The result was delete. Yes, !votes from a "random IP" are taken into account, depending on the strength of the argument advanced. "There are no sources" is a better argument for delete than "It actually exists" is for keep. JohnCD (talk) 23:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Just because a game is unlicensed doesn't mean it's not notable. Pirated games that are notable in the gaming community are just as important as Final Fantasy IV or Chrono Trigger. GVnayR (talk) 19:42, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete while being game being pirated does not mean that an article cannot meet the notaibilty guidlines the fact that there are no sources whatsoever is another story. If this game is seen as important as the other two games listed it should not be hard to find several soucres covering it.--76.69.171.174 (talk) 02:01, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Do Deletes count if it's from a random IP? Str8cash (talk) 03:57, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - "It exists" is not enough to qualify for an article. Notability amongst the gaming community is not relevant. The article does not demonstrate where the game has had significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Marasmusine (talk) 14:23, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as insufficiently notable. Per the WP:GNG, a subject must have "received significant coverage in reliable sources." — Satori Son 14:59, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
