I'll admit that /personally/ I don't care about any of the things that currently got censored because I wouldn't have used them anyway, but I still think it's getting a bit heavy-handed. Getting rid of the bust slider in Xenoblade just seemed silly. It's not as if the game is free of cleavage all together, a lot of the characters/costumes are sexualized to begin with. Removing the "petting" thing in Fire Emblem was also strange. Again I doubt I would have even used it (it was dumb in Pokemon), but I don't see any reason to completely remove the feature for those that care about that.
I don't have any qualms with them changing the ages of characters though. I'm not sure why there are so many hyper-sexualized teenagers to begin with.
