replies: text: Hmm...according to MoS guidelines, we ignore unusual typography. I'd say that includes the recent trend towards lack of spaces, but I'm not exactly familiar with the way the video games project approaches these things. Doceirias (talk) 06:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Move to Platinum Games

message: Why was Clover Studios shut down?
In the article Ōkami there is another explanation for the closure of the studio (namely that the key designers left):
"While it was initially thought that poor sales of Ōkami and God Hand (another Clover title released in the same time frame) were the cause of the closure of Clover Studio, it was later revealed that three key developers within Capcom and Clover Studios, Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil series), Hideki Kamiya (Devil May Cry series), and Inaba, had left the company, and the studio was dissolved, such that "now all the resources should be used more effectively and more efficiently since they are centralized."[121]"
In this article it is stated, that the reason for the closure were the poor sales:
"However, due to poor sales of its games (despite positive reviews), in October 2006 the Capcom Board of Directors voted to shut down the studio."
Which version is correct?

replies: text: They're both interpretations, as far as I can tell. Unless there's an interview that I've not seen, what we know is A. Clover was shut down. B. Clover's games sold poorly. and C. The key developers formed their own studio. Everything else is original research, unless we can find a source that goes a little deeper. Doceirias (talk) 01:28, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  True. Then why are these interpretations in the article? They should be removed. Only facts and citable information should remain! 91.113.87.89 (talk) 06:02, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clarification needed  

message: First time doing anything relating to wiki, so apologies if this is done incorrectly, but 
JP_Kellams on twitter said they produced Infinite Space not developed it(https://twitter.com/PG_jp/status/513272762853371904) so shouldn't the wiki page be changed to reflect this since page says they developed it?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by RavenValor95 (talk • contribs) 12:09, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Platinum published game 

message: It was released in 2015 as a webpage game, or a standalone game in 2017? I saw both in the edit history of this article. Matthew_hk tc 19:10, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The original more-or-less silently published version was a placeholder on PlatinumGames' 404 (page not found) site, so it was not precisely "released" or "published" in the classical way. It was, however, officially released on Steam (for Windows) by Sega on March 31, 2017 (and taken down a few days later), wherefore we'd rather consider that version the official publishing date.

replies: text: Didn't know how to handle it, so if that's what we should go with, I'm fine with it. I think a small note about the origins of the game wouldn't hurt though. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 21:05, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  8-Bit Bayonetta 

message: I find the column with notes in the 'Games Developed' section of the game rather disturbing. Isn't a traditional notelist a better idea? It saves a column and since there's so much N/A space in there, I think a notelist is a better way to solve this. Is there a reason the article doesn't have a notelist? TheLegendaryN (talk) 09:49, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: To be honest, both solutions are equally subpar; On the one hand, the notes column offers a clear overview if there are multiple, but heavily clutters if their comments grow too long. On the other hand, the notes efn's are uneasy to access on some devices, sometimes hardly noticeable on others, to which comes that there would be many of those (at ~40%), although they would save a lot of space by only consisting of three characters. I will see if I can build in a compromise to keep the current build, but if it doesn't work out we can change it anyhow. Lordtobi (✉) 10:08, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
