*'''Delete''' on top of what’s been mentioned I’m don’t believe the multiple video games that are adaptions of a franchise made by multiple developers and handled by several different publishes should be considered a franchise in its own right as the article is currently implying. To put it another way it makes sense to say that [[Batman (1986 video game)]] and [[Batman: The Enemy Within]] are parts of the overall Batman franchise but considering all the Batman video game together as it’s own franchises doesn’t.--[[Special:Contributions/70.27.244.104|70.27.244.104]] ([[User talk:70.27.244.104|talk]]) 23:57, 3 March 2021 (UTC) |

There are many problems with this list, but I think the biggest is that it fails WP:LISTN. There's no way a list like this is appropriate, given that it's basically a duplicate of List of longest-running video game franchises, a far better list, just with some entries excluded. This list also doesn't even have a proper inclusion criterion. You could add literally any IP that got a handful of games, thus defeating the entire point of a list called "List of longest-running licensed video game franchises".

- Delete as WP:LISTN failure. IceWelder [✉] 16:22, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- kept possible merge it not a duplicate as you mentioned it a list of licensed games so it’s inclusion is it being based on a established franchise unlike the other list, second you mentioned ‘’’ You could add literally any IP that got a handful of games‘’’ this is why the first list has a threshold of 20 years and the others will also have threshold witch i will add to the page soon Fan Of Lion King 🦁 (talk) 16:35, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, as a WP:LISTN failure (I don't see any sources discussing lists of longest running licensed video games.) and as a duplicative sub-group of the parent list. Any long running licensed video games would also be in the parent list, there's no reason to call them out in a separate list. -- ferret (talk) 17:21, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- reply that what I think best added them to the main list (those that qualify) but unfortunately they are currently not allowed if they are allowed to be added then this list would be pointless until then kept the page Fan Of Lion King 🦁 (talk) 17:53, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I do not see why licensed games are special in terms of franchise longevity, such that they need to be listed independently from the all-inclusive video game franchise list. No sources to demonstrate why this is needed. TarkusABtalk/contrib 22:18, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Essentially a duplicate of List of longest-running video game franchises. Even the other is of doubtful notability. Neither has any references. Nigej (talk) 07:38, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
- comment done a quick count there are currently 55 franchises (witch 43 qualify for the main list that currently not on the main page (witch it self has about 104 give or take) if we combine that to make to give us 147 unless we rise the threshold the last time that was rise was in April 18 if anyone was wondering a 30y threshold would only added 28 franchises to the listFan Of Lion King 🦁 (talk) 12:22, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
