Is the story to this game an allegory of Japan's unwillingness

That would probably be the second SNES game than this one. This one could be seen more as a story about how fame and celebrity worship can damage a culture.

But also it's fucking Goemon, so I doubt any serious interpretations are intended.

I think it's a parody to both visual kei and takarazuka revue.

Takarazuka Revue is a famous broadway-like theatre company that does very flamboyant theatre musicals, all of them are girls and they also play male roles (often dressed as princes and what not). It's very very influenced by european aesthetics (think Rose of Versailles).
Takarazuka is very popular with girls, although there are male fans too (for example, Hideki Kamiya, creator of Bayonetta, Okami, etc is a fan).
On the other hand there's visual kei, a music movement that started in the early 80s and reached its climax in popularity in the mid 90s, especially in 1997 (the year Mystical Ninja starring Goemon was released in Japan) there was the so-called "visual boom", visual kei bands were all across the country on TV, playing lots of Budokan concerts and what not.
In difference to Takarazuka, visual kei is mostly males, but they also play female roles (most famous case is Mana from Malice Mizer). Visual bands are also often inspired by european 18th/19th century aesthetics. Bands like Lareine look like Takarazuka revue stuff, even.

Why is Japan so based?
