*Pluralize [[:Category:Toylet]], [[:Category:Toylet games]], [[:Category:Toylet hardware]].

*Correct "Toylet" entry (cargo?) in Bob and ConsoleBob to "Toylets". Then, correct [[:Category:Toylet games]] and [[:Category:Toylet hardware]].
*Sega stated Toylets were "currently limited" to Japan, hinting at a possible international release should the venture prove sustainable. While this never played out, the system's flagship game was localized into English, and at the very least saw some kind of South Korean release.

*Tag images.
*Tag all Toylet-related images with relevant tags.
 
*Manneken Pis DX being demonstrated at trade shows pre-Toylets release implies all games were developed before launch.
 
*Graffiti Eraser has a curious lack of promotional material. Related to it being the only Toylets game to go against its "less mess" philosophy?
 
*SoJ maintained a list of common non-compatible urinals for buyers to look through before purchasing.

Change name to Toylets

A lot of English sites that reported on the system named it Toylet, but that's pretty obviously not what it's indented to be called. If it were called トイレット (Toiretto), then that spells out Toylet, but it's called トイレッツ (Toirettsu). The website has it as toylets, and the assets for the game's entry on SEGA ARCADE GAME HISTORY also call it toylets. That seem alright? I almost moved the page, but maybe just the fact that English-speaking journalists called it Toylet is reason enough to keep it as such. If it does get changed, though, the articles should probably also be rewritten to use "Toylets" instead of "the Toylet". Nicolaas Hamman (talk) 11:24, 11 March 2023 (GMT+2)

I think you're right, it probably needs a name change. I'll go ahead and do the moves for this one :) Question though. What do you think we should use as a singular noun? Like to occasionally refer to a single piece of hardware? CartridgeCulture (talk) 00:26, 12 March 2023 (EST)
I'm not really sure. Yakuza Kiwami 2 has Toylets (even an English logo), so I suppose that's the best we've got for official terminology. As far as I know, it never calls it Toylet, just Toylets, even as a singular, e.g. "Toylets may be a urinal device, but promoting bathroom cleanliness is actually its key feature!"
