I'd like to put in my 2 cents into the fanservice debate: I usually don't mind it when it's in games like Senran Kagura and Dead or Alive for the simple fact I don't play the as I never wanted to play them because I have no interest as to me that has seemed to always be the only thing they've got going for them.
What does bother me is when it appears in an established franchise that didn't have it at first or if it did, the "fanservice" was debatable if it really was fanservice at all. The two that come to mind are Fire Emblem and Digimon both have recently started to get fanservicey (even though in FE's case it's mostly becoming more like a fanfiction dating sim, although there are the beach DLCs who give some very fanservicey poses) in Digimons case just google Kyoko Kuremi, and compare the Angewomon art from back in the day to her recent art.
