Nakazato has served as a director for four video games. I don't think these few credits are quite notable enough for an article; I can't find any information about the person himself. It does not seem to be possible to expand the article beyond a short credits list, with actual biographical information. Megata Sanshiro (talk) 09:47, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well there's this interview and this interview, but those are about the games, not himself. Everything else seems to be directory entries. I think being a director for notable games gives him certain notability. But I can't find more sources, I think we need native language speaker here as I suspect that's where sources might be. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 12:07, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep very boarderline. If there is a bio of him somewhere (in Japanese I'd assume) in an independent RS, this would be an easy keep, but all we can find are the interviews. Given what he does for a living I think we should have an article, but that's more on the IAR side. Hobit (talk) 04:17, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - unless I'm overestimating the role of a "game director", he would meet #3 of WP:CREATIVE? Secondary sourcing will ultimately be required, though. Marasmusine (talk) 21:11, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
