Super Smash Bros Brawl has an alias for Brothers, But the franchise and the two other games in the series do not have an alias for Brothers

Also, is there a way for N + to show up when you search for it? Because as is, you cant find it in the drop-down search bar

The character + can't be searched no matter what you do. But maybe an alias of "N Plus" would help with searches.

mm, the trick is letting other people know that they have to type in the word "plus"

I dunno about this one but.....

Titan Studios (which are the current Dev's for Fat Princess) were recently known as DarkStar Studios before bought up by Epic Games China.

I'm not sure how the rules go as for Developer Aliases but I don't think that there should be two seperate pages for Titan Studios and Darkstar.

I think Titan Studios should simply have an alias of "Darkstar", and that the DarkStar page should be deleted.

Got some WarioWare-related alias changes here:

WarioWare (franchise): Made in Wario
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!: Made in Wario and WarioWare, Inc.: Minigame Mania
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!: Atsumare!! Made in Wario
WarioWare: Touched!: Sawaru Made in Wario
WarioWare: Twisted!:
Mawaru Made in Wario
WarioWare: Smooth Moves: 
Odoru Made in Wario

There's a couple of corrections needed too:
WarioWare: Snapped!:
"Utsusu! Made in Wario!" shouldn't have exclamation marks in the Japanese alias.
The
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ page needs an exclamation mark at the end of it's name, like the GBA game.

Just took care of a lot of these, although any requests without a proper link were ignored. Please include links when asking for an alias to be added. Also, things like "EZMHD" and "MHFU" were not added as aliases...I'm not sure we want to get into the practice of adding acronyms for every game, so unless you can make a strong case for your acronym being added as an alias it probably won't be.

Same goes for "Air-Sea Battle Add the alias Target Fun, just an alias to it"...that's not really sufficient justification for the addition of an alias.

Thanks to everyone for being patient, I know some of the other moderators have been checking this thread but I try to check it myself at least once a week or so.

I was wondering about this one, FarSight Studios used to be called FarSight Technologies, so should they have alias of that or not considering it's basically the same name?

Acclaim Cheltenham needs the aliases Probe Entertainment and Probe Software, it's former names.

FIFA International Soccer needs the alias FIFA International Soccer: Championship Edition, it's European Sega CD release name.
