Because there isn't a Db-game for games that don't show notability, I've taken it to AfD. Author created page with hangon, don't know why. Delete. Doesn't deserve own page.ηoian ‡orever ηew ‡rontiers 20:34, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete and possibly speedy (A1) for insufficient context, but it is certainly unverifiable and possibly a hoax. MuZemike (talk) 20:07, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment The game is "ゴジラ・ジェネレーションズ". Here it is at Japanese Amazon. Here it is at Sega. Here is a lengthy article on it... God only knows what sort of Wiki-madness goes on in the "notability" guidelines for games, so I'm not going to attempt a !vote here. But, yes, languages other than English do exist. Though, obviously, Wiki-consensus has serious doubts as to their "notability." Dekkappai (talk) 23:59, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment we're questioning it notability for its own article. I would feel that it belongs in a article about Godzilla Games as a section, not its own articleηoian ‡orever ηew ‡rontiers 06:16, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Have you read WP:BEFORE which specifically states that there is no need for bothering AFD when a useful redirect can be made?? Neier (talk) 11:56, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Redirectto Godzilla video games, currently the article contains virtually nothing more than a fully formatted list entry would provide, and is in good company with the majority of the older Godzilla games in a very poor state. If that's all it's going to ever be then there's little point in giving it its own box. It isn't a hoax, according to GameSpot it's one of four Japanese Dreamcast launch titles. There's that GameSpot review, and according to Gamestats it was reviewed by Famitsu, so there is some potential for an article if someone with the ability to obtain decade-old Japanese magazines, translate them and wishes to expand the article suddenly appears, or the creator of the article has something up their sleeve. If someone found a second review which could be cited then I'd gladly switch to keep, but the last thing needed is another perma-stub which the vast majority of editors could do nothing with even if they had the inclination.

- Keep Well slap my ass and call me Candy, here's a CVG review, not the hugest review in the world but from one of the UK's oldest gaming institutions, it'll do for me. Someoneanother 00:00, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
