I'm seconding the pop-up menu. As cluttered as it all may seem, getting rid of a few extra icons will not get rid of the pages they link-back to. As long as every game and its iteration has its own page, it will need a quick and simple link-back. This is a wiki. We're supposed to be informative. Trying to oversimplify it to the point where entire game entry pages go unnoticed is counterproductive, to say the least. So to prevent clutter, I say the pop-up menu is the way to go. --[[User:Webber22|Webber22]] ([[User talk:Webber22|talk]]) 16:06, 16 September 2015 (UTC) | I'm seconding the pop-up menu.

{{Chitalian8|time=16:22, 16 September 2015 (UTC)|talk= My alternative would be something like a cut down version of the main page mouseover icons, with only the rereleases/other versions in the pop-up? | |||

It wouldn't need to have all of the fluff like the ones on the main page (so no characters, game description, or tagline), but would retain the essential information. That way, we could still have the icons fo the rereleases, but they wouldn't take up as much real estate. | |||
The only problem is, the fact that the icons reside in the corner of the screen could pose a problem with how it shows up in the browser, so it could easily get cut off by the window boundaries. | |||
