May not meet notability guidelines for video games, as it is a compilation, a simple mention on the article for the included games would suffice. Okamialvis (talk) 17:54, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep under the condition that it's expanded upon/cleaned up slightly. Spilia4 (talk) 09:50, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
 * This doesn't really seem like a valid argument for keeping the article. The nominator questioned the topic's notability, and expanding and cleaning up the article doesn't fix that issue. What we need is reliable independent sources that provide significant coverage on the compilation. Otherwise it does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability. Furthermore, we can't expand the article when there is a lack of coverage from reliable sources. --The1337gamer (talk) 14:25, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG. Topic lacks significant coverage from reliable secondary sources. None of the results from a reliable video game source search cover the compilation. There's largely empty product pages for the compilation, but no articles or reviews dedicated to the topic. --The1337gamer (talk) 14:20, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - I can't say with certainty that there's not significant coverage on this game out there (though these 2-3 game retro compilations tend to attract little media attention, and obviously there's little to be said about them in terms of history, development, and marketing), but as it stands there's absolutely nothing in this article that would be lost if it were replaced by a brief mention in each of the articles for the included games, as Okamialvis suggests. In the unlikely event that someone digs up more, they can just recreate the article. It really wouldn't be any more work than bringing the article as it stands up to WP standards.--Martin IIIa (talk) 13:17, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
