Ni no Kuni: The Another World 
Needs to be split into:
- Ni no Kuni: Shiroki Seihai no Joou (PS3 Version)
- Ni no Kuni: Shikkoku no Madoushi (DS Version)
 
I would've done it my-self but there's an article attached to the page for the PS3 version.

No it doesn't. The info so far seems to indicate its basically the same game.

Level-5 debuts a must-see trailer and hints at some major differences between the DS and PS3 versions. 

"The PS3 version of Ni no Kuni is titled "Ni no Kuni Shiroki Seihai no Joou." The subtitle is different from the DS version.

But the subtitle isn't the only difference. As detailed at the official site, while the stories for the two games will be on the "same axle," they're being made separately from scratch and will have different data, specifications and story developments. "Look forward to the two Ni no Kunis," writes the official site.

You're going to have to speculate on what having the two stories be on the "same axle" means. But it does look like Level-5 is trying to highlight the differences between the two versions.

The PS3 version is not due for release until 2011. The DS version will precede that on December 9 of this year."


Not according to those who actually attended their event. On top of the subtitle and plot changes, the books included are also going to see changes. The trailer also reveals a bit of combat for the PS3 version, which looks completely different from the DS version. In the DS version Oliver is part of the party while in the PS3 version you only see life bars for the monsters as Oliver gives commands.

Wouldn't splitting these depend on how much of this information turns out to be fact, and how much of it turns out to be marketing spin?
Tho you're probably right as most DS games tend to be different enough from their console counterparts as to require a separate page.

I think we should wait until we have some concrete evidence before splitting.
