Delete has been speedy deleted twice recently but the author says that there are more sources he's adding, I'll let the community decide whether the new sources (a preview of them are here) is sufficient; I think not. Carlossuarez46 00:57, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. One of the sources is actually an independent source, but it's still an unpublished game that doesn't appear to meet the criteria.  No prejudice against recreation after the game is released, if it becomes notable. -FisherQueen (Talk) 01:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Game is WP:NN as nonexistent. This article is a WP:CBALL. --Evb-wiki 01:20, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Arrr Deletimashta - Shiver me timbers, this article is NN and not even released yet. Kapow! I do think Blackbeard vs Minimoto would be awesome though... ;) Sayonara, Spawn Man 01:45, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep A ton of games are up for development that also have a Wiki Page, if you delete this you might aswell delete all of them. If you remove this then remove Halo 3, Fable 2, Killzone 2, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elven6 (talk • contribs) 02:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, for the very reason noted by the unsigned above: all those games s/he references as being delete-worthy are well known prior to their release. Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball? Yeah...not so much. --LeyteWolfer 02:22, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Are you kidding me? The Prime Minister of New Zealand just proclaimed yesterday a national Pirates vs Ninjas holiday! She even shaved her beard for the occasion! ;) Spawn Man 04:01, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep based on my understanding of notability and WP:CBALL policies. This has verified articles documenting its release, so it is still valid under the WP:CBALL page. In addition, it has multiple independant references. This would satisfy WP:NN. Is it silly? Yes. But notability is not supposed to be subjective, and looking at the policies, I believe it qualifies as notable. Turlo Lomon 06:11, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I hope these guys realise that releasing a game based on a minor web meme is probably a bad idea: by the time it comes out, the meme will likely be mostly forgotten (it already appears to be on the decline). In any case, delete as crystal-ball-gazing.  Even the article admits it isn't very far along (they don't know what systems it'll be on, etc.) Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  12:51, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete When it gets further along in development maybe, until then its just vaporware and an advert. --Chuck Sirloin 13:23, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
