List of gacha games

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Since the list is limited to "notable gacha games which have been released in an English-language version", it's mostly redundant as most of the gacha games that are notable and do have articles are in Category:Gacha games, and a game having an English-language version doesn't seem like enough of a defining characteristic to require a list.

 * Keep "A category already exists" is not a valid argument to delete a list. Lists and categories serve different purposes and can exist together. The idea of a gatcha game passes WP:LISTN as a viable subject matter to merit a list. The idea of it only encompassing English games is indeed nonsensical, but deletion is WP:NOTCLEANUP. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:40, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep and I support this reasoning fully. Killuminator (talk) 15:36, 26 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment - I'm blanking on what the link is, hopefully someone else can find it - but it basically says that redundancy to categories are not an issue, so you may want to take another angle or this will likely be kept pretty quickly. There might be some sort of WP:INDISCRIMINATE type argument towards deletion - there's a lot of gacha games out there these days - but I'm not sure.

 * You're probably looking for WP:NOTDUP. &mdash;siro&chi;o 20:56, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, thank you, that's it. All I could think of was CATDUP which is of course irrelevant to this. Sergecross73   msg me  22:24, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Defaulting to Keep, as it's been a few days and the nominator has failed to advance a rationale that doesn't violate WP:NOTDUP. Sergecross73   msg me  14:25, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
 * keep Took a moment to evaluate, readily passes WP:NLIST. And indeed, WP:NOTDUP. &mdash;siro&chi;o 03:21, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep Yeah this passes WP:NLIST and I am not seeing anything else wrong with this list.  Mori Calliope fan   talk   17:40, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per above -- Lenticel ( talk ) 01:36, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
