Age Rating: "16+ (For children older than 16 years)"? Why?
I see that the game's age rating is 16+.
Here is a screenshot: http://i63.tinypic.com/21e0n0o.png
But why? There's no mistake?
I would like to know what became the reason.
In my opinion, the game does not contain any delicate content.

Is it only because the pig smokes?

Hmm that does seem odd given that vitual console releases of the original are only rated 7+

But the original version also has a smoking pig.
So much of the gap in the ratings is strange.

I think the same way.

Therefore, there is an error on the page with this game. Developers should see and fix it! Perhaps, because of this error, they may lose sales.
