Many video games are not always the same - they can differ wildly across different versions, be it regionally, across different formats, or through later releases where a game has received some changes from an earlier release. NEC Retro aims to compare differences between multiple versions of a game where applicable, categorising the types of comparisons into the following sections:
*'''Version comparisons:''' Differences across the same game released for multiple platforms (e.g. [[PC-9801]] vs. [[PC Engine]]), even with non-NEC platforms such as the {{SegaLink|Super NES}}, {{SegaLink|PlayStation}} and {{SegaLink|Mega Drive}} (non-NEC version screenshots should be uploaded to [[cdn:Main Page|Retro CDN]]).
*'''Localisation comparisons:''' Differences across regional releases (e.g. Japanese vs. Western), as games can be subject to many changes in localisation such as to add/remove cultural references.
*'''Revision comparisons:''' Changes may be made to a game that is rereleased in a later print run and/or under a budget label (e.g. Rev 00 vs 01).
*'''Game comparisons:''' These are usually the case for games that are either a rebranding of another game (e.g. ''{{SegaLink|Wonder Boy in Monster World}}'' vs. ''[[The Dynastic Hero]]''), the game combines content from other games or, in the case of [[:Category:Unlicensed games|unlicensed games]], stolen assets from official games.

In the case of [[:Category:Prototypes|prototype builds]], the purpose of comparison sub-pages is to compare the prototypes to the final builds, showing what may have been added, removed or changed during a game's development.
