Star Soldier vs dodonpachi DAI-OU-JOU[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I did a search for sources on the subject under all three possible names: Star Soldier vs dodonpachi DAI-OU-JOU, Sutā Sorujā vs Dodonpachi Daiōjō, and スターソルジャー vs 怒首領蜂大往生. I found three things. First is this, but it appears to be only a sentence mention of the game. Second is this, but it appears to just be a press release for the 2006 limited edition of the game. Third and last was this, which appears to be a proper review of the 2006 limited edition version of the game, but I don't know how reliable the site is and it was the only review I could find at all. Thus, because of the lack of sufficient reliable sources discussing the game in a significant manner, I would say that this game is non-notable. A sentence or so merge to another article is possible, but i'm not sure where it should go. Silver seren^C 07:01, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Star Soldier or delete This is, apparently, a mobile phone game available solely in Japan. While neither of those facets are a reason for deletion, add them both together and you get "what the hell are we supposed to do with this?" when it comes to sourcing and expanding the article. The links in the article mostly lead to 404 errors, a search brings up a lot of WP mirrors and 'lecture notes' sites (?) which don't link to anything. The chances of anyone having both the ability and the inclination to do anything with this are non-existent. Someone another 04:15, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
