“Eroge is a hugely popular genre of visual novel both from established producers and fan circles, and can be further divided into smaller categories such as nukige (抜きゲ) or ‘jack-off game’, referring to a game that is intended to provide⟳ easy access to sex scenes or other erotic material to facilitate masturbation.”

“As well as the effect of loosening content restrictions, the key point⟳ here is that Japanese videogame regulation is fractured by platform multiplicity. Small publishers producing games such as dating sims, visual novels, and ‘nukige’ (masturbation games) cohere to self-regulate, and more serious sexual content is confined to the PC market, dominated by adult consumers.”

“Unlike nukige, visual novels that focus⟳ primarily on sexual interactions between characters, the focus⟳ of eroge is on the story, including more romantic or emotional relationships.”
