Romance of the Three Kingdoms 12 → Sangokushi 12 – This video game from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms video game series was never released in English, and seemingly never will be. For this reason, the current title of the article was never used. The proposed title is the game's title in its only released language, as well as would be the title of the subject in cited context.

- Weak Oppose. While precedent isn't everything, this seems at odds with how other series titles are handled; we have an official localization of the "Sangokushi" series, and it's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms." (See Talk:Valkyria Chronicles III for a similar example, although that case has English-language sources explicitly using "VC3".) Now if there are English-language sources discussing this specific game that use "Sangokushi 12" to describe it, I can be convinced to support, but otherwise, the vast weight of English-language sources that use "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for the series in general probably wins out.

- Oppose the series is already known in English, and has always had the same Japanese name, so we have an English name title for it. -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 04:59, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose. The rationale and only argument in favour if the move seems to be that there is no official name in English. That is irrelevant. Andrewa (talk) 10:52, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Romance of the Three Kingdoms 12 or Romance of the Three Kingdoms XII?
editPer the move request, official names are nothing here. So is it necessary for us to mix the unofficial English title with Japanese-version-styled Arabic numeral?--A Sword in the Wind (talk | changes) 12:24, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
