Merging into Computer and Video Games?

I tried tagging the article for primary sources, the only significant coverage I see referenced is MCV/Develop. The article's paragraph about the publication reporting being referenced doesn't constitut notability. I would recommend merging into a legacy legacy section on the CVG one, this one is far too large for what it is. IgelRM (talk) 21:58, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
