Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin

Ugh naming:

• The Amazing Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin': Sega CD boxes
• Spider-Man: all other boxes (no-intro uses this for the MD version ROM name; not sure about GoodSets)
• Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin: the title screens (no-intro uses this for non-MD versions; not sure about GoodSets)

Apparently there was also an Acclaim game called just Spider-Man also on the MD?! Plus all the other games... Spider-Man should be made a disambiguation page, but what about naming of this article? - Andlabs 21:19, 12 May 2011 (CDT)

I made the disambiguation... but I'm still unsure about the names of these articles >:O - Andlabs 12:31, 13 May 2011 (CDT)

That's totally correct. Definitely the common title for all versions is Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin, as that's the one that is always featured in the title screen, no matter if the version was done first (Mega Drive), a little later (Master System, Game Gear) or much later (Mega-CD). It's the box naming convention the one that differs and can lead to confusion, especially given the fact that, as you pointed out, there's a Spider-Man game by Acclaim in the Mega Drive which was based on the 1994 animated series.

To sum up, I suggest the article should be renamed to Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin, and then point out the specifical naming conventions which were given to the game boxes of the different versions. - Wesker 19:33, 2 October 2011 (CDT)
