to shreds – exposing even more of the female anatomy (legs, breasts, partial buttocks).”
Sadly that’s enough to get the game an M rating and put the last nail in the coffin for Ikki Tousen. Colin Goron, Co-founder of Valcon Games had this to say:
“We could remove all the stuff that makes it an M-rated game, but then we don’t think the customers would be very happy buying an Ikki Tousen game without all the shredded clothing.”
How right you are Colin, how right you are…
