Trans Erotic Mode

My Japanese is pretty good but I could just not figure out what was the trans erotic mode item on this table in the toy section of a local Fuji City department store. Is there something going on with Minnie Mouse and Pooh Bear that is being censored in the US? (Mickey looks suspiciously happy there next to Snoopy too as he dreams about the Little Mermaid.)

Playtime

gameoff

Reward for being adventurous in eating was a day at the game center. In golf the Japanese follow english language tradition and yell, "Nice-o Shot-o." As for the Fujinomiya game center's choice of a name though all we could think was that was a version of "blowing off" work or school.

Inside, cut girly ads still help move money through the pickachu1 system. Alex and Max enjoyed the shooting game the most since they needed the least translation. In spite of severe restrictions on gun ownership the Japanese are doing a respectable job keeping up with this American pastime at least in spirit.
