Nintendo wont allow you to download Wii U 18+ rated games before 11 PM

This topic is still alive? Well it sucks to live in Europe, if Germany suffers then the rest of the EU suffers as well. Besides, why would anyone want to download full retail games on the Wii U? Assassin's Creed 3 takes 17GB and the Wii U basic only carries 8GB while the pro carries 32GB.

What happens if you have slow internet and cant download whole game in that tiny 4-6hrs window, do you get disconnected and have to wait for next night?

Oh can you resume downloads or do you have to restart from scratch?:|

Isn't this just Nintendo of Europe?

I'd hope this doesn't happen in North America as well.

This is the stupidest thing I've heard in a while. Why the hell does this only apply in Europe as well? It's like they're trying to piss us off on purpose.

Legal age restriction requirements vary across a number of European countries. Since Nintendo of Europe is based in Germany, Nintendo eShop is complying with German youth protection regulation which therefore applies to all our European markets. Under German law, content rated 18+ must be made available only at night."

Oh ok. They probably should (or could) find a work around for this as subjecting a whole continent to the rules of one country is insane. Also, I don't think you can enforce something like this over all of Europe anyways. I don't live in Germany, therefore none of their laws are enforceable on me. Besides, Nintendo shouldn't have set up their servers in Germany if that's the case.

So yeah, to say NES, SNES, N64 were the only games with mature oriented games is a freaking lie. There are others I am missing, but may think these games are bad, and some of these may be unpopular (hey you mentioned N64 having mature games, but bear in mind, PlayStation One STILL won that audience with Resident Evil, Fear Effect, Silent Hill) however that's not the point of this. It proves that they do exist for GameCube and Wii.

Also bearing in mind that the SNES was infamous for censorship until the SNES port of Mortal Kombat II released.

What? You viewed NES-SNES as kids toys when in fact the in those days video games as whole was viewed as for kids. GC-Wii may had mature games, but those systems was known more for it family friendly games. PSP107

Oh and by the way, SNES was infamous for censorship at the time. What does that tell you?

Based on the lenght of this thread, a lot of SW kids don't get to be up that late :lol:
