The PS4 and Xbone are already out, but they're still listed as upcoming. Gotta change that. --[[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 12:08, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

: Also removing 'recently discontinued' that are five years or more older:
−
* DS: 2007.
−
* Gamecube:2007.
−
* Dreamcast: 2001.
−
* GBA: 2008.
−
* Xbox: 2008.

:The numbers for the Nintendo DS are wrong. Only the ''original model'' was discontinued in 2007. The DS Lite was produced until 2011, and it seems they have only discontinued the DSi/XL in Japan on early 2013. In fact, they still sell it in the US&A.

::''Shakes fist at Wikipedia.'' "I trusted you!"<br />Yeah DSi and DSi XL are still being manufactured. --[[User:Mozai|Mozai]] ([[User talk:Mozai|talk]]) 00:25, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

Now we have to get rid of the flamey junk and add some actual content. I can't help much because I have neither of the new machines, but I put placeholder tables in their pages. --[[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 08:25, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

:: ''"flamey junk"'' this is /v/, distinguishing shitposting from emotionally-charged sober thought is an NP-hard problem. ''"actual content"'' is something Dejiko is working on quietly to avoid strategic voting, and accuracy takes time. --[[User:Mozai|Mozai]] ([[User talk:Mozai|talk]]) 15:11, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Another idea, how about breaking the "Current consoles/handhelds" column into two rows. Also, put it in proper alphabetic order:
−
−
:Current consoles
−
::Microsoft Xbox 360
−
::Microsoft Xbox One
−
::Nintendo Wii U
−
::Sony PlayStation 3
−
::Sony PlayStation 4
−
:Current handhelds
−
::Nintendo 3DS
−
::Nintendo DS
−
::Sony PlayStation Portable
−
::Sony PlayStation Vita

: Done. Played it loose with the alphabetic sorting so that more recent releases are closer to the top. Not sure about the simple grid layout, may tweak that later, along with adding the more obscure but current gaming hardware. I'll tinker on that [[User:Mozai/FrontPage|elsewhere, probably]]. --[[User:Mozai|Mozai]] ([[User talk:Mozai|talk]]) 15:11, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Shouldn't PSP be retired? DS doesn't have games coming out for it anymore either unless we're just going by what's still being manufactured, but if we do that I thought Wii Minis were still being produced. IMO it should just be 3DS + Vita at this point. [[User:Hypoxium|Hypoxium]] ([[User talk:Hypoxium|talk]]) 21:35, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Maybe Windows Phone should be added to the current mobile list. --[[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 21:44, February 23, 2014 (UTC)

== Impasse: merging art/title columns? ==
−
−
There seems to be an edit conflict at the arcade games page: Kitsuneae has merged the art and title columns, positing that it saves screen space, no one sorts columns by image, and is more readable. I vehemently oppose this change because it looks uglier, actually far less readable, and is inconsistent with pretty much EVERY other page in this wiki. -- [[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 02:34, January 14, 2014 (UTC)

I agree, it looks disastrous. The current style has been tried and true through various edit wars, debates, hissing and cat fighting way back when this shit started. It was basically the only style everyone agreed on, and I worked my ass off back in the day to make all the pages that existed back then to conform to that style. It works fine. If it's a space issue, then get off the shitty 'new' wikia look and go back to the superior monobook, nii-san. [[User:MFGreth1|MFGreth1]] ([[User talk:MFGreth1|talk]]) 14:43, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

== Java icon ==
−
−
The "Java ME mobile phones" entry in the main page uses the logo as an icon, which doesn't have the right proportions. [http://vsrecommendedgames.wikia.com/wiki/File:Java_icon.png Here] is a proper 32x32 icon, plz replace kthx. --[[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 15:22, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Gotta ask some mod to add those pages to the main list. Or ask to unlock the front page. --[[User:LYRIC-Stormwatch|LYRIC-Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:LYRIC-Stormwatch|talk]]) 15:05, March 11, 2014 (UTC)

== Wikia 1x1 images ==
−
For no good goddamned reason, Wikia started replacing images in pages with 1x1 data urls. Not my fault, I don't even know who to complain to. --[[User:Mozai|Mozai]] ([[User talk:Mozai|talk]]) 14:52, November 16, 2014 (UTC)
