This does not look like it will pass WP:ORG as this is more like a business to business brand and hardly anything else as I only heard of the joystick brands who it supply to. As I tried looking [1] and [2] this article does not say how they are notable, all it says that their products is arcade quality, their buttons is fitted on [x] brand joystick or that they are a leading brand but not how just like this article, so in other words, more like Wikipedia assisted notability.

• Delete Current article is 100% OR, so removing unsourced content means removing the entire page. No comment on notability, as being a Japanese company makes it hard to tell if there are Japanese sources. CorporateM (Talk) 01:33, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Commment Checking Japanese sources, it seems it does get decent coverage in the gaming press, especially at the major game shows, where it sets up a big booth: [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], etc. There's even a video report on their booth from Famitsu, the major gaming magazine in Japan: [9]. I am not that familiar with the Japanese gaming press, so I would like to hear from those who are. Michitaro (talk) 05:47, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Commment If this survives, as agreed with an IP user on the talk section, this article should be renamed Sanwa Denshi (arcade game component manufacturer) to avoid confusion with Sanwa Electronic who share the same kanji in its first four letters (三和電子) and use the URL sanwa-denshi.
