Notability

@Sergecross73: Are there specific notability guidelines for video games? Wicka wicka (talk) 14:02, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:VG/GL has plenty of notes on how to write articles, but notability-wise, it mostly just operates on the general notability guidelines, which isn't met with a one sentence, one barely reliable source article. Sergecross73 msg me 14:04, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sergecross73: Can you also tell me if the article still requires more citations, or can the box at the top be removed? Thanks! Wicka wicka (talk) 16:03, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, its good now. Sergecross73 msg me 17:26, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Is the incomplete template still necessary?

It's been a couple months now and it seems that the article has been cleaned up. Also seems to be more start-class. Epicandrew1220 (talk) 17:19, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Prose

From the lead: Originally designed as a Wii U game, it was later released for the Switch due to a lengthy development time and gained assistance from Nintendo to create the game. The subject of this sentence isn't clear. "It was later released for the Switch [...] and gained assistance from Nintendo". Minor re-jiggling needed.
- I've made a reword. I'll agree it is a bit of an odd phrase. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:21, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
~~Also from the lead: critics praising the games' tone, should be game's.~~
~~A sequel is currently in development for the Switch, named Sports Story with [...] -> A sequel, Sports Story, is currently in development.~~
~~[...] originally in development as a Wii U title by Sidebar Games' -> Sidebar Games~~ ImaginesTigers (talk) 13:33, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This was a straightforward one after all. Promoting. ImaginesTigers (talk) 20:00, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
