Due to certain child pornography laws, Nintendo's Scandinavian subsidiary decided not to release the game in the territory. Apparently some dude on a Swedish forum thought of reporting the game because some of the girls were under 18, just to make a point of how ridiculous he thought the law was. Nintendo panicked when they heard about this and cancelled the release days before the game was supposed to hit shops. Full story on Eurogamer.

But sweden is all about fine tits !

It's only child porn in sweden if they are younger than 15. 16 and 17 is A ok.

DOA girls = jailbait

It'd be nice if we could get that fucking fascist we have now out of the minister of justice seat.

Someone posted this 2 days ago.

This is why everybody in Soul Calibur V is at least 40. 

@Axxol: I thought if someone was going to write about this, they'd do it in the game's forum, and not in General Discussion.

Sweden doesn't like virtual boobs.

There's already a thread about this here

As long as the girls aren't naked. So they happen to be really developed.... They are not porn games.

@Icemael: Wait, so Swedish law says that you can legally have sex with someone three years younger than the age it's legal to view pornographic images of that person? What.

No they banned it because its a shitty game.

I read Sweden in the title, and now all I can think about is the Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show...

It does seem like the older thread that's been brought up is a more comprehensive discussion on this ban, so let's move the conversation into there for consolidation's sake. Thanks!
