Obscure Japanese video game that doesn't meet WP:N. Outside a single review from Famitsu, I have had no luck with finding any kind of coverage of this game from reliable sources. Namcokid 47 ^(Contribs) 20:37, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Japanese page is much longer and seems to even cite a book, or at least a source with a page range in 100s... Would be nice to hear from a Japanese speaker on Japanese sources. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:19, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- The Japanese article cites a strategy guide on the series, so I don't think it would help its notability. Namcokid 47 ^(Contribs) 03:29, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge & Redirect to Banpresto - And by merge, I simply mean adding it to their list of games, as it is not currently listed there, and thus would need to be in order to have a Redirect make sense. The equivalent page on the Japanese Wikipedia is considerably longer, but doing a quick google translate shows that this is simply because it does an extensive plot summary/game guide on every character in the game. It does not actually cite any coverage in reliable sources that would establish notability, as the only one of the listed sources that is not a fansource is simply the game's strategy guide. I would imagine that the game was very likely reviewed in Japanese gaming magazines at the time, but until that coverage is actually located and integrated into the article, there is no actual reliably sourced material here, and thus we really can not keep the page as a stand alone article for now.
