List of video game exclusives (seventh generation)[edit]

AfDs for this article:

Articles for deletion/List of video games exclusive to a seventh generation console

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

List is a compilation of other lists with non-exclusive titles removed. We already have List of PlayStation 3 games released on disc which is well cited, while this list is not well cited and is a fan synthesis of lists. See previous deletion discussion for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of video game exclusives (eighth generation). Having this article is redundant.

Note that there was a previous deletion discussion for this list back in 2009 with a result of no consensus. Odie5533 (talk) 17:06, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:IINFO. This is wall-to-wall fancruft OR. An article about the concept of console exclusivity might be ok but an unsourced list of games makes no sense. All of these lists are redundant to existing content on the subject. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:12, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per the consensus formed form the discussion of the the 8th gen AFD mentioned in the nomination, which is the same concept as this list applied to a different timeframe. Sergecross73 msg me 22:12, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per nomination and rationale from the previous AFD on 8th generation exclusives. WP:NOTIINFO. Ajf773 (talk) 04:13, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment it appears this article has been nominated once before, under a different title (which now redirects to here): Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of video games exclusive to a seventh generation console
If I recall correctly, I created this list because the information was removed from the main lists. It looks like it has been appropriately slotted back in. Weak keep as I think some readers would prefer to see all exclusives on a single page. –xeno^talk 05:46, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, the nomination did already link to the last AFD discussion... Sergecross73 msg me 13:16, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A lot of reliable sources do give coverage to exclusives, and the exclusives are an important part of this multi-billion dollar industry, it what determines what console people will buy. Dream Focus 08:10, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the consensus developed at the 8th generation AfD is convincing, and I buy the WP:OR and WP:NOTIINFO concerns. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:32, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per consensus established at eighth generation AfD; I can't see any reason to go against that Spiderone 17:22, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
