My Big Sister has a different background and a story which in places deviates from that of My Big Sister: Remastered. Due to the alterations introduced in the latter, the original version of this game is considered non-canon. When playing the franchise as a series, it is recommended to start with Red Bow and play the remaster instead. [2]
