I guess a sligthly larger delay between news entries would be nice
yeah, but IMHO it's not that bad now. I don't think the "old" item is
that easily missed, since after all it's right below the other one and
of course we do have both topics sticky in our forums (of course not
everyone might look into our forums ;-).

If we really wanted to make it nearly impossible to miss the
announcement of both games I too think, that merging the two posts
would be best. I would have no real problem with the current situation
though. I guess in the future it would be nicer to have some talks
about timing on -devel beforehand when people want to announce their
games as supported to avoid such things :-).
