March 2009
- Wild Snake - Super Nintendo Game by the creator of Tetris.
- Also apparently on Game Boy, Reviewed by Nintendo Power according to GameSpot.
- This one is almost certain to be notable (WP definition), but the sources will be locked away in old magazines. The question is whether the request is left indefinitely, moved up the queue or removed because it's not something we're currently equipped to deal with. Someoneanother 00:57, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- Those old magazines are as follows: Nintendo Power #66, Electronig Gaming Monthly #63, Next Generation Magazine #2, and supposedly both versions were reviewed by GamePro at some point. I read the Nintendo Power "review", but in typical NP style it was actually an advertisement. ButOnMethItIs (talk) 18:24, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- I have the review from Super Play. If you're interested, email me. - hahnchen 15:42, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

- Maybe I'm missing something here, but Tetris was created by Alexey Pajitnov, Wild Snake was created by Alexey Lysogorov? It looks like we have one source and that may be wrong, so this might just have to be a redirect. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 20:41, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, so the cover clearly says Alexey Pajitnov, which contradicts the only "reliable source" I've seen, so I'm making this a redirect to his page and adding the name into his list of works. If someone else feels there's enough to make an article, have at it, but I don't think we should wait another 4 years for it. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 20:46, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Pajitnov did not design Wild Snake. He's only the front man. It's like films where it says "Quentin Tarantino presents" when he really has little to do with it - http://www.quora.com/What-was-Quentin-Tarantinos-involvement-in-the-film-Hero-2002 - hahnchen 14:42, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

May 2010
- DJ Max Mobile - A cell phone version of the DJ Max series. Normally plays like normal DJ Max games, but if the player plays it on a cell with a touch screen, they can play it like DJ Max Technika. Unfortunately, the game suffers from degraded sound (all the songs sound like older video game music, and no lyrics), and the M/Vs are gone, replaced by a single still from the song or the still from the song preview.[13]
- Gundemonium Collection - A collection of three PC Indie manic shooters from Platine Dispositif which got an English release over Play Station Network from publisher Rockin' Android. [14]
August 2010

- I have this game and could theoretically help fill in gameplay information. I'm unable to find any third-party sources though. Reach Out to the Truth 21:21, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
- Super Bombliss - Tetris-like game never released in the US as far as I can tell; finding sources seems to be difficult, at least in English.
- Super Bombliss is the Japanese name for Tetris Blast.(see here) I started making an article for the whole Super Tetris/Bombliss series here. Since they are old games that are very similar, there isn't much coverage as far as I can tell. Feel free to help out if you can. Blake (Talk·Edits) 03:52, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
September 2010
- Out of Order - Independent 3rd-person adventure game by Hungry Software.[16][17][18][19]
- Can't find a single valid ref. I'd delete this but I'd like a second opinion. Here's the homepage. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 08:33, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
- Still hoping for a second opinion. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 21:15, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Just Adventure is listed as an RS at WP:VG/RS. So this source from above could probably be used. There's also this and this from Adventure Gamers, and this (in Polish) from Gry Online. So there does seem to be a bit of coverage of the game in the RSes. Sources like this (adventuredevelopers.com) aren't listed as reliable at WP:VG/RS but the link is a retrospective on the game written by the game's creator so presumably it could be used to fill in details as an SPS. If this were AfD I'd probably !vote keep. -Thibbs (talk) 01:41, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

