Removing this, since being unofficial is kind of the definition of a spiritual successor. If it were official, then it would just be a plain ol' successor


* ''Magazine/NintendoPower'' supposedly got one after its demise in the form of ''Magazine/NintendoForce''. However, this is a subversion since the latter magazine is not officially licensed, authorized, sanctioned by, or otherwise affiliated with Nintendo themselves.

** ''Ride/RiversOfLight'' at Disney's Animal Kingdom is one to the Epcot Millennium Celebration shows ''Illuminations: Reflections of Earth'' and ''Tapestry of Nations'', carrying on Illuminations's music driven and abstract style of storytelling with a focus on the natural world, while mirroring Tapestry's Sage of Time/Dreamseekers and festival structure with the elemental shamans and lantern festival pageant structure.

** One more for Oracle: the acquisition of Sun also gave them access to the [=MySQL=] database engine, which is a direct competition to their flagship product. They proceeded to cripple [=MySQL=] so that it cannot fairly compete. The community responded by forking the last Sun-maintained version of [=MySQL=] into [=MariaDB=].

** Another Oracle example was the OpenSolaris operating system, which was basically a free community-supported version of the paid Solaris OS. Shortly after buying over Sun and killing OpenOffice, Oracle also gave the finger to the OpenSolaris community by shutting down access to the source code and putting out a press release that barely hides their greed, claiming that OpenSolaris will be migrated to a crippled ''Solaris Express'', while those who want a fully functional version will have to pay for the full Solaris OS. While the OpenSolaris community tried to be friendly with Oracle, that dick move by Oracle caused the community to fork the last version of OpenSolaris into ''illumos''.

** Raspberry Pi has become incredibly popular with the retro-gaming scene as a cheap, dedicated hardware for emulation, and several projects like [[https://retropie.org.uk/ Retropie]] and [[https://www.recalbox.com/ Recalbox]] have popped up that can emulate pretty much any system made before 1996 that you can throw at them. Ironically, one of the few machines of these projects can't seem to emulate properly is the none other than the BBC Micro!

* Members of the Tea Party movement consider themselves the spiritual successors to the Founding Fathers and their movement a spiritual successor to UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution. Critics believe that they more accurately derive from earlier populist movements with appeals to "nativism" and tradition and see the John Birch society, the Know-Nothing and America First movements as more legitimate precursors.

Critics believe that they more accurately derive from earlier populist movements with appeals to "nativism" and tradition and see the John Birch society, the Know-Nothing and America First movements as more legitimate precursors. Said critics also argue that the Tea Party's stance on "protecting Christian values" grossly contradicts the stance of the Founding Fathers, many of whom were either atheists or agnostics and were avoiding a Christian theocracy in England, thus believing that American citizens should be free to choose their own religion.

** Windows itself in whole seemed to be a greatly improved successor to the {{UsefulNotes/MSX}} video gaming computer system. While MSX was [[GermansLoveDavidHasselHoff popular in Japan, some few European and South American countries]], [[NoExportForYou it never reached North America]]. At that time, Windows was also in development when MSX was released. Although MSX was not a global standard like it was intended, Windows become a spiritual successor to MSX and enjoyed much wider global success. While MS-DOS and Windows were designed for the business market, they became a de facto standard for home computers in the late '80s and early '90s, taking the role that MSX did in the mid '80s.
