My analogy was that the original Ocean's Eleven ended with the group succeeding, and then having Koga imagine that the modern version ended with the group failing. That is a significant difference, and it is one that would make a retelling impossible since that is not what happened in the original.
Gotta bring back And Then There Were None, then. Different versions of it have drastically different outcomes, yet they are still retellings of the same story, even the ones with a different ending than the original.

I have proven that Zero Mission is not a remake though.
Well, clearly you haven't, otherwise there wouldn't be so much debate. A solid, complete proof cannot be argued with, so the very presence of so many other arguments that you have to deal with by definition means that your proof was not solid or complete.

This is why I have also proven that Super Metroid cannot take place unless Metroid 1 took place.
You didn't have to prove that; everyone already knew that.

Right, and I am saying that the more advanced system is capable of preserving the original structure, or at least fitting the structure of another advanced game that takes place at a later time.
I can see where you're coming from with this, but I really don't think you see where I was coming from, or that you ever will. Suffice it to say I disagree.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
