Speaking of the before times; it wasn't uncommon for websites looking for bad games to shit on to sometimes go find the weirdest Japanese games.

In fact I think before the Rapelay scandal broke, SomethingAwful did a review of it (while ironically ending with a Jack Thompson joke...if only he knew what was to come a few years later):

A few years later, some journalists found Amazon selling it and wrote a hit piece, it blows up in Japan, and as a result nearly every NSFW game studio protests this whole saga by IP blocking western IPs and reminding people that their games are "for sale in Japan only". Which admittedly didn't do much for anyone from the west wanting to seek those games out because of piracy, websites like J-List carrying them, and diehard autists using forwarders that don't ban NSFW stuff (FromJapan does, ZenMarket/Buyee/a few more don't), but would stop low-information journalists from finding them.
