List of franchises established on Nintendo consoles

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This list is overly specific - I don't see the merit of what brand of console a franchise was "established" on, not to mention that the franchise may have been a multiplatform release. There are no references and the list is the only one of its kind. While categorizing what company owns the franchise is important, this is overdoing it.

 * Weak delete – seems a tad trivial of an intersection. MuZemike 21:45, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Merge and rd to List of video games published by Nintendo; duplicative, as franchises adds little else. JJL (talk) 02:51, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge per JJL, basically. This is far too similar to the numerous other categorisations we have already. Haipa Doragon (talk • contributions) 19:34, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Although some of these games aren't on the List of video games published by Nintendo (some of these are third-party published games on the consoles), there really isn't any need for this kind of list. If we were to keep this, we'd have to have List of franchises established on Sega consoles, List of franchises established on Sony consoles, and etc. -- right now, this is just a content fork. -- Nomader (Talk) 07:38, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
