Super Mario Bros. X

Dubious notability. Sources are all tagged as unreliable and/or dead. I found nothing reliable at all, nor any sort of notability beyond unsourced wank about an alleged copyright scuffle with Nintendo. The tone of the article is very fancrufty and informal, and I'm just not seeing anything that makes it truly notable, nor am I seeing any reliable sources.

 * Delete - Per Nom. I tried cleaning it up once in the past, as it was once much worse, with all these comments about how messageboard members and fans reacted to the game. In the end, it's not worth saving though. Sergecross73   msg me   18:19, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - My prod was deleted and the talk discussion has not convinced me.  « ₣M₣ »  18:58, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Andrevan@ 06:36, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
 * As above, the short Joystiq piece is all I could find. However, this at least verifies it, so we can optionally redirect to Super Mario Bros. and mention in the "legacy" section. Marasmusine (talk) 10:32, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - I beg to differ, if Nintendo cares enough to sic their lawyers on the creator of SMBX, doesn't that make this game notable in its own right? In other words, Nintendo sees this game as problematic, yet doesn't sue over Mother 3? Just my 2 cents I guess. Like all good articles, it needs love, and perhaps needs to be looked at a point of view that isn't a fan's point of view, that way anyone can understand what SMBX is all about. 67.150.84.254 (talk) 04:01, 17 May 2011 (UTC) — 67.150.84.254 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Please read WP:GNG. It's possible to have a lawsuit filed against you but not be notable yourself. Also as I said, there's absolutely nothing that verifies that Nintendo even filed a lawsuit in the first place, so using it as a defense for notability is moot.
