Template:Vgrelease/doc

This template is used in conjunction with Infobox video game to summarize release date information for computer or video game articles.

Syntax
 

NA/EU: December 5, 2001 '''.
 * region: Non-wikilinked region name. See below for regions guide.
 * It is also possible to combine multiple regions in this parameter, for release dates which are the same between several regions -- e.g.  EU/NA , however it uses a | instead of = between the region and the date, like this: '''


 * date: Release date in Month DD, YYYY format. Example: November 12, 2011

Regions
The following parameters may be specified to display release dates for multiple regions in a single call. The order cannot be changed, so if the order is out of chronological order, seperate calls have to be created.
 * JP=date: Japanese region release
 * NA=date: North American region release
 * EU=date: European region release
 * AUS=date: Australasian (Australia and New Zealand) release
 * WW=date: World-wide release (in contrast to the International version, this is where the title is available for multiple regions simultaneously, occurs often for digitally distributed titles)
 * INT=date: International version release (this is not a synonym for World-wide)

Regional release dates should be listed in chronological order, which the editor has to use separate calls for if they do not follow the order above.

Examples
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker - Standard

PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure - The last call is separated to maintain chronological order.
