Goonies II
Pepper II
Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head. Goonies II KINDA makes sense since there was a movie before it, but I never understood pepper II. Movies don't count as prequels, just wondering how many game sequels never had a game prequel like the 2 above.
Goonies II had a prequel, it just never got released in the US.

It was released in the U.S. for Arcade purposes only. It can be found on VS. Machines as "VS. Goonies" or the Famicom Rom can be found in Playchoice-10 units as just "The Goonies"
Great game!!

What do you mean? It isn't a sequel unless it follows a preexisting work. Likewise it isn't a prequel unless it takes place before a preexisting work.
By definition no game is a sequel unless it follows something.
Are you looking for games that spawned a sequel, but never had a prequel made? Or are you just looking for games with 2 in the title that aren't sequels? In that case I add Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo to the list.

I thought Pepper's prequel was for another system. Hmmm.
I remember way back when thinking that Thunder Force II had no prequel, until the age of the internet came about and research showed otherwise.

I can think of several games where a sequel was released for home consoles while the original stayed in arcades (or possibly in Japan or something) but no games spring to mind that started out life as a part 2.
On a side note... Jackass DVD Volume 1 has been released. Volumes 2 and 3 came out years ago. Volume 2 even had a sticker that said there was no Volume 1. Bizarre I say.

I've only heard of Pepper II, not a Pepper at all.
And Stonic is right, Datasoft released a Goonies licensed game for home machines in 1985. Perhaps why the other one is called Goonies 2.
The only game I can think of with a numbered suggested sequel in the title is Colossus Chess 2.0 for the C64. There is no Colossus Chess 1 afaik. Going further than that, the next one was CC 4.0, there was no CC 3.0!

It's called Goonies 2 because Konami also already released a game called the Goonies for the Famicom, Playchoice 10, and MSX. It's a completely different game than the Datasoft one.

Madden 2005 is based on the 2004 season (with that season's Super Bowl being played in Feb '05). It's always been "a year ahead," as most players get the game way before the year ends.
But to answer the original Q, don't forget about Power Punch II for the NES. Yeah, yeah, I know it was supposed to be the sequel to Tyson's Punch-Out, but that really didn't pan out. Obviously, there's no Power Punch I.

Good call, that's true. The working title was Mike Tyson's Intergalactic Power-Punch, to try to cash in on Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. But after they dropped Tyson, they called it Power-Punch 2, to...cash in on Punch-Out and make themselves out to be a sequel, I guess.

Interesting article. I never knew they planned a Punch-Out!! sequel before Super Punch-Out!!. I always loved Punch-Out!!, but strangely I never even heard of Power Punch II. Although from what the article says, the game isn't very good, which is probably why. What a shame...
I could never understand Pepper II, because there was definitely no Pepper I, unless Exidy developed it but never released it.
You can also add the Sprint 2 arcade game (1976, Kee Games) to the list. Although the "2" indictates that the game is 2-player rather than it being a sequel. Sprint 4 and Sprint 8 followed in 1977. Afterward, Atari eventually did release a Sprint 1 in 1978. They later released the true sequels Super Sprint and Championship Sprint.

classicgaming: "...they gave it the confusing title of Power Punch II (there actually is no Power Punch part one)."
Interesting I was playing this game not so far ago and was about to mention it.. But I beg to differ with the article, there actually is a Power Punch part one, better known as Mike's Tyson Intergalactic Power Punch!
digitalpress online rarity guide: "The original version of Power Punch II, shown at the 1991 CES. The game is the same, but the cut scenes are all different and use Tyson’s real name. There’s also different sound effects and a new title screen."
In my opinion Intergalactic Power Punch would have been a better name for it..

