[edit] Freezie

What is it about this Nintendo item called Freezie that makes it inclusion-worthy on Wikipedia? Or is every Nintendo item that can be cross-referenced between two videogames inherently noteworthy? "Freezie" +Nintendo = 209 unique google hits. [1] --GRider\^talk 18:11, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Strong Keep. Articles like this are one of the strengths of Wikipedia. Where else would all this information go, if not in this article? Meelar (talk) 20:16, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
• See Super_Mario_Bros._3 - Merge all items related to the same game into one article for easy comparison. In this case, that would be both the Mario series. Radiant! 20:37, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, gamecruft. Wyss 22:16, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Merge or keep. Information like this is one of the strengths of wikipedia. Kappa 22:18, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, like the others. Xezbeth 22:23, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete like all the rest of this gamecruft. ComCat 04:00, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable - 209 hits isn't really all that great for a game, nintendocruft. Megan1967 06:56, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, like Goomba and Koopa. These things are notable enough and of some interest to those interested in the Mario Bros. series. Sjakkalle 07:55, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Trim, merge, and redirect, as above. -R. fiend 18:38, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• I will say merge with Mario Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, redirect to the former. Andre (talk) 22:55, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep-- There are a lot of articles just like this one that have never undergone VfD. 67.81.191.226; 09:32, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, but cleanup. I notice quite a few factual inaccuracies. The notion that Freezies were not in Ice Climbers (which is not a series) is absurd - that's where it originated. - Chardish 07:17, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment never doubt the ability of gamers to dig up obscure trivia. Ice Climber was a series, consisting of the original, an arcade Vs. edition, and a deluxe updated Japan-only Famicom edition. There was also a GBA remake. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:34, Mar 12, 2005 (UTC)
