Is Smash 4 more sexual than other Nintendo games?

[Enderwoman]

Wait they removed Peach's Underwear?

In the 3ds version, yeah.

 

[Khao]

It's not the developers fault that this society still lives in the 1800s and see everything a woman does, including simply using less clothing than usual as something "sexual" and then proceed to complain about it.

I honestly don't see anything in this game that's not completely innocent.

 

[Yarlick]

The times has changed and so do the people behaviors towards "sex" and everything else. Like you said, we are not in 1800 anymore...

 

[Xinc]

There's bound to be more sexual themes in games now especially with the culture, but I don't believe the game is any more sexual than you make it out to be.

 

[Marakatu]

So, Peach have no underwear? That sounds very sexual, if you ask me.

 

[Skyfox2000]

So what happens when you look up her dress now?

 

[Themandme]

So what happens when you look up her dress now?

The void

 

[Skyfox2000]

The void

Really?? That's Weird.

 

[Yarlick]

....Come on, Amy Rose on Sonic the Fighter had no panties....so sexual! It was nothing but a bunch of pixels x)

Oh, and for those who are convinced Sakurai doesn't at least have somewhat of a dirty mind or likes to intentionally exploit the physical appeal of characters....he gave this the A-OK for the Kirby anime:

Context: The plot for this episode involves King Dedede hiring animators to make a show about him, and upon setting out to Cappy Town to brainstorm, the animators see Tiff, a female cappy child, and one of the main characters of the Kirby anime. They become really fixated on her and think she is the cutest thing alive. They start stalking her, and taking pictures of her and recording her voice from a distance. When Tiff is all alone and catches on to the fact someone is following her, she starts running and screaming, people hear her and spot the animators, and apprehend them.

The animators clear up that they are here to make a show for Dedede, and when Dedede catches wind of them not focusing on making something about him, he locks them in a dungeon and forces them to work non-stop. Kirby, Tiff, and the others see this, and despite what the animators did earlier, think it's wrong for them to basically be working like slaves. They set off to free them, but Dedede has hired another animator to get the job done faster than them anyway. This animator is actually a monster from Nightmare Enterprises, however. Kirby fights the monster, and the animation it made is destroyed.

Then the three animators say they have finally finished their project. With newfound respect for the three animators, Kirby, Tiff, and the others get it all set up so everyone can watch it.

Cue the scene above.

Sakurai thought it was perfectly fine for one of the child characters of his kid friendly show based on his kid friendly franchise to be fetishised into a busty, squeaky waifu for one scene, complete with innuendo of certain bodily fluids (the white ice cream represents something else in this context, it's done a lot in softcore smut...), and having obsessive stalkers of this child be a plot point of the episode.

Sakurai didn't make any part of the show directly as far as I know. But he was a supervisor on the show, and it was him that put together Warpstar Inc, the studio that makes the show. So he definitely had to give the A-OK to these episodes, and he did here. This scene was actually heavily edited in the aired English dub to minimise the sexual connotations.

If you aren't convinced Sakurai has a bit of a dirty mind after this and that at least some of his PotD's and content in the game is done purely for sex appeal, I don't know what to tell ya.

 

[PurpleSpaceDragon]

Melee and Brawl were worse for the voyeuristic pause camera which has been addressed in this one. I figured it would be ever since that Brawl-era post,

They got rid of the free-roaming camera for taking screenshots?

Is it limited now or something?

 

[RyokoYaksa]

[Shagadelic_Baby]

Same for Rosalina and Zelda, I believe.

 

[Smallgenie549]

Well, I'm definitely glad they added Shulk's swimsuit alt. I'm glad to finally have some eye candy in the game.

 

[Skyfox2000]

Same for Rosalina and Zelda, I believe.

Uhh. Remember you can see the Cosmos beneath her gown?

 

[Smallgenie549]

That black void between Peach's legs is even more suggestive than before, like when NOA censored the Fire Emblem: Awakening DLC. >_<

 

[SmasherP83]

I'll forever miss Peach upskirt....R.I.P. Peach Underwear.

............It could've just stayed...

 

[Ffamran]

All I see is a void of doom and gloom.

 

[Themandme]

That was really stupid

 

[Yarlick]

What the....it could have been done better....

 

[Ffamran]

What the....it could have been done better....

In what way? I must know... For science... Yes, science...

 

[Tony Montana]

Palutena's taunt...

Yes it is more sexual.

 

[Ffamran]

Palutena's taunt...

Yes it is more sexual.

Pole-dancing is a tough art form, but Palutena's taunt does look a bit saucy and playful. Then again, since her reveal, I think Palutena's been more fanservice-y to Peach's flirty to Rosalina's cute mama to Zelda's cold beauty to Samus's curvy body to Sheik's attractive, androgynous appearance to Wii Fit Trainer's toned self to... Er... where was I going with this again?

 

[Brickbuild101]

They blocked off the panty shots so at least we won't have to deal with that anymore.

But yeah I didn't really mind at first but the stripper pole Palutena thing was a bit much, lol.

They didn't on the trophies. ;3

 

[Ffamran]

They didn't on the trophies. ;3

How did you find this out?

 

[Brickbuild101]

How did you find this out?

In a stream, a guy started trying to look up all the female trophies' skirts. It was creepy, especially with the pre-teen Serena and Baby Peach.

Really? Baby Peach?! What the hell? As for Serena. Which Serena are we talking about? 'Cause if it's Serena from Pokémon X/Y, then she's 18 or close to it.

Ugh... I remember watching the early streams and they did it during gameplay and took pictures during the damn stream! People are watching you idiots! Even if you're anonymous online, people elsewhere might think all gamers or all Smashers are perverts!

 

[R0Y]

Maybe it's safe on Wii U, lol.

 

[Ffamran]

Yeah, like looking up someone's skirt is a safe idea when that person has a supposed boyfriend who can stomp you into the ground, shoot fireballs out of his hands, and is friends with an omnivorous dinosaur. Oh, and her stalker-affair that's a fire-breathing turtle-dragon who can box and maul you to death. Don't forget the criminal charges you'll get and that you'll be on the "list" forever.

 

[Xtremee]

Wait they removed Peach's Underwear?

o.O
second this question

what?

 

[TimeSmash]

If you're going to a club where the strippers dance like how Palutena does on her staff, you're going to a really lame stripclub.

That three second dance will be two hundred dollars, please

 

[Dcas]

Please, dont bring your equality and moral to these forums.

Its enough everything, absolutely every aspect of our society is infected with this disease of morality. Let the gaming be at least the only place where everything can happen without boundaries nor critics.

Mods if it is possible, close this thread that would only ignite flames.

 

[TimeSmash]

After looking at this for a second, this seems raunchier than just leaving the undies in because it really just looks like something not great.

A carpet and drapes reference, here. Sorry but it's just what I see

Here's the link to it. You'll be in for a surprise. Hint: It's not a rick-roll.

Or a monstrous void that emasculates men.

 

[CoolEric258]

You're saying this like it's a bad thing (*nudgenudgewinkwink*)

 

[Pyra]

To be honest I feel like that won't be the case in the more HD version of the game.

I think every character needs a pole dance taunt. Specifically the pole that seems to be in everyone's butts about the game's extremely mild sexual tones.

Sure, they're there, but it has less sex appeal than a stroll down the beach.

You greatly overestimate the attractiveness of people at the beqch.
