Japan: Wii Mario Kart more popular than PSP erotica
Only My Fruit comes second
A claim that Wii game Mario Kart has been outsold by a breast-baring erotic videogame in Japan have been overinflated, recent sales figures.
Bokudake no Kajitsu: not for the kids
Several websites this week claimed that the PSP smutware Bokudake no Kajitsu - which translates as Only My Fruit - has been selling in greater volumes than the eagerly anticipated Wii title in a few Japanese stores.
Maybe, but Japanese market watcher Media Create's doesn't include the title on its regular weekly run down of Japan's most purchased games. The analyst ranked Mario Kart for the Wii in first place for the seven days ended 13 Apri.
Play at your own pace
Neither Japan’s answer to the ERSB or Sony have approved or rated Bokudake no Kajitsu, leading some to claim that it’s not a game at all – just an attempt to bring raunchy UMDs to the masses.
But some reports have claimed that the title uses interactive menus, has a point and click operation and features animated scenes to help the saucy offering feel more like a videogame.
Although Register Hardware isn’t quite sure what the aim of the game is, we could take a wild stab in the dark – if you’ll excuse the pun...

Re: MarioKart, best game ever
I'd definitely say it's fun, and the Wii wheel attachment works fantastically well - the only thing I'd say is that it is the single most infuriating game I own for it.
The increase to 12 racers and increased number of powerup boxes means that it's mentally hectic - you can drop from first to 12th in one easy jump. I guess that's part of Mario Kart though, and it's great in multiplayer for smacktalk - the only problem is you can't fit the wrist strap on easily, so in single player the temptation to throw that bastard across the room is so hard to resist.
oh and
It's almost certaintly a visual novel/dating sim of some sort where you make decisions at various points that move you down various story archs. Nowdays they also tend to have mini games in them.
Some games are deep and interesting, others funny and exciting and more then a few dull repetative porn fests.
and
it isn't the first such title on the psp, I know they did Comic Party for the PSP and I'm pretty sure they did Clannad, there are probably more though.
If memory serves the DS has a few ecchi titles too.
Wii pr0n
I thought one of the widely touted reasons for not allowing homebrew on the Wii was that someone would instantly use the wiimote for a self-pleasure-simulator. Never quite understood why they would though ... because it's more acceptable when playing with your mates?
Anyway, thirded the NSFW request! Keep finding that the NSFW isn't put into the headline when they first hit the RSS feed as well!
