💨 Abstract

Steam and Nintendo have updated their guidelines to curb 'certain kinds of adult-only' games. Steam's new rule vague mentions payment networks requirements, leading to removals of games with explicit themes. Steam additions are aimed at ‘certain kinds of adult-only content’, but may additionally impact LGBTQ-catering games. Nintendo’s eShop, especially in Asia, now limits game bundles, restricts 'sensitive content,' and penalizes inaccurate game descriptions.
