List of last games released on video game consoles

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This list lacks sufficient sourcing (mostly unsourced, and no suitable sourcing exists). We'd have to rely on original research to determine the "last game" released in almost every case, and even with that we'll struggle to find the actual release dates to verify the claim.

 * Delete simply because it is impossible to cover this topic without resorting to original research 90% of the time. This list knows no scope where we can mostly make use of reliable sources. Also, I do doubt the correctness of many of the listed games (Brazilian games released for Sega systems, for instance), but it seems impossible to find out what the latest game per console is. Also unclear distinction between "published" games, "released" games and "created" games. ~ Mable ( chat ) 16:17, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per sourcing issue identified by Maplestrip. In the rare case where a game is established as the final game for a platform, that can be noted in the the game's article and the platform's article, but as that's going to be the exception and not the rule, a list to document those is not appropriate. --M ASEM (t) 16:20, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per sourcing issues and agreement with other thoughts expressed above. BcRIPster (talk) 23:10, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Userfy and delete, it's not impossible to verify, just very difficult. Maybe someday it'll be covered in textbooks or museums. Axem Titanium (talk) 02:44, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. While this is a list of "officially" released games, a lot of these games released last are redlinks that I don't see being created anytime soon. So by that logic, those games aren't notable by themselves to have an article. Also, it isn't clear what "last released" actually means. See PSP games in North America: Sweet Fuse: At Your Side (last retail game), Class of Heroes 2 (last physical release), StreetKix: Freestyle (last original game), Brandish: The Dark Revenant (last digital release), Summon Night 5 (last localized game). --Soetermans.

 * Yeah, I was discussing this some too in the discussion that led to the deletion discussion. There are a lot of factual errors regarding the PSP entries. I'd clean it up, but I figured it looks like its moving towards deletion, and I wasn't sure if there were the sources to do so, so I didn't bother.

 * Delete as a non-notable topic. This is fairly arbitrary criteria where many factors affect a "release date". While "useful" is not a deletion criteria, I don't see how this list is helpful in encyclopedic manner. Not to mention verifying the individual items would be WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Truly "final" game by some criteria can be mentioned in game's and console's articles. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 17:32, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as most of this is just original research and can also be called listcruft. --TL22 (talk) 22:58, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Reliable sources just don't seem to consistently document this. I'd be fine with someone recreating/restoring it if sourcing can ever be found, but I've looked into this before, and it can be hard to find conclusive answers on this. Sergecross73   msg me  14:52, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
