If you’re from any kind of bay area/central coast community you’re allowed to do it but for everyone else it’s appropriation

And going even further the Game Boy Mega Man games which started out as sort of downscaled ports of the NES games and eventually just became completely original entries are distinguished by the use of roman numerals in the titles sowith the exception of the first one you get:
Mega Man: Dr. Wily’s Revenge
Mega Man II
Mega Man III
Mega Man IV
Mega Man V
In Japan the subseries is just called Rockman World and uses Western Arabic numerals.

I like when direct sequels have a standalone name that doesn’t refer to the series, like Shadow Dancer and Nightshade. Not very common in videogames.
