Pier Solar: Official Thread

I think to gain a stable wiki page your just gonna have to contact the big video game websites / magazines directly and see if they'll interview you!

there's a link for wikipedia for you :P

Hey, thanks! That should be of help!

Chances are they will, and yeah, that would help a lot seeing as Wikipedia has to rely on reliable third-party coverage for its articles.

I wish it was that easy. What do you think we have been trying the last 2 years?

Magazines seem so damn uninterested in MD-homebrew.

[Christuserloeser]

Well, since now you're getting closer to the release, and there's a new trailer and demo out...

[Joe Redifer]

Somehow Brandon got interviewed by a bunch of mags and his games aren't even homebrew. They're Ancient Chinese Secrets.

[Fonzie]

We lacked of time to handle all those details. But now that we have a new Public Relation member... héhé

[Bramsworth]

I'm still wondering how that Japanese magazine got those screenshots of the game. Surely someone sent them out somewhere. Either that or someone got hacked by leet Japanese hackers

[johnnyb]

... it could have been ninja`s....

Please do not just post "keep". Post something that changes people's opinion.

Okay, now I need someone with a Wikipedia account to post "Keep per DCEvoCE." As it is we got two votes for a deletion by respected Wikipedians, and only one by some guy (me) against a deletion.

You could also post "Keep because the game is notable for the ability to play its music from the Sega CD or the 64-MBit cartridge."

I would attempt to help in this regard, but my doing so would only inflame their strict "meatpuppet" policy and get nowhere.

I lost my old account, under a different IP address entirely, so there's nothing really justifiable I can put forth without the outside interference banner being waved against it from my newer account.

I just advise you guys to back up the article, which in itself would end up being re-written almost entirely for the better anyway once it's released with hindsight as a factor.

The fact that they keep throwing "unreliable sources" around for websites such as this, in that discussion without citing their policy on what defines "reliable" has piqued my interest a bit, but not enough to justify me delving back into the grossness of wikipedia as a whole.

If anyone here has an older account with wikipedia still in use, by all means, help out.

so how is it going with the game
is ready to launch for december

[Christuserloeser]

The Wikipedia article has been deleted by a voting of 3:1 for deletion:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...eat_Architects

I did manage to backup the article though.

[Fonzie]

Ok... thx all for the help regarding wikipedia keep.
W'll put online when time will come then.

I wish good luck to other wikipedia entries that are a lot weaker because having sources doesn't make an information legit.

Take care

It's the 20th Anniversary for the Mega Drive/Genesis and it marks the last day for posterity pre-orders of Pier Solar. To anyone who has been doubtful or low on money, this day is your last chance to get your name in the game and give us some extra support. Although this day is the last for pre-orders, you don't necessarily have to pay today. To everyone, the bits and pieces are falling to place to become a very great game, stay tuned for more news later!
