Talk:Eroge

message: This is in fact contradicted by the previous paragraph's game, To Heart wich beat the eroge to anime conversion by several years. At least according to the articles linked too and also as can be clearly seen by anyone who has seen the anime in question.
I don't feel upto editing the page myself but thought this should be adressed.
:I don't see any mention of them being the first game gone anime. In fact, neither is the first eroge to become an anime, off the top of my head I can name Dōkyūsei as being an eroge-to-anime conversion before To Heart. _dk 10:21, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Is Well-knownness NPOV?  How is well-knownness determined?   There are some games that I and everyone I know kows about, but aren't listed in here.  On the other hand, a few of the games listed I've not heard of, even though I am an avid eroge player. -Afker 05:36, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hm... the obvious answer is WP:NOTE. I would argue that having the big list of games in this article doesn't really contribute much. Perhaps we should separate the English-translated games into a subcategory of :Category:H games, and then get rid of this list (and some of the related lists). — PyTom 07:40, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree.  With between 300~400 new eroge each year, "notability" is really hard to be NPOV about, unless you go by sales rankings done by Japanese Magazines or something. -Afker 07:20, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Well-knownness 

message: I am the webmaster for The Virtual Sex Review and I would like to link my site here which I believe is quite relavent to the topic of Eroge.  The url is www.thevirtualsexreview.com and the site focuses on reviewing interactive sex and erotic themed games including those in the genre of Eroge and Hentai.  For example, there are reviews for Beauty 3D and Hentai 3D which are both Eroge games.  Besides reviews, the site pulls in RSS feeds on the topic and features forums (although not many posts there yet).
I have seen other "sex game" review sites linked here or in other appropriate articles.
Thoughts and opinions?

message: Is To Heart really erotic in nature? It's not marketed that way and the anime` shops never put it in the Hentai section. I haven't seen it myself, but the reviews I've read of this series never discuss it as an eroge series. Silverstarseven (talk) 17:11, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Classification 

message: Eroge: "Competing systems included the Sharp X1, Fujitsu FM-7, MSX, and NEC PC-8801. NEC was behind its competitors in terms of hardware (with only 16 colors and no sound support) and needed a way to regain control of the market. Thus came the erotic game."
But, in NEC PC-8801: "For its time, the PC-8801 had a high display resolution, but could only display 8 out of 512 colors simultaneously. ... Its sound-producing capabilities were also more advanced than other machines of the time."
So, was it really "behind" or not? -- NZeemin (talk) 18:28, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Look in Japanese. If you want to bring this to an AfD, I can assure you it would be kept, likely with WP:SNOWBALL grounds. Just because you cannot read Japanese, doesn't mean sources don't exist.陣内Jinnai 21:08, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: No, I'm looking in the article.  That's where the evidence of notability should be, and it isn't there; that's what the notability tag signalled.  If you know of sources, add them -- speculation here is not useful.  Kenilworth Terrace (talk) 21:18, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have to. That is not how wikipedia works. If I find one, I might add it, but unless you bring this up to an AfD and for a legitimate reason WP:IMPERFECT says otherwise. A topic is not unnotable just because it lacks sources. That is not how things work.陣内Jinnai 21:22, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, that's exactly how things work.  The common theme in the notability guidelines is that there must be verifiable objective evidence that the subject has received significant attention to support a claim of notability.  Kenilworth Terrace (talk) 16:48, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Again, that doesn't require the sources be in the article itself. Finally, WP:N is a guideline, not a policy. Again, I'm not saying this article shouldn't be referenced though.陣内Jinnai 19:24, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia:Verifiability, which is a policy, states that "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation".  Your argument that the verifiable sources required to demonstrate notability need not be cited seems quite incorrect.  However, if you believe that such sources exist already, by all means point to them.  Oh, and per WP:NONENG policy, When citing a source in a different language, without quotations, the original and its translation should be provided if requested by other editors.

thread_title:  Notability 

message: Apparently, the following used to be in this article (and remains in searchable archives):
:"Japanese eroge, also known as H-games or hentai games, ..."
I read the discussion at the top of this talk page about "H-game / hentai" being removed because of something from a Japanese source. However, on en.WP. terminology should reflect English usage.
Anyway, I'm trying to find out what the term 'H-game' refers to in order to clarify a section on an article that I'm working on. Frankly, I know almost nothing about this stuff. If anybody could clarify the following sentence for the article, please do so - hopefully with a cite, (it currently doesn't have a reference, and might be removed otherwise).  There is also mention of the "Visual novel" Atlach-Nacha, which I might have mistakenly sorted into the 'Literature' section - is this 'Visual novel' the same as the 'H-game'? —From: Cultural depictions of spiders#Games and toys
:"Atlach-Nacha is an H-game centered on a spider demon disguising herself as a human woman."
