Line 588:
* ''[[Skies of Arcadia]]'' is considered to be a spiritual successor to ''[[Phantasy Star]]'' since both were developed by Sega's Overworks studios, and they're both turn-based roleplaying games. In fact, some fans consider Skies to be more a successor to Phantasy Star than [[Phantasy Star Online]].
* ''[[Valkyria Chronicles]]'' too is considered such to ''Skies of Arcadia''. While Valkyria is a strategy RPG instead of turn-based, it has some members of Sega's now extinct Overworks studios on its development, and even Skies protagonists Vyse and Aika [[Previous Player Character Cameo|make a cameo in it]].
** It's also been described as one to the ''[[Sakura Taisen]]'' games, especially given how many of the same people responsible for developing them were also involved with ''Valkyria Chronicles.''
* ''Pochi & Nyaa'', apparently the last game [[Compile]] released before bankruptcy, was an obvious attempt to recapture some of the gameplay and aesthetics of the ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'' [[Cash Cow Franchise]] which they no longer owned.
* ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'' can be seen as ''[[Live a Live]]'s'' Spiritual Successor due to the similarities of both games.
Line 606 ⟶ 607:
* ''Project P-100'', an upcoming Wii-U project by [[Platinum Games]], seems to be based somewhat on ''[[Viewtiful Joe]]''.
* The Sega arcade game ''[[Congo Bongo]]'' may had seemed like a blatant ''[[Donkey Kong]]''-ripoff, but in reality the game's developer, Ikegami Tsushinki, was the same company Nintendo contracted to handle the programming for ''Donkey Kong''.
* Eugen System's ''Wargame'' series is generally treated as this to its own RTS game ''R.U.S.E.'' albeit set during the [[Cold War]]. Its other RTS game ''[[Act of War]]'' and ''Act of Aggression'' are seen as this to the ''[[Command & Conquer]]'' franchise.
