I was able to find replacements for the first two. IGN changed how they organize their articles. Jay32183 (talk) 14:36, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that someone added the Japanese subtitle to its English title, even though the English version is just Mega Man 2; should we keep this? - Shadowboxer2005 (talk) 03:19, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In the reception section, it states that mega man 2 is currently the bestselling game in the series. However, currently, that title goes to Mega Man 11 [1],[2]. However, I am an amateur at citing, and I am worried that since these are fan sites, they can't be cited. Are these exceptions, or have I misinterpreted the rule?
