I am nominating this for featured list because I believe that it covers the topic completely and is of very high quality. Arkhandar (Talk • Contribs) 22:45, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose The lead needs a drastic expansion, the references need a lot of work on formatting, and I'm not sure that the tables meet accessibility (for example, the tables include a date on each row, but I see no release date header, so this needs to be clarified). — ΛΧΣ21 23:47, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for your input. I fixed the Release date header and other problems, but could you please give some tips on how to improve/expand the lead? I don't know what more should be added, since the title is pretty much self-explanatory. Thank you.--Arkhandar (Talk • Contribs) 00:14, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment There is no header text for the columns with the names. --Mika1h (talk) 15:43, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for your comment. I have added "Name" headers to all tables and fixed other issues. Thank you.--Arkhandar (Talk • Contribs) 15:53, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong oppose no lead per WP:LEAD, references inadequately formatted, tables don't meet MOS:DTT per WP:ACCESS, captions don't comply with WP:CAPTION, use of colour alone fails (yet again), WP:ACCESS, ref titles fail WP:DASH. Recommend instant removal from here, and perhaps listing at WP:PR if someone there is bold enough to review this. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:36, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- What can be done in your opinion to improve color coding in the list? Also, do you think that the lists should have sorting dates? Thank you.--Arkhandar (Talk • Contribs) 17:14, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Familiarise yourself with WP:ACCESS. Sortable dates would be great. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:19, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I have expanded the captions and made the tables sortable. Do you have any suggestions for the lead? Like I said earlier in another response, I don't know what more should be added, since the title is pretty much self-explanatory. Thank you.
- I'd recommend going into the decision-making behind why these different colors were created. Were they promotional? Due to poor sales? How were they received by critics? How did they differ in packaging and functionality? How were they marketed? There's a whole lot that can be done. I've found WT:VG a helpful place to get this kind of feedback, generally. czar ♔ 01:55, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose, as per TRM above, this fails multiple MOS guidelines, and is a long way from being featured quality. This is not the place for drastic article improvement, that should be completed at WP:PR with an experienced editor. Harrias talk 20:42, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose on WP:FLCR #2: incomplete lead, which has the potential to be really compelling. Probably won't be possible to expand in current FLC timeframe. czar ♔ 01:55, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose - This article has the bare basics, but that only earns it a Start-Class. It has no lede, defining structure or anything that warrants FA status. I apologize if I sound harsh, but I feel I should be honest with this. DarthBotto talk•cont 03:30, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
