Well I'll STILL have access to the game even though I'm 15(Mom doesn't care whats in game as long as I don't do it). Unlike some weak minded people, I'm not affected by violence and other stuff.

Hah, don't get me started on that subject... I absolutely agree with you. I find it really odd that people consider depictions of nudity to be somehow worse than depictions of extreme violence. As the kangaroo says in that Flash movie, double-yew tee eff mate? ^_^

Adult Only=18 or older (which I don't understand, as M is 17 or older. Not much of an age/maturity gap there)

True, but they have already merged (Actualy, from what I heard, GameStop bought EB). They are the same company now, they just have left them as seperate entity's owned by the same mother company.

Also, most pornagraphy is legal to buy at 17 in most states. Most of it is just rated "R", which is 17 and up. Now some stores do have policys to not sell pornographic or other rated "R" material to anyone under 18

It is not like it is going to make a difference if they change the ratings from Mature to Adult Only. I have not known, nor met one parent who checks the ratings on the back of video games. Even so, it is not like they are going to restrict their children of playing it. Sure, some may, but most do not care. I know kids that are of the ages twelve and under and play Adult Only games. They ask their parents to buy it for them and sure enough they do.

I think the cause of this is because older people nowadays did not grow up with violent video games such as Grand Theft Auto. They may see the rating on the back but they probably have no clue there is actual nudity in the game. Others may think that it does not effect their children. And last but not least, another reason could be is the fact that it is only a video game. If their kid wants it, buy him it. I guess the only reason they are changing the ratings is incase a parent sues the gaming company because of false ratings. Who would want to take that risk? I know I sure would not. The point I am trying to get at is, changing the ratings will not matter and the same kids will be buying the same games.

Personally I'd make Pokemon an AO for depicting nudity of children and adult Pokemon.

Ahhhh, see? Not only does Pokemon have nudity but it's obviously trying to appeal to the fetish community.

They are worried about nudity, but this is not the problem?

Why do we never stay on topic? In the 'Deffered Success' Topic it started with failing grades and ended up on Atom Bombs. And now this started out with the Sims and ended up with Pokemon Fetishes...
