List of One Piece video games
Inspired by FL:List of Castlevania titles, I completely remade the list from it's pitiful former state. G.A.S of the WikiProject Anime and manga suggested, after I requested a reassessment, to nominate the list as featured candidate. It is my first nomination. -- Goodraise (talk) 19:32, 6 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment: Still awaiting the addition of reception of series and popularity prose similar to List of Harvest Moon titles and List of WWE SmackDown video game titles.-- S R X  01:47, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I tried to do this, but came to realize, that Harvest Moon and SmackDown are series of rather similar games as well as being primarily video games series. The One Piece video game series on the other hand is only the third leg of the franchise. (First being the manga, second the anime.) The series' success is mostly based on the success of the anime and manga, which (as opposed to HM and SD) are also the only things all the series' games have in common. But that is a statement, which is hard to source and therefore borders to original research. To the point: seeing "addition of reception of series and popularity prose similar to List of Harvest Moon titles and List of WWE SmackDown video game titles" as being impossible, instead I added some more other reception prose. That, in combination with this explaination, is hopefully enough. -- Goodraise (talk) 14:23, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Comments
 * What makes the following reliable sources?
 * http://www.cheatcc.com/index.html
 * http://www.videogametalk.com/
 * Cheat Code Central and DVD Talk intuitively seem like reliable sources to me, given the topic of the list. As far as I can tell, in Reliable source examples they are both rather in the middle, neither being ruled out, nor supported. DVD Talk is mentioned in a Washington Post and a Star Tribune article, CCC in a New York Times essay. So at least they are not completely unknown.
 * Per the MOS, link titles in the references shouldn't be in all capitals even when the original is.
 * Changed the ones with only roman letters. Should I change titles like "ONEPIECE　グラバト! RUSH" too?
 * Otherwise sources look good, links checked out with the link checker tool. Not that I was not able to evaluate the non-English sources. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Why the ISO dates in the table? Tony   (talk)  10:42, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * FL:List of Castlevania titles uses them where possible. Should another format be used? -- Goodraise (talk) 18:18, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * They should probably be written out to improve readability, and also to reduce confusion. By the way, there is nothing stopping you from changing the dates in the List of Castlevania titles as well. Since February (the list's promotion), style guidelines and general consensus over dates have changed dramatically. As an aside, date linking is deprecated by the MOS.

 * Done. (Though I left List of Castlevania titles alone for now.) -- Goodraise (talk) 02:21, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
