Falls just short of notability. It got a decent piece from Digital Spy, but Eurogamer is very brief and not substantial. There's seemingly a review from Edge magazine somewhere, but it's nowhere to be found. All other reviews provided in the article are unreliable per WP:VG/S. Nonetheless, with the little substance provided from Eurogamer and lack of coverage overall, I don't believe a substantial article can be made with the material available even if WP:THREE is technically met. λ NegativeMP1 23:42, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

- [1] This should satisfy WP:THREE.- Cukie Gherkin (talk) 03:58, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Nom themselves said it would be notable if the Edge magazine review were tracked down and lo and behold, Cukie Gherkin tracked it down. Therefore it is clearly article-worthy. Potential length is not a criteria for deletion, as long as the key facts can be described, and they certainly can. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:41, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep There's some coverage by Retro Gamer: [2], [3], [4], [5]. Even though none of those aren't that substantial, and Eurogamer review is short, I think it's just enough to pass GNG. --Mika1h (talk) 10:50, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Keep WP:GNG is met with Digital Spy, Edge, Eurogamer, and Retro Gamer sources (I consider the Eurogamer and Retro Gamer ones (this one specifically for the latter) significant coverage). Skyshiftertalk 02:32, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- There is apparently a review from Official Xbox Magazine (UK) at issue 64, but I couldn't find the issue. On another (related) note, Apple Jack 2 might be notable with reviews from IGN, Eurogamer, and Edge. Skyshiftertalk 03:25, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
