I like Lassarina's idea of "Primary canon" and "extensions". Except when they're hair extensions.
Also I don't know anything about FFXII tactics and little to nothing about RW. So I'm not qualified to judge. Except from what I gather, RW is a sequel, so I think of it like X-2 and AC.
When the sequel games first came out, I'd put the sequels in a separate category for all those folks who haven't played them or are of two minds about whether they fit. As time goes on and less is being written for older fandoms, I say fuse 'em, and just indicate in summary or characters whether it's "classic" mode (the original game) or "extended edition".
I've gotten more used to X2 as an extension of FFX. Originally I might've viewed them as separate fandoms.
