Please see the deletion rationale at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cancelled games for Sony consoles. Group noms haven't gone well for me in the past, so I am nominating other lists like this individually but the same rationale applies to each. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Video games for other noms. I don't see a redirect as useful, but they are cheap and I have no objection to one. // Timothy :: talk 20:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

- Redirect - As i've stated on the 3DO, Jaguar, Lynx, N-Gage and Genesis discussions, a redirect is better than getting all of that info being wiped out completely... Roberth Martinez ( talk) 21:02, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - Nom rationale does not apply. The argument to delete on the other articles was that "List of cancelled games on <platforms by company>" was a bad scope, not "List of cancelled games on <platform>". TarkusAB talk/ contrib 02:54, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - Same as most of other cancelled games nominated for deletion: sufficient notability, reliable sources and good scope. Deltasim ( talk) 15:15, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - All of this is just a WP:GAMECRUFT magnet. Namcokid 47 (Contribs) 16:00, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Request for sources: @ Deltasim and TarkusAB: the subject of the article is "List of cancelled X68000 games", not an individual game. SIGCOV requires the subject be addressed directly and indepth. None of the sources in the article address the subject directly and indepth. Would you list some sources you found with SIGCOV for the subject discussing it as a group, not mentions about individual list items? // Timothy :: talk 16:48, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. A well-sourced and clearly-defined list of appropriate scope. Phediuk ( talk) 21:03, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Keep The list meets policies generally, but the automatically updating counter is probably not necessary. Could also use some more fleshing-out of the surrounding prose. Elliot321 ( talk | contribs) 09:55, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Don't see why other AfDs should be used as a precedent for this AfD. Azuredivay ( talk) 04:09, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Unlike the prior lists that are mentioned in the nom, this list makes the effort to source that the game was either cancelled or considered to be cancelled by a third-party source. The issue on the prior lists was the presumption that "no game after X years" == "cancelled" and providing no affirmative sourcing to show that otherwise. -- Masem ( t) 20:30, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - per the close of all the other recently kept similar articles. The precedent us that it’s not acceptable to list per company, but is acceptable per platform. Sergecross73 msg me 15:48, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
