There are some cut-scenes later in the game that qualify for that, but I don't know where the hell they're getting 'sexual situations' from. Sure, the gay shop keeper is a little too friendly, if you know what I mean, but it doesn't got any further than that.
Nocturne is a great game no matter what it's rated though. I only wished they lowered the encounter rate for the US version, then I'd buy it a second time.

I think the board took one look at those breasts with mouths and immediately qualified it for several different categories and an M rating.

I odn't think this doesn't matter that much really. Videogames aren't like movies where PG13 is vastly more lucrative than R. Most parent don't really pay attention to the ratings and any kid old enough to enjoy SMT is old enough to get to a store and shell out $50 to buy it himself.

perhaps it's an attempt to stave off letters from angry christian mothers fooled into buying the game for their children by the relatively unoffensive and pokemon-like low-level nakama? or perhaps, i am just very bored at work. someone post a more interesting megaten topic like "thor is big, isn't he?".

I don't think I've EVER bought a game that doesn't have "suggestive themes" listed on the back, regardless of what the game is. Usually all that means is that SOMEWHERE in there you can find some cleavage or something like that. Got a demon in a loincloth? That's suggestive enough.
I dunno...whatever...M is just fine for SMT3. Better to do it that way than worry about watering it down. Good deal with the soundtrack. Not a good deal for me, but still good.

Well, they only have it on American games, so...well, I guess I've gotten a few Japanese games that came to America and didn't have "suggestive themes", but I can't think of any. We'll have to see with Katamari Damacy. Hahaha...I think the rating committee would just ignorei t at first glance, even if it had harcore sexual references.

Great - this will probably make it even harder to find a copy of this game...
I keep trying to reserve a copy at EB Games but have had zero luck to date. Each time I ask the clerks about it they look at me like I'm inquiring about "Baby Raper/Eater 2004".
