Most franchises with Numbered Sequels are like this: The first ever made has a title and the sequels just add numbers and/or subtitles in front of the title, like this: "Title", "Title 2", "Title 3", and if it's a prequel, sometimes it's "Title 0".
But an unusual case is when the first one is literally numbered the first, like "Title 1", or "Title One", or "Title I", or "Title: Part 1/One/I" or "Title: The First"; obviously, this is a sign that sequels are planned, or in development or even ready, thus avoiding Sequelitis.
And of course, the worst part of this trope is when a sequel is never made and the first one remains as the only one.
Sometimes we're talking about a work Divided for Publication; if it has a "Part 1/One/I" in the title because they want to divide a single story in parts to make it easier to follow or fit in the time schedule, keep that clear. There are also cases of when the title didn't have it originally, and then it was added as a Retronym; when adding examples, keep clear which titles were always called like this and which ones were renamed after the fact.
A subtrope of Title by Number. See also The Original Series.
It's a common practice in Fan Nicknames, but they don't count here.

The Dream Theater song "Metropolis, Part 1: The Miracle and the Sleeper" was one of these, as they added the "Part 1" to the title as a joke, having no intention of making a part 2. Later on they created an entire album to serve as a sequel.

Half-Life 2: Episode One is an unusual example. It was the direct follow-up to the original Half-Life 2 and was intended to be the first in a series of episodic sequels. Half-Life 2: Episode Two was later made, but Half-Life 2: Episode Three however...
The first Half-Life is available in a bundle together with Blue Shift, Opposing Force and Team Fortress Classic as Half-Life 1 Anthology. Counter-Strike has a similar bundle.

The original Shenmue was subtitled in Japan Issh�: Yokosuka, or "Chapter 1: Yokosuka". Sega's original plan was to sell the series as serialized installments, each set in a key location in the game's story, but this was abandoned in favor of having the sequels span several locations (hence why the second game was titled Shenmue II and not Shenmue Chapter 2).

The Infamous series has a sly case of this: Infamous: First Light is a stand-alone expansion to Infamous: Second Son that serves as a prequel to the events of said game (to make it clear: First and Second, geddit?). Second Son itself was the third game in the series, titled as such since it featured the first new protagonist.

The first installment of the Dragon Slayer series, originally developed by Nihon Falcom and released for the NEC PC-8801 in 1984, was ported to the Game Boy in 1990 by toy maker Epoch under the title of Dragon Slayer I. Epoch had previously ported Dragon Slayer to their failed Super Cassette Vision console in 1986 in notably one of the first game cartridges to use battery-backed saves, but the Game Boy port came out long after some of the game's sequels (namely Faxanadu, Romancia and Legacy of the Wizard on the Famicom/NES and Sorcerian on the Mega Drive) had been ported to other consoles.

Inverted with Mortal Kombat 1, which is the 12th game in the Mortal Kombat series, titled as such because it's a Continuity Reboot caused by a Cosmic Retcon. The actual first game is titled just Mortal Kombat... which has also been given an official alternate title of "Mortal Kombat 1" by Warner Bros. themselves on GOG.com, even after the reveal of Mortal Kombat 1. These days, fans are forced to refer to the first game by nicknames along the lines of "the original Mortal Kombat."

Pokémon: The First Movie, the first one of a series of over 20 movies and still counting. Notably, it did not have the "First" in its title in Japanese (or most other languages); the decision to include this naming convention in the (informal) North American title was a safe one, though, since a second movie had been released in Japan months before the first one came to North America, a third one was already in development, and the Pokémon franchise was in the height of its popularity, so it was safe to count on the sequels coming to North America as well. Either way, the proper English title was Mewtwo Strikes Back (a direct translation of the Japanese title Mewtwo's Counterattack) which means the whole issue just comes down to the dubbers (not the creators) adding an unnecessary "First Movie" tag to the title.

Futurama has "Anthology of Interest 1" in season 2 in anticipation of yearly instalments; the series only got to 2 (in season 3 out of the original 4-season run). (The general idea of an annual triplet of non-canonical stories like the original A.O.I.s came back in the four Comedy Central half-seasons, almost always before a hiatus, but didn't use the same title scheme or framing device.)

The Legend of Zelda was originally released in Japan for Famicom's Disk System add-on in 1986. When the game was re-released as a standard Famicom cartridge in 1993, it was retitled Zelda no Densetsu 1. The game already called itself "Legend of Zelda 1" at the end of the second quest, so this wasn't a major stretch.

Standard procedure on TV Tropes when a series that doesn't qualify for the Franchise namespace shares a name with its first installment is to trope the series at "Medium.WorkName" and the first installment at "Medium.WorkName1". The "1" on the latter page is usually removed via the custom title system, but sometimes nobody bothers.note In the case of two works with the same name, some other disambiguation is used instead, often the release year.

Madou Monogatari 1-2-3 for the MSX2 and PC-98. This was actually the original release of both, Madou Monogatari 1 and 3, since a prototype version of 2 was released earlier as a bonus in a special Christmas-themed issue of Compile's Disk Station magazine. However, Madou Monogatari 1 was the only that had a stand-alone port on all three of the 16-bit consoles (Super Famicom, Mega Drive and PC Engine) in Japan.

R-Type I for the PC Engine was actually just the first half of the R-Type divided into a single HuCard, with the later R-Type II on the PC Engine (not to be confused for a port of the actual R-Type II arcade game) containing the latter half. Both halves were later released as a single larger capacity HuCard for the U.S. market and the real R-Type II would be ported to the Super NES instead as Super R-Type.

History of the World Part I: One example of when a sequel was never made; a sequel is even teased at the end, but it's okay since it was only a joke and the producers never intended to make a sequel anyway. Until it was eventually announced in 2021 that a sequel series, History of the World Part II, would be made for Hulu.

Jak X has legacy skins for Jak from the preceding Jak and Daxter games, wherein the Jak II and Jak 3 versions of him are named after the games they appear. So what did they call the skin from the first game, Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy? "Jak One". This establishes a Running Gag where the main Jak games are all numbered differently, using a word, a Roman numeral and an Arabic number.

Family Guy:
"Viewer Mail #1," which was the last episode before it was cancelled the first time. It would be ten years before there was a "Viewer Mail #2."
This trope as it pertains to World War I was spoofed in the episode "High School English", in which a character from the 1920s anachronistically refers to World War I as such (before World War II, it was just called "The Great War".)

Lagaf': Les Aventures de Moktar - Vol 1: La Zoubida, better known as Titus the Fox. A little explanation: Lagaf' is a French comedian who became a One-Hit Wonder with his song La Zoubida, starring the titular girl and a guy named Moktar. Titus Software made a game about the song expecting Lagaf' to continue Moktar's story, but the man abandoned musical comedy so a "Vol. 2" was never made.

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning (2023) once had Part One in its title. The studio then decided to drop the "Deck Reckoning: Part Two" subtitle from the sequel after Part One underperformed at the box office, and dropped "Part One" from the film on streaming and VOD.

The original Final Fight was ported to the Game Boy Advance as Final Fight One. Neither of the two SNES sequels was made available on the GBA.
