Nihon Bussan → List of Nihon Bussan games – I could not find significant coverage of this company in reliable secondary sources in either English or Japanese (WP:ORG / WP:CORPDEPTH). But many of the company's games are notable. I propose the article be moved to List of Nihon Bussan games and made to be a standalone list. -- Relisted.

 * Notable-ish I've just added an English source from Business Japan. Japanese sources suggest the company is belly up. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:47, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * WP:CORPDEPTH is pretty hard to satisfy here. I figure whatever information we do find about the company could just be added to the lead of the list. If somehow we found a lot of reliable sources in the future, we could always create the article again. Also, I don't think it's completely defunct. They made the remake of Crazy Climbers for Wii and mobile platforms recently. --Odie5533 (talk) 15:04, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Possibly. I, or yourself, could have made up the number of sources by linking some of those bank/creditor links on the Japanese page. There'll also be coverage back in 1990s in the Japanese-language business press at the time they were "unique" according to Business Japan. But I'm not sure that dragging banker notices around is legally a good idea. I evidently don't feel strongly, but I did add the one Business source I quickly found, and can't be bothered to look for more. Cheers. See what others say.

 * Oppose - there is no valid reason to move this article to the suggested title. JoshuSasori (talk) 02:20, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * My reason is that otherwise the article should be deleted. I do not think the company is notable. --Odie5533 (talk) 02:26, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure that Japanese-language sources for the article exist. JoshuSasori (talk) 02:31, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Would you please share any evidence you have that supports the claim that Japanese-language sources for the article exist? Also, such sources must provide significant coverage as required by WP:CORPDEPTH. --Odie5533 (talk) 03:15, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * The Japanese wikipedia article contains a list of references. You could start there. JoshuSasori (talk) 07:54, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * None of those appear to be both secondary and offering significant coverage required by WP:CORPDEPTH. What specific articles do you believe meet CORPDEPTH?--Odie5533 (talk) 08:31, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Most of the Japanese wikipedia references a magazine called "geemu mashin" (game machine) which seems to have fairly extensively covered the company's actions. The back issues are not online so the references merely refer to "news from ten years ago" or "news from twenty years ago". I didn't look for anything else, there is probably enough material out there though. Don't see what you are trying to gain from this delete/convert to list action. This is the end of the conversation for me. JoshuSasori (talk) 12:53, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Nonsense
This article is complete nonsense. Did this come from machine translation or something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Namcokid47 (talk • contribs) 21:17, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * (signed and sectioned this while I'm on it) For what it's worth, I sort of cleaned the history section on sight. FMecha (to talk|to see log) 22:24, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Nihon Bussan → Nichibutsu – WP:COMMONNAME, at least in English-speaking media/gaming circles. FMecha (to talk|to see log) 22:20, 14 January 2021 (UTC) —Relisting. Iffy★Chat -- 22:34, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose Nichibutsu is one of two main brands fo rthe defunct company. I'm thinking that the article should remain at the company's name as the article title.  Regards --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 02:46, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
