Restored

[edit]

Restored the article. It was reviewed in Weekly Famitsu, and given several previews in American gaming magazines before cancellation. It even got an ad in EGM. This page lists all the known coverage it got in American gaming magazines. It was covered in the 2016 book "Nostalgic Famicom Perfect Guide", which covered it twice on two separate pages. I can't read Japanese, so I can't use that source much. Also covered in HG101.

I think this is enough to pass GNG. Obviously, more JP sources exist, but it's quite difficult to access them. Harizotoh9 (talk) 23:41, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Since when is a magazine ad a sign of notability? And what content in the other previews warrants this dedicated article? Because all we're going on right now is a review from which we have no content. Not seeing the point of this restoration if it's going to be content-less. czar 10:28, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There's no rule that says new articles have to be massive, which is why I rated this "Start class". The HG101 source is the most in-depth and in Engilsh, but I haven't really read it yet. I also haven't translated most of the the two profiles in "Nostalgic Famicom Complete Guide" yet. First profile is under Bishojo games, and another one for what looks like game competitions. Looks like there was some kind of content or competition after release. That can be used to expand the article. With time, more JP sources will be found, and likely more English ones too.

If the game doesn't have significant coverage (which includes the idea that JP sources "must exist"), we handle the game summary style in its developer's article until the source material is significant enough to warrant splitting out to a separate article. czar 15:43, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
