Line 55:
* ''[[Super Mario World 2 Yoshis Island]]'', although numbered, is a prequel to the main ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' games.
** Though it could be argued that since it's simply called ''Super Mario: Yoshi's Island'' in Japan, it was never meant to be connected to Super Mario World.
* ''[[Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair]]'' and ''[[Wonder Boy III the Dragons Trap]]''. The former is a [[Shoot'Em Up]] platformer hybrid spinoff, while the latter is an Action RPG set immediately after ''[[Wonder Boy in Monster Land]]''; with the prologue taking place in the [[Very Definitely Final Dungeon]] of that game.
** ''[[Monster World IV]]'' has mostly the same gameplay as the previous ''Wonder Boy'' / ''Monster World'' titles, but a completely unrelated story.

* All the numbered ''[[Metal Gear]]'' sequels followed a linear chronology with one notable exception: ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'' serves as a prequel to the entire ''Metal Gear'' canon, being set decades before the events of the very first ''[[Metal Gear 1987]]''. ''[[Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops]]'' and ''[[Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker]]'', both for the PSP, serve as sequels to the plot of ''MGS3'' and follow Big Boss' further adventures before the first ''Metal Gear''.