October 2010
- Virtual Grand Prix 3 - Independent race car simulator [20], notable for its quasi-finite elements tyre simulation and its convincing AI. AutoSimSport magazine awarded VGP3 the title of the "3rd best simulator" of 2009.
November 2010
- Pelican Accessories - I don't know if this is the right section for this request, but I'd like to request the reinstatement of the Pelican Accessories article. On Aug. 25th 2010 it was deleted by Jclemens for "Not a notable company" and "article does not attribute reliable secondary sources". I never got to read the original article, so I can't speak to the reliability of the secondary sources, but you can find Pelican Video Game Accessories in most vintage video game collections in the US, all over ebay(Wiki won't let me provide a link but you get the idea) and amazon[21], not to mention their contribution to the landfills of America. Pelican distributed all sorts of 3rd party accessories under their label, and developed some of their own.(They even developed their own gaming system.) Pelican was a very notable contributor to the video game industry throughout the 90's, and I for one would like to know what happened to them, and maybe see a list of their cool products. (I think they may have been bought out by Performance Designed Products[22])
- I doubt I'm entering this request correctly, but I tried to follow the directions and I got some message saying "Cannot find section" and "This page is frequently backlogged." So editing the most recent entry was the only way I could figure how to make this submission. When I looked at Jclemens user page, I saw that he had some sort of award for all his participation on the wiki project. I also noticed that he deleted over eighteen thousand pages! Isn't that a bit excessive? I would hate to think that wiki members are going around deleting all these articles in an effort to have a better user rating... and for what? so they can have more power to delete even more articles. (or this complaint) I understand the necessity to remove disinformation, it's probably more damaging than no information, but whole sale deletion because you can't find verification online is just wrong. For some things, wikipedia is the only online source, and with out it, the information could become lost in obscurity. (for example in the video game world "The Max Media Dock", which was also deleted.)
- Wikipedia is a great idea, but I still think it has some bugs that need to be worked out... Thank you for taking the time to read my rant, and please help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.166.105.15 (talk • contribs)
- The previous article will have been deleted because it was proposed for deletion or put up for speedy deletion, if there were no sources and none could be found then the information would not have been verified - all articles are expected to be verified with sources or at least there should be evidence of such sources existing, without which articles do get removed. When you went to JClemens' talk page you saw their administrator statistics, these aren't a scoreboard they're just statistics, when wikipedia users nominate articles for deletion in whatever way, it's administrators that have to delete them, editors without the administrator tools cannot. There's no point focusing on JClemens because they were just deleting what someone else probably nominated for deletion, and if what you say is true about verification not being available then it is rightly so. We're not empowered to conduct original research here, we use reputable sources so that readers know that the information is sound. Some see this as a weakness of WP, but it doesn't stop us from being able to make thousands of video game related articles, thousands of which have yet to be made, focusing on the ones we can't is pointless. If an article is possible then someone will attempt it, but whether or not it happens this text will be removed once that decision is made as this is an active request list rather than a standard talk page (just letting you know). I hope to look into the possibility in the future. Someoneanother 19:07, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
- Pelican Accessories is a brand name from the company Performance Designed Products. Both Pelican and PDP feature in Google News Archive searches. There's enough material for a reliably sourced article online. - hahnchen 17:36, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
December 2010
- Xona Games - Xona Games (http://xona.com/) and their games (Decimation X, Decimation X3, and Score Rush) should be noted. They are one of the top (the top?) Xbox LIVE Indie Game developers in Japan, with all three of their releases being in the top five spots (out of over 1,400 games) in Japan, http://xona.com/2010/12/12b.html, current rank: http://marketplace.xbox.com/ja-JP/Games/XboxIndieGames?SortBy=TopRated. Perhaps Decimation X can highlight the series. Also, Xona Games has collected a long list of successes, http://xona.com/about.html, and awards, http://xona.com/awards.html. Some of these should be noted. Note: All xona.com links have links to references that confirm the claims.
- Narrative video game or Story-driven video game - Article about the category of video games in which the narrative/story play a major role. [23] [24]
- I don't think this is a good idea. While I do think that articles on video game concepts and elements such as narrative and story are a great idea, we should be careful not to invent genres in the process (i.e. Narrative in video games rather than Narrative video games). ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 07:44, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
April 2011

July 2011
- Clockwork Tortoise - The developers of The adventures of Batman and Robin on the Sega Mega Drive/ Genesis.
- I don't know how plausible this is, only one ref I can find. [26] ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 22:26, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- That would be an excellent source for development, but it's not the basis of a company article IMO. Currently all the different versions are squashed into The Adventures of Batman & Robin (video game), this would make a good basis for a standalone MD/Genesis game article.

