Talk:Cave (company)

message: Cave did develop the Touge series, correct?  I'm not 100% sure, but most sites say this.  Also, quite a few sites say they developed Yanya Caballista on ps2, though others say it was Koei.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Linko111 (talk • contribs) 05:48, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: CAVE developed Touge?

message: Anyone know exactly what CAVE means? Rumor is the above. Elm-39 - T/C 19:47, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently, the same is given on the French and Japanese CAVE pages. I think I'm adding it. Elm-39 - T/C 13:38, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: New links!

message: We have multiple articles with either Dodonpachi, DoDonPachi, or Do-Don-Pachi as the title. Sources like GameFAQs write the games without hyphens. However, on some official merchandise CAVE has written the name as Do-Don-Pachi. It is time to reach a consensus on how to title our articles given that at the moment we have a mixture of different versions of the name. For example, the article DoDonPachi employs the second convention whereas Do-Don-Pachi Dai-Fukkatsu uses the third, and Do-Don-Pachi Saidaioujou has a mixture of styles. We need to settle on the use of either:
* Dodonpachi
* DoDonPachi
* Do-Don-Pachi
This could also apply to some extent to Mushihimesama, since the wiki article wikipedia is titled Mushihime-sama but in this case I've never seen that spelling before.
: I think that there can't be a more authoritative voice than the author itself, so if CAVE writes the name as Do-Don-Pachi, that should be the way to go. As far as I know, GameFAQs is a collaborative project so, while it can be a valuable source, its reliability is more or less on par with, for instance, Wikipedia. --Canyq (talk) 00:13, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  The problem is that even CAVE contradicts itself in this matter. Here are three examples where the names are written differently: Dodonpachi, DoDonPachi, and Do-Don-Pachi. Jotamide (talk) 00:20, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

replies: text:  @Jotamide: I've realized that in your first link, the screenshot of title screen on the left shows title written as "DO-DON-PACHI" (with hyphens), the second one is about DoDonPachi Blissful Death, but according to this screenshot, title in title screen is also written with hyphens. However, I can't tell what's the correct option right now, considering that Cave itself is not consistent... --Canyq (talk) 05:38, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

text: I think I will go with this convention and remove all hyphens from game titles. The listings on GameFAQs and the iOS localized games do not have hyphens on them. Jotamide (talk) 18:41, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with DoDonPachi, but not entirely with Mushihime-sama. Sama (様 or さま) is a title, as is kun (くん), chan (ちゃん), or san (さん).  You wouldn't render "Mr. Smith" as "Mrsmith". Instead of putting it together like it's one word, why not just replace the hyphen with a space? ミーラー強斗武 (talk) 18:31, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Despite you being 100% correct I already made a request for a name change for both pages. The game has been written as "Mushihimesama" in official releases, merchandise, etc. I'm more concerned about having the most widely-used names for each article to make it easier for people to find them, than having a correct name just for the sake of having good grammar.

text: I've just read WP:official names, thank you for the link. However, if the preferred title is the most common one, in this case I can't think of a way to determine it... --Canyq (talk) 01:18, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
