Otherwise, just what's going on?
The lack of a release of Ninja Gaiden 3 : Razor’s Edge on the Wii U in Australia has been a bit of joke amongst the local Nintendo community. The game has taken so long to get released in Australia that we had kind of given up hope on ever seeing the game.
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge was the first game in Australia to be rated R18+ but since then at least 10 other games have been classified R18+ and about half of them have actually been released.
Not only that, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 was announced and released in the time between the Wii U launch and now. There has also been a Ninja Gaiden game released on the PS Vita which was also R18+.
We seriously had no idea why Nintendo Australia weren’t releasing the game, many theories (some of them pretty crazy) were thrown around but only one really made any sort of sense.
The Australian Wii U didn’t support R18+ rated in its parental controls, up until today that is. For such a violent game not to be able to be parental locked could have been a disaster for Nintendo, could have.
However with the 3.0 update of the Wii U today, R18+ games can now be controlled under the Wii U parental controls. This should pave the way for the game to now be released in Australia.
Right?
