Keep - 10 dedicated professional reviews from Metacritic alone. Many are from print magazines or reliable sources like IGN or Gamespot. Meets the WP:GNG. Sergecross73 msg me 19:16, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, it looks like a weak case for keep based on those sources. So IGN + GameSpot + the PS mag (if anyone can find it), but what else? Electric Playground? The rest are mostly unreliable (or offline) unless I'm missing something. czar 07:41, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what standard you're holding it to - 3 itself is enough - but yes, there are more out there. Gamespot wrote a pretty lengthy preview on it here too. There's further coverage if we're lumping the GBA version of it in the article, which it currently seems to do due to the identical name. Sergecross73 msg me 14:19, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

IGN review for GBA version, AllGame review for GBA version, Nintendo Power also has a review of the GBA version apparently. The problem is I think all of these sources including the Metacritic ones might be for a different game. Choro Q video games says there are multiple games released as Gadget Racers. These sources are all for Choro Q HG (Gadget Racers in NA, Penny Racers in EU), whereas Gadget Racers (2002 video game) is about Choro Q HG 3 (Gadget Racers in EU, cancelled in NA). --The1337gamer (talk) 16:58, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
