Talk:Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What to Eat?

Requested move
The article should be moved and replace the article at Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What To Eat?. Cooking Guide is the official name of the European release of the game. Misterkillboy (talk) 15:58, 21 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Already moved. Parrothead1983 (talk) 23:56, 21 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Now somebody must move it to it's proper name, wich is Cooking Guide: Can't decide what to eat? (as you can see on most websites, including the official, the game cartridge, ansd the boxart) and not Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What to Eat?.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Von Mario (talk • contribs) 14:35, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm not too clear on the value of this article...
Is this a product that is both sufficiently popular and significantly groundbreaking to be worth a Wikipedia article? I don't think it's proddable, and I don't want to clutter AfD with a nomination that's essentially a straw poll, but at the same time I'm deeply unconvinced of its value as an article. Haikupoet (talk) 23:38, 23 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I think the article meets both criteria you cited. It is popular enough to spawn 3 sequels in Japan, and be translated and localized for a Western release. It's also pretty much the first of its kind, both on the Nintendo DS, and video game consoles at large. It probably has just as much value as the numerous other cookbooks listed on Wikipedia.

Subtitles
These "subtitles" seem rather iffy to me. Both "Can't decide what to eat?" (uncapitalized) and "Shaberu!" seem more like slogans than subtitles.--SeizureDog (talk) 00:08, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The subtitle appears on the title screen in game, at least with the English version. All official press also uses the full title of the game. Misterkillboy (talk) 01:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Please change the name of the article. It clearly says "Can't decide what to eat?" not "Can't Decide What to Eat?". It's not a subtitle at all. Please remove the caps. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.255.72.12 (talk) 15:07, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Just wonder...
Do they plan to publish any of the sequels outside of Japan? 20:49 27th Jule 2008 (CET)

NA Title
Perhaps I'm overlooking something, but it seems that "Cooking Guide" is the EU name of this, and "Personal Trainer: Cooking" is the NA name. so why is this article not titled as the NA title? I mean, we don't have Star Fox 64 under Lylat Wars. Pythagorean * Hypotenuse Man (talk) 19:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Because this is not the Star Fox 64. This is the English Wikipedia, not the American Wikipedia. Every single article is handled case-by-case - it's been at the PAL title for many months, and has been released there for many months sooner. There's no compelling reason to change it to the American title. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 19:17, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I did not realize that the game had been out in Europe for so long. Pythagorean * Hypotenuse Man (talk) 20:53, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Why do you call it a PAL title? , its not Phase Alternate Line - Resolution is it? .. handheld games cannot be NTSC or PAL, its a TV-resolution! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.226.125.82 (talk) 06:25, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It's a region. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:15, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Sekai no Gohan Shaberu! DS Oryōri Navi
I checked out Sekai no Gohan Shaberu! DS Oryōri Navi (世界のごはん しゃべる！DSお料理ナビ) and I noticed that this is the Japanese version of Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What to Eat?/Personal Trainer: Cooking, so does this mean that Shaberu! DS Oryōri Navi (しゃべる!DSお料理ナビ) is completely different compared to Cooking Guide/Personal Trainer: Cooking? Parrothead1983 (talk) 04:13, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The code base is likely the same if not identical (save bug fixes and localization). The differing titles are only relevant inasmuch as how to decide what to actually call a unified article; otherwise, it's largely a question of which package contains which content. I think a reasonable case can be made that the Japanese, Euro, US, ATK editions are all essentially different content packages for the same program, and it's hardly unusual for the same product to have different packaging and content between different markets even in the same locality. (Hell, sometimes the same product even has a different model number in different stores.) Haikupoet (talk) 18:17, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
