  • New style (with this template)
    • Allows to display 4 alternative names in the height previously taken by 2 alternative names, so technically is reducing 50% of the wasted space

  • This is a real sample of the current style with a "problematic" game with 1 main name, 2 alternative names, and 1 indicator to the PS3 remaster release (in this case is mentioned the name of the remaster, but in many games of the list is only mentioned "PS3 version available" because the name is the same)

  • At some point i made a collection of tags grouped together in the Template:notes intended to be displayed at right columns of the compatibility lists and i included one used with syntax: {{notes|ps3port}} specifically dedicated to indicate that the game was re-released for PS3. I like it visually but doesnt allows to indicate the exact name, and overall i dont like the idea of keeping any mention to game names at right because my main goal is to reduce the amount of texts in the right column of the compatibility list to the minimal--Sandungas (talk)

  • So the best solution seems to be this style, is easy to use and is not restricted (up to 10 alternative names by now but we can increase it if needed). All game names to the left column, and also any mention to the PS3 ports either a dedicated line with the sentence "PS3 port available" or the explicit PS3 game release name (incase is different)--Sandungas (talk)
