Not sure why, but the page is listing the wrong games as unreleased. It should be Battletoads in the Sega Master System section and Battletoads in Battlemaniacs in the Sega Game Gear section. Rather, it lists Battletoads for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Game Gear as both released and unreleased. (Wesker (talk) 12:14, 25 August 2020 (EDT))

Yeah, maybe that's the convenient thing to do, given that Battletoads for the Sega Master System was going to be a Virgin Interactive game, handled entirely different to the Battletoads for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Game Gear handled by Sega. I'll do that in a while. It still doesn't explain why the unreleased Sega Game Gear version of Battletoads in Battlemaniacs doesn't show up, since that one was also by Virgin and was clearly going to be a faithful counterpart to their Sega Master System version of Battletoads in Battlemaniacs.

Sooo, is there any possible way to make the unreleased Game Gear version of Battletoads in Battlemaniacs show up here, or is not really possible at all? Without bugging the Master System version at all, that this. Splitting out these two in different game pages like it was done with the Master System version of Battletoads is not really advisable here because, while that one was handled by a different company than the Mega Drive and Game Gear versions and probably would have been out much different, in this particular case both versions were being handled by the same company (Virgin Interactive) and it's assumed that both would have been pretty much the same conversion.
