I was recently looking through the Nintendo eShop and I saw that every M rated game I clicked on I was not allowed to see the the details of it or download a demo like ZombiU

Can I get any help?

Do you live in Germany? If so, you can only view rated M content there until a certain time.

It's German law that is being applied accross all EU territories by Nintendo, in order to be stupid and lose as much money as possible.
Email them and complain if you're over 18. I did.

since Nintendo of Europe is based in Germany, the law effects the whole of Europe. Not Nintendo's fault but they say they are currently trying to work around it.

Only the EU and UK. It doesn't affect the US. Maybe its to do with the parental control settings on your console.

I have this same exact problem. I also live in the u.s. and if i ever try to view details about an m rated game i get the message that i cannot purchase or view information about the game. But the thing is I already bought ac3 on the eshop. Even though the message says i can't purchase it I did anyway. The thing i can't do is view information about it. The problem with that is that i want to buy dlc for ac3 and i can't because the stupid message keeps popping up. Yes i do have parental controls but nothing is locked. Please Help!

By the way im anomandaris.

by the way i emailed nintendo about my problem and i will get back to you if i ever hear anything from them.
