 ====== Game Console Revisions Overview ======
-===== Summary =====
 This dictation comes in two parts, with the first being the proper dictation, in which I write about the phenomena of revisions in video game consoles, and how they can impact the viability of EOPs. After this part, comes the part in which I list every console and it’s revisions, what’s different between the two, and my personal suggestions on which is best overall (with EOPs in mind, but this overlaps heavily with general user appeal), which is likely the cheapest, and which is the most reliable. This section has been spread across the respective pages for their consoles, and will be available here.

 ===== Consoles Documented =====
-=== Home Game Consoles ===
+If a console is not listed here, it doesn't have any extant versions or revisions. The term “revision” is used for internal changes that have no perceptible exterior difference to the user, while the term “version” is used for external changes of relative significance, such as a redesign or remodel.
