Found Information on Nintendo DS remake

It appears that on 10 June 2012 user @GVnayR: added information about a Nintendo DS remake and listed this Moby Games article as a source. The subject of the article is the original 1986 game for the Commodore, but at the bottom of the page there is mention of the remake under the Trivia section. It's possible that this was added recently, as @Dgpop: wrote on 26 March 2018 that he could not find any mention of the remake in the sources as a reason for removing mention of the remake from this article. Regardless, the MobyGames article also includes a YouTube video of the gameplay of the remake and provides a link to the website of the remake. Finally, on 20 Jan 2019, MobyGames added an entry focusing solely on the remake

It seems like this may be enough information to put mention of the DS remake back on this page. But since there has already been a back on forth on this subject I will wait to see if there are objections. --RampagingCarrot (talk) 04:07, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with it being put back with direct source(s) (not just a MobyGames reference where you have to hunt around to find where the information came from). Dgpop (talk) 14:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, @Dgpop:, I should apologize for being too cavalier in my first comment. I have done most of my content creation in Wikidata, where they are much more flexible on what can be added and what sources can be used, and I misinterpreted your edit summaries to mean you couldn't find any mentions of the remake anywhere. I see now that finding reliable sources according to Wikipedia is a much different beast! Luckily there was exactly one source on the list of reliable video game sources that had information about this remake, and I have included it in the article. --RampagingCarrot (talk) 18:58, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
