Golf (Virtual Boy)

Unnotable video game with a one sentence article. Failed PROD (removed by article creator). -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 21:34, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game related deletions. Nifboy (talk) 22:06, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete — No proof of notability, i.e. verifiable, third-party sources establishing that. MuZemike (talk) 22:51, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, all releases like this are inherently notable and will have sources in the gaming press. Andre (talk) 00:28, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is no "inherent notability." There needs to be proof. Read WP:GNG and the following section, WP:NOBJ. MuZemike (talk) 02:24, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep: To paraphrase AMiB on this AfD: Commercial video games have a specialist press covering pretty much anything and everything that comes out. I am reasonably sure sources exist. Nifboy (talk) 21:48, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep: Most games released for major consoles are notable. Even in the absence of reliable third-party sources, there's decent reason to believe these sources exist. Randomran (talk) 02:53, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep The article is of poor quality, but the game is notable and will have sources in the gaming press. Multiple mentions of it have been made in Nintendo Power. Tezkag72 (talk) 20:36, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep No sources but has release date information. Wiki131wiki (talk) 16:48, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep and merge - List of Virtual Boy games shows it is a real game, and is not a hoax. It should therefore be merged and redirected to this list. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:05, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The virtual boy only had a small number of games released for it. The uniqueness of the console makes every game released for it notable.--SquareOuroboros (talk) 23:43, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
