So the list of unreleased games. In my opinion, it either needs to be cut, or limited to widely verifiable entries. Considering that somehow Donkey Kong Country 2 is on that list, at least some of those entries have to be based on rumors and hearsay. Overall, I don't think the list of cancelled games really adds anything, but I can see why some might find it interesting, but there definitely some entries where some actual citation is needed.

The only questionable entry I can find is DKC 2. Many of the others I'm aware that were planned (for example, Riqa and Grand Theft Auto were on the way during 1999-2000, and many of those Nintendo and Rare games would be Moved to the Next Console, namely the GCN). Right now I don't have the time to verify all the games, but many of the names do ring a bell to me. So I would keep the list with some trimming.

135 - 169 - 273 - 191 - 188 - 230 - 300

Unless we have a situation like Castlevania: Resurrection (game was completely canned without being moved to another console or reworked but has a playable build), I feel like noting any unreleased games would be better suited to the individual Trivia pages for the relevant works. Lots of games get cancelled and it's information bloat.

I vote the whole thing just be cut entirely. I can't think of another console page with an unreleased games section, let alone one as long as this. Like Kaxrida said, it's just bloat.
