Title

The Talespin game creates a new situation. We have TaleSpin (video game) which the 1991 game by Radiance Software + Others for three different platforms (same effective game), while the new one above is Capcom's for NES but also released in 1991. Can't use the year to disambiguate, and having multiple platforms makes the first one difficult to find a simple title. --MASEM (t) 12:57, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Both articles appear rather stub-esque. Wouldn't it be reasonable to just merge them together (e.g. "List of TaleSpin video games", or keep at first article's name)?

This could either be merged as proposed, or if the Sega and Capcom games both have enough coverage, convert TaleSpin (video game) to an WP:SIA linking to TaleSpin (Sega) and TaleSpin (Capcom) and mentioning the article-less TaleSpin (NEC) (unless the latter also has enough sources for a standalone).

Wouldn't TaleSpin (Capcom video game) and TaleSpin (Sega video game) be preferred? ~Mable (chat) 08:27, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, judging by the infamous Aladdin precedent and because it's multimedia, you would be correct. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 15:33, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
