 * Keep - Taken from one of the articles:The Wii version was nominated for Best RPG for the Wii by IGN in its 2008 video game awards. --http://bestof.ign.com/2008/wii/7.html -- Sure, these articles are in terrible shape, but surely the coverage exists out there if the game was nominated for such an award on such a major gaming website/reliable source.

 * Comment - That being said, I'd support merging the articles together into one "series" type article though. Sergecross73   msg me   19:42, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - Video games commercially released on mainstream home/handheld consoles through physical media on an international basis should have articles; even more so when the developer/publisher is a commercially successful company. I agree the state of the articles is rather dismal, but AfD is not clean-up. There is no doubt in my mind that there are sources for at least two of those articles.

 * Keep all I would not object to merging the Japan only games into a List of Dokapon games, properly formatted with relevant data (IE like this) with similar details for the Dokapon games released in the west. That's not a !vote for that to happen right now, though. The ones released in the States and Europe - Dokapon and Dokapon Journey - are clearly notable., for Dokapon,  for Dokapon Journey. Full-price console games are expensive, and the vast majority are covered by multiple sources, often magazines which are not available to view online easily, the only stumbling block is Japanese-only games which few editors are equipped to do anything with unless the West's journalists get interested for some reason.
