We’ve just gotten off the phone with a second Nintendo representative who informed us that, despite what retailers have been told, Nintendo are not seeking out an MA15 rating specifically.

We’ve now spoken to both the Australian Classification Board and Nintendo regarding the classification of Dead or Alive Dimensions. The game has now been put in the unique position of having its classification revoked by the Australian Classification Board, and we now have more details on precisely why that has occurred.
We’ve just gotten word that the Dead or Alive: Dimensions, which was the subject of much controversy in the mainstream media as of late, has had its classification revoked. We’re currently looking into this and will have more information soon.
Tokyo game maker Tecmo Koei delayed 3DS game Dead or Alive: Dimensions and action title Troy Musou for “various reasons”. The new release dates are TBA.
