Eh, I'd say only split it off if it has enough examples to warrant doing so.

Thanks. Any other thoughts?

Split it off. The subpages for Visual Novel and Video Games are not combined especially not under such a title.

I agree with wrm5. They're enough of a grey area that the general rule should be "If there are none or only a handful, they can be rolled up under Video Games. If there are enough to warrant a separate page, that's fine too." Just don't create a separate page if there's only one or two examples—this isn't a Trivia or YMMV subpage.

EDIT: Ninja'd and seems like we're wrong. But then I don't play VNs so I'm probably not that knowledgeable about how similar they are to vidyagaems. :p

I was gonna just have visual novel examples under Monster.Video Games (once I finish the Sandbox).

I think Septimus pretty much settled that: No. They are not combined.