Here's what I found on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_4);
The actual reasons are mainly two and have been given by Al Lowe at separate points:
* Sierra began work on a multiplayer installment of Leisure Suit Larry that was to be played out over The Sierra Network. This failed due largely to technical reasons, and the planned multiplayer Larry game was shelved.
* The ending of Larry 3 was very definite and somehow metafictional (showing Larry and Patti coming to the Sierra studios and making games based on their adventures, living happily in a mountain cabin in Coarsegold). This completed a relatively cohesive trilogy with no sequel planned and Al Lowe was in a dead end because he couldn't find a way to start it since the scenario had completed a story arc.
Hmmmm....
Shinobi III never had any Shinobi II.
There was a Shinobi II (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinobi_II:_The_Silent_Fury) for Game Gear.
I'm actually surprised that Shinobi III wasn't named higher, there were more than 3 games made already, even if you just consider the Sega Master System and Genesis. Unless they just named it for the third Genesis game, though that doesn't really make sense.

Ace Combat 2 kind of counts, as there was no Ace Combat. There was an Air Combat, but not Ace Combat.
Afterburner II - Was the original ever even released?
Yes, and the two games are essentially identical. Afterburner "II" just has throttle control, while the original moved at a constant speed.
Off-topic but I hate it when a series has a main installment without a number, and then they go back to using numbers and pretend the intervening games don't exist. Contra 4 (shouldn't Hard Corps be considered Contra 4?), Resident Evil 4 (Code Veronica anyone?), Shinobi III (ugh), Tenchu IV, etc.

Also Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures, there were already sequels to Pac-Man before. This one doesn't even play the same, I feel it really didn't need the "2" in the title. Should have been another spinoff game with a different title.

I remember back when FF7 first came out. I was already a fan of the series and RPGs in general solely because of the first FF(Dragon Warrior was my first RPG but the first FF just made me want mostly RPG games.)
Now why am I mentioning FF7? I'm not sure if people remember when the game was first released and most people actually thought it was the first game in the series and then with the release of FF1-6 being ported to the PSX, alot of people actually said that those games "copied" stuff from FF7. Or when FF9 came out, as an RPG fan I'd talk to someone out RPGs and ask them what their favorites were, only for the reply of FF789 exactly like that.
That's actually what this thread reminded me of. I'm not saying anyone here is stupid or anything for not knowing prequels that were released, because I'll admit I never knew there was an original Goonies game and thought it was a sequel due to the movie release as well. So the point I'm really getting to is that there were a ton of people that were unknowledgeable to the fact that FF7 wasn't the first one, even when the others were remade/ported.

Ace Combat was the JPN release before it was changed to Air Combat upon US localization. Then Namco decided to stick with the 'Ace' portion, confusing everyone in the process. Kind of how 'Dragon Warrior' magically changed to the JPN title 'Dragon Quest' when Square-Enix thought that nobody was looking!

There's the original Code Veronica or Code Veronica X for the PS2, then there's Survivor 2: Code Veronica. Never played it, but I've heard Survivor 2: Code Veronica is just as bad as the original.
The RE series has had many more than four games as well. Let's not forget all the mobile games, the pathetic GBC game, the survivor games, Code Veronica, and the Outbreak series before Resident Evil 4 was released. I'd actually consider all of those but Code Veronica a spinoff.
If you ask me though, Outbreak and Outbreak 2 are also better than every game in the series other than Resident Evil 2. I don't own a PS2 harddrive and never have, so I can only hope that Sony finally patches those two games to allow saving on the harddrive so I can play these games only 3-5 seconds per room(12-15 seconds per room sucks no matter how fun the game is.)

In this vein, the title screen (but not the cartridge label or packaging) of Nightshade (NES) proclaimed it to be "Part 1," although it may not have been meant to have been taken seriously.

Wait, so you didn't like the original RE: CV on the Dreamcast? At the time, I thought it was the best RE, although part 4 far eclipsed it.
You're missing what I said.
Code Veronica/Code Veronica X is a good game. I've never played Survivor: Code Veronica, but it's a shooting game like the first Survivor which was a terrible game.
So Code Veronica does not suck, but Survivor: Code Veronica most likely does, as to what it said on my last post.
How'd this thread hit three pages with no mention of Jurassic Boy 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpXRs-2Bc_Q)? Granted, the box says "Jurassic Boy" but the title screen pitches it as the sequel to a game that never was.
You mean besides Strip Fighter II and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo?
Well, I'm talking games that had a US release.
