No online sources, not even Nintendo themselves, cover this game. Therefore, this game does not exist, meaning that this article is merely a joke article. -- ThomasO1989 (talk) 14:32, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I should also add that the "official" logo used on the article is licensed under Creative Commons and the source of the image is "Own work."--ThomasO1989 (talk) 21:13, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, as unreferenced. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 00:46, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – The only mention of such a game comes from two years ago [1], which is probably not even the same game. Otherwise, complete lack of verifiability. –MuZemike 20:57, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is no chance this is the same game. A jet ski is a type of watercraft and the fact that WaveRace 64 was mentioned makes it clear that the game mentioned in the citation was a racing game on water. The game the article mentions in set on a large mountain and all involve snow related activities such as skiing and snowboarding.--76.66.188.209 (talk) 04:05, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - a "similar images" Google search on the "official logo" returns nothing. The author has not responded to Thomas's challenge for sources, except to revert without comment. A search using the katagana only returns related games such as We Ski and Resort. This is a work of fiction. Marasmusine (talk) 11:20, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Suggest changing to Speedy delete as blatant hoax. - X201 (talk) 11:35, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have taken your suggestion and changed the template to Speedy Delete. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 11:50, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
