This week's content for European Nintendo fans is quite the bevy of scrumptious content. There's a new chapter in the Tales of Monkey Island franchise to laugh through, as well as some new stuff for your little ne'er-do-well in My Life as a Darklord. If WiiWare isn't your thing, you could always shoot everything in sight in some R-Type on the Virtual Console. See? Totally a bevy.

This week is a special one for Nintendo fans. Not only do we finally see an end to the Virtual Console drought, but we also get fighting robots and a new Art Style game. Oh, and then there's Sexy Poker, Gameloft's odd strip poker game for WiiWare. We guess the company never heard of Google image search?

Sexy Poker, an upcoming WiiWare title from Gameloft, has been denied classification by Australia's OFLC, reports Gamespot. The beautiful part: the board declared that the game's "depictions of nudity as an incentive or reward" is prohibited by the "Guidelines for the Classification of Films and Computer Games." A bit strange, considering depictions of nudity have been an incentive in the game of "human existence" since the dawn of time. Of course, this also has a lot to do with Australia's lack of R18+ rating for games.

Fear not North America and Europe, for it appears that Sexy Poker will make it to our virtual shores through WiiWare. The Germans rated the title last month and there's also a listing on the ESRB site. According to the ESRB's content description, the game not only titillates with visuals, but with "provocative comments" like, "I'll always know what's in your hand." What, the Wiimote? Let us waggle it for you, Sexy Poker lady.

And yet, according to the German USK ratings board (via GamerBytes), the Gameloft published mobile phone title is on its way to Nintendo's download service. As you may have guessed, Sexy Poker is a strip poker game, in which ladies bet their clothes instead of money. The goal is to get them to go "all in," as it were.

Considering Nintendo's family-friendly image, we'd say it's highly unlikely that this title will ever see the light of day in North America. We're almost positive the company doesn't condone that kind of thing. You know, gambling.
