Useful source for convincing the Opra haters out there. Eurogamer, undeniably a reliable source, clearly attributes PTs releases to Opra. Sergecross73 msg me 00:04, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can the article be raised from Start-Class?

Lead/infobox

Link localization to Video game localization
Nintendo should be linked on its first mention, not its second
That logo image is really low quality - this isn't a GA criteria, but you should replace it with the one from the Oprainfall website.

History

Nintendo stated that their work on Kirby's Epic Yarn and titles for the new Nintendo 3DS, The Last Story was too much effort. I think I understand what you're getting at (they had their plates full already?) but I don't think this sentence works. It probably needs a "with" or "due to"
, but the company's American branch "the company" would refer to "Nintendo of Europe" here, which isn't what's meant.

Comments

@ProtoDrake: A really neat article, and about a subject I find very interesting. I noted some minor issues above; if you address them within a week, I'll promote the article to GA. Also... while not part of the GA criteria, you should remove the Youtube link per WP:ELMINOFFICIAL as it is already linked from the Oprainfall website.--IDV^talk 21:26, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@IDV: All done, including the image. --ProtoDrake (talk) 21:34, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ProtoDrake: Thank you! Operation Rainfall is now a GA.--IDV^talk 21:40, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work on this. I've loosely watched over the article ever since I saved it from deletion years back. It's come a long ways - nice to see it as a GA rather than, you know, non-existent. Sergecross73 msg me 21:47, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Japan-exclusive titles"

Xenoblade Chronicles was never Japan-exclusive, it had already been released in Europe and Oceania. That's why the dub is in British English! 2A02:A452:E444:1:1451:AAE9:3ABD:A0D5 (talk) 19:15, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
