Split <console> into <console> and <media>
Some "consoles" such as Steam and XBLA are rather vague now, since Steam is available for three OSes (Windows, Mac, Linux), XBLA is available on two consoles (360, Xbone), and PSN is available for four (PS3, PS4, PSP, PSVita). In addition, "PC" should be split into individual operating systems.
This should be split into something like the following:
Old method: (using Sonic Generations as an example)
{{release|Steam|EU|2011-11-03}}
{{release|PC|EU|2011-11-25}}
New method:
{{release|Win|Steam|EU|2011-11-03}}
{{release|Win|Disc|EU|2011-11-25}}
Note that this example splits <console> in-place, so it will break all existing {{release}} uses until they're updated. ---GerbilSoft (talk) 13:37, 6 August 2015 (CDT)
Also: "Disc", or "CD", "DVD", "BD"? I know that the Windows port of Sonic Riders was available in two versions: the original two-CD release, and a later DVD release. ---GerbilSoft (talk) 13:39, 6 August 2015 (CDT)
