This format applies to the introduction of video game works, the platforms in which they run include, but are not limited to: game consoles (including both retail and home consoles), mobile phones, and (or) personal computers or other electronic devices.
If the game is the derivative product of a comic, an animation or a novel, and no separate article has been created for that game, then this template is not recommended. However, you can use this template in the "Derivative works" subsection of the article. The main article should be created primarily from the original, following the Moegirlpedia policies, use templates such as {{Comic Infobox}}.
On the definition of a new game:
- A remake of a particular work, or an enhanced remaster, should be considered a new game.
- A deeply integrated collection of works from a particular series (unbundled package), should be considered a new game.
- A DLC, expansion pack, TU or others that cannot be run independently from the work itself should not be considered new games.
- A bundle for a certain work (Be it a Trilogy, Gold Edition, or Complete Edition, etc.) should not be considered a new game.
