Bots in games
it is important part of electronic games so it is request it should be mergered.User:Yousaf465
 * Strong oppose. I think bots are almost entirely confined to a subset of electronic games called video games. Bots have little if anything to do with electronic games in general. What does it mean to speak of a bot in a discussion of pinball machines or slot machines? I suggest merging with the video games article if anything. -Thibbs (talk) 07:00, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Chess
The article does not mention electronic chess boards, one of the most well known non-video electronic games I should think. Electronic battleships could do with a mention too. Not sure how to put them in; may do it myself when have time unless someone else wants to write them in. Carlwev (talk) 19:02, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

A very early game is not mentioned in the article - where would it fit in?
Before any of the teletype games that are listed here, there were electronic game machines with dedicated hardware and displays. The earliest example is Bertie the Brain, which had a visual display, and which was played by thousands at the Canadian National Exhibition in 1950.. Where in the article should this be mentioned?&mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 15:21, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It's a (early) video game so the best subsection would be: Electronic game. But there were several early video games so I'm not sure it would be WP:DUE to only mention Bertie the Brain. If we want to talk about the early video games, it would probably fit best under Electronic game. -Thibbs (talk) 00:31, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
