Availability[edit]

In case anyone's interested, there are two of these machines for sale in an antique store in Greensboro, North Carolina that specializes in old arcade machines. It's buried in the back and may or may not work. --Tokachu 06:45, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I never said where you could find it, exactly. Hell if I know the name of the place. But I see that you're no stranger to advertising on Wikipedia. --Tokachu 17:56, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

pics anyone?[edit]

Does anybody have a pic of an original cabinet they could post? Maybe the person above with one for sale can help us out on this one? --67.53.78.15 23:09, 4 Febuary 2007 (UTC)

i added a pic hyper link[edit]

someone else can insert it better hopefully

Merge proposal[edit]

Continuing discussion from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nintendo Super System. It has been proposed that the articles VS. System, PlayChoice-10, and Nintendo Super System be merged into one article titled Nintendo arcade systems. Mz7 (talk) 03:06, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging @Czar, Salvidrim!, Sergecross73, and Bahb the Illuminated: who participated in the preceding discussion. Mz7 (talk) 03:11, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Mz7, the procedural close was invalid. SK#1, which would be the usual close for an AfD that recommends something other than straight-up deletion, has changed in the last year to allow for redirect and merge suggestions in the nom, effectively leaving no way to close a discussion that isn't about straight-up deletion. In any event, please revert your edit. – czar 03:20, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Czar: I am aware of the change to the speedy keep guideline as I participated in that discussion last year. The result of that discussion was that deletion nominations that only advocated for a redirect could not be closed as "speedy keep". Merging is not the same thing as redirecting, however, as merging preserves content, while redirects hide content. Articles that are nominated to AfD solely to discuss merging are still closed as speedy keep per WP:SK#1. Although I still think my close was valid, I will reverse my closure since I'm a non-admin and leave the decision to an administrator. However, please be aware that this may lead to the situation of having to nominate the two other articles for deletion to discuss whether they should be merged.

Thanks. I don't think a re-nomination will be necessary. We have a consensus and 24 hours of bureaucratic obligation to go. – czar 04:24, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Czar: Looking back on the closure in hindsight, I do think now it was a rather bureaucratic thing to do—I also ignored the fact that your position was still for deletion at the time of closure. My apologies for wasting time. The new Nintendo arcade machines article looks great. —Mz7 (talk) 05:42, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

See, I think that one article (Nintendo arcade machines) could include both references to the Playchoice-10 and the Super System. Bahb the Illuminated (talk) 21:12, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
