:It used to be, but was split off for some reason. I'm not familiar with the Mega-CD version enough to know why -[[User:Black Squirrel|Black Squirrel]] ([[User talk:Black Squirrel|talk]]) 06:09, 5 June 2021 (EDT)

:It shouldn't. This is a totally different version of Prince of Persia not only handled by a different developer, also by a different publisher. Sure they are based on essentially the same original game, but they still are unrelated each other. It's in these cases when the titles are given separate articles. This is another similar situation: [[Doom (32X)]] and [[Doom (Saturn)]]. ([[User:Wesker|Wesker]] ([[User talk:Wesker|talk]]) 08:10, 5 June 2021 (EDT))

::Gotcha, that's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure before I start writing, thank you! And thanks for the info too, I was also unfamiliar with the version differences and this helps to clarify things. I'll amend a note about the lack of relation to each article's respective summaries.

Gotcha, that's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure before I start writing, thank you! And thanks for the info too, I was also unfamiliar with the version differences and this helps to clarify things. I'll amend a note about the lack of relation to each article's respective summaries.