October 2011
- Gen'ei Toshi - JRPG with a mature story and strong cyberpunk themes released in 1991 for the MSX by Microcabin. Never localized. Its graphics are extremely advanced for the time and it remains one of the more technologically-demanding games ever produced on the MSX. I'd like to do the page myself, but I'm new here and I'm not certain about the notability requirements.
- I'm not certain it meets notability requirements, but it was an incredibly lavish game for the time as well as having a very mature cyberpunk-themed story. I think it richly deserves the article. I'm just not sure how/if to go about it. Tien Ren (talk) 23:33, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

- List of Science Fiction Video Games- I have found that I've been wanting to search for video games of a specific genera and haven't been able to. It would allow me to wheedle out games of other generas and there by allow me to do a more efficient search rather than having all of the different generas of video games, which are just as varied as books and should be treated as such, cobbled together in no particular order (ex. mixing fantasy with WWII games). This could greatly help reduce confusion for users.
- I think this would be too difficult to classify, with many games not having a place to go. If games should be listed and segregated here it should be done by gameplay type as opposed to the perceived genre for example first-person-shooter, RPG or platformer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AndrewHouseTrip (talk • contribs) 17:08, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

- White Day: A Labryinth Named School - a korean survival horror PC video game released in Korea in 2001. It was scheduled for a release in the UK in 2004 and then to be released in the US soon after. Unfortunately, the company went bankrupt due to illegal downloads of the game spreading on the internet. Because of this, the game has many bugs, and the English translation patch isn't very good. The plot consists of a young boy that the player controls, sneaking into his school at night to leave chocolates for the girl he likes (White Day is a similar occasion to Valentines Day), named So Young. He also sneaks in to return her diary. As he enters, he runs into two of his classmates, two female students who exchange ghost stories in the hallway. It's not until an alarm goes off, that things take a turn for the worst. The player finds out that this school is incredibly haunted by dead students, raging ghouls, and a crazed janitor who chases the player and kills other students with a bat. This point and click survival horror has a very intense atmosphere, and the player will be repeatedly thrown into very dangerous environments. The player must solve puzzles, hide from enemies, run from danger, and quickly roam from room to room of the labryinth like school. If caught by the janitor, you are brutally clubbed to death. There are many obstacles that stand in your way. This game also features lots of decision making, as conversations with other students can change the storyline based on the players choices. The plot thickens, as you start to learn more and more about this mysterious So Young, and the death of her sister. The other students are very wary of her and don't trust anyone associated with her, even you. So gaining the trust of the other students is key. [ Sadly, there isnt much information about this game, and by creating this article, I hope more people can add to the mystery of this game. It's a decent title and deserves a page.]

- Kompu gacha - Free to Play revenue model, popular in Japan. Users buy virtual goods, and then combine them together to get a rarer good (similar to TF2 hats, but more exploitative). When the Japanese consumer affairs agency announced it could constitute an illegal lottery, GREE, Inc. and DeNA lost billions off their market capitalization - that's billions of US$ not JPY, it's that big. I don't know enough about the Japanese industry, or any Japanese to do a decent write up of the article. I don't even know if that name is transliterated correctly, or where the best place for the article is. We should have something on this though. [60][61]

- consists of 3 "worlds"
- each world has 5 musical challenges that are presented by characters
- antagonist is "Gnoise" (play on "noise")
- each level has a door to the throne room, that the player opens with keys obtained from the completed challenges.
- Tank Trouble - The website for the game is here. It is a casual PC game. Users can log in and create up to three mazes which anyone can play. 1-3 players. There are unlimited rounds; you just play until you get bored or whatever. There are 7 weapons which you can collect and use, or you can just use your bullets. Bullets bounce off walls until they expire or hit someone. You only have 5 bullets, when one expires you get it back.

- Caves of Qud - According to TVTropes, which provided the best summary I could find, "Caves of Qud is a post-apocalyptic roguelike game heavily influenced by ADOM and the tabletop Gamma World RPG. Set on a future Earth many centuries after an undefined apocalypse, the game takes place in the titular region of Qud, a jungle-like area bordered by a desert of salt and large mountain ranges, and boasting a large number of ancient ruins." Just by googling it, I found quite a few sources. Unfortunately, I'm a fairly new user, and lack the skill to do so. A few relevant links follow. http://www.roguelikeradio.com/2012/09/episode-45-caves-of-qud.html http://forums.freeholdentertainment.com/showthread.php?10-Welcome-to-the-Caves-of-Qud-beta http://roguebasin.roguelikedevelopment.org/index.php?title=Caves_of_Qud CollinxChu (talk) 23:13, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
