Talk:Star Raiders

message: I would buy one of the Sega/Genesis systems if they re-released that game, it was that good, IMO.
Just expanded the article greatly with considerable wikification and external links.  I think this game is more historically important than Wikipedia has heretofore indicated (but maybe it's just that I liked it as a kid).  Anyone have the resources to get a good screenshot we can use? --Matt McIrvin 13:08, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Currently, most of the game screenshots shown a green background with the shields enabled. This should be blue, not green. It would be nice to replace these with shots from a corrected palette. Clayhalliwell (talk) 19:52, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Green?

message: I am currently working in collaboration with others to expand the stub for the 2011 Star Raiders sequel, Star Raiders II.  We are currently working on a talk page, but hope to move content to the actual page soon.  If anyone can provide missing information or suggestions, the help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! KellyD78 (talk) 16:00, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The 2011 game is a re-imagining of the original 1979 game, not a sequel. Likewise it was never called Star Raiders II. That's the name of the actual  1986 sequel to Star Raiders. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 23:01, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Star Raiders II 

message: I did a major re-write of the article re-doing the production, release, and other elements. A lot of it used sourced material from the previous version and others I've added here. If there are any questions or comments, I'd be happy to discuss them. Andrzejbanas (talk) 04:41, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Re-write 

message: I was under the impression the game was released in 1979 for a long time but recently research and sources suggest otherwise. I believe most people jump to the 1979 date, because when playing the game, it has a big "(C) 1979" in the display. However, the published box says (C) 1980, I can barely confirm that the Atari 400/800s were even released in 1979. As for specific sources,
* The Gamasutra source states March 1980. .
* The trademark registration of Star Raiders states the earliest date for "Commercial Use" being in March 1980.(here) Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:19, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: You may be right, but it needs a source. It's commonly been listed as 1979 for decades and most of the game databases echo that. Dgpop (talk) 21:29, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I've provided two sources that give specific dates. Databases rarely give any indication to where the data comes from, so I don't think they really hold any weight. Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:33, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Release 

message: Do not add or suggest terms that an author has written in their review. Per WP:STICKTOSOURCE which states "Even with well-sourced material, if you use it out of context, or to reach or imply a conclusion not directly and explicitly supported by the source, you are engaging in original research; see below.". In this case, the term "Killer App" has been re-added. It shouldn't be, because that is not what the author has said. Andrzejbanas (talk) 05:00, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
