Talk:Virtual Boy Mario Kart

Can someone please add more information to this page? It's a real game and it shouldn't be removed. Pengmunk (talk) 21:02, 11 September 2012 (EDT)


 * Once a proper reference is placed, then maybe some work can begin on it. The ref u placed does not work... 21:22, 11 September 2012 (EDT)
 * Yes a Nintendo Magazine reference does count as a proper reference.


 * No no as in I can't access it... yes of course it would be proper otherwise. 21:28, 11 September 2012 (EDT)
 * So all those strategy guide references and magazine references need to be removed because they aren't proper sources eh?
 * Raven Effect's right, you know? Pengmunk (talk) 22:06, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

for the sake of clarity, here's the relevant scan.

For what it's worth, I don't think this deserve an article, it's the same situation as the Donkey Kong CD-i game where the only thing know is" it existed" and thus there's absolutely no material for a decent page. Until more information surface, it'd be better off as a note on the Virtual Boy page. --Glowsquid (talk) 21:45, 11 September 2012 (EDT)


 * sorry sorry now I realized that if you have the book you can access it. Again sorry. I thought it was a hyperlink to another page on the net. 08:26, 12 September 2012 (EDT)

Screenshot of Toad
The screenshot of Toad driving isn't from Virtual Boy Mario Kart. It's actually a screenshot of a fan-made game for the Virtual Boy named Mario Kart: Virtual Prix. I recommend that the picture is to be removed. Pengmunk (talk) 00:10, 15 September 2012 (EDT)


 * Yes, we only cover official content, If the image is confimed to be fake, then it will most definitely be removed. But can I just have a link to the source regarding the fan-made port?

Delete this and put what little legitimate content there is on the Virtual Boy page
pretty self explanatory,

1: Half of the article is either speculation, or extrapolated from a screenshot of this homebrew game.

2: With that in mind, the only truthful thing that can be written about Virtual Boy Mario Kart is "The game was listed in an obscure german magazine", which for all we know, could be mistaken or lying. Leaving aside the reliability issue, there's pratically nothing to write about the game beyond "It (may) exist". It's worth noting, but it's just that - a footnote.

Support

 * 1) Glowsquid - I have to type "per proposal" as asinine as it is.
 * 2) Totally agree, Glowsquid. All we need is wrong info on our wiki pages. Also, half the info is already on the Virtual Boy page; the stuff where it's talking about how Virtual boy is discontinued. We could totally merge.
 * 3) Per all.

Oppose

 * 1) Let's just add more info. After all, they're 2 different articles.
 * 2) Per Electical Bowser jr.

Comments
@Electrical Bowser jr. What else can we add? There's (pardon the pun) virtually nothing about this article. Wikipedia barely has a chicken scratch about it. There is nothing we can add. There's no harm in merging them.
 * Sorry to interupt the above conversation but I looked at all the virtual boy game articles a while ago and this wasn't there. Has this article only been created recently or something?

@opposers: The problem here is that you can't "add more info" without totally bsing (as the current state of the page proves). This image is literally all that is known about the game. --Glowsquid (talk) 22:25, 30 September 2012 (EDT)

@Glowsquid: if we can't add any more information on this article, why isn't it marked as a stub? If it lacks information, shouldn't it be a stub? (correct me if I'm wrong on that). It has a signaificant amount of information, even for a cancelled game. There is no reason to delete it.
