[game_preservation] Game Database question

[Jan Baart]

Hello Sean,

edition is indeed the term I currently use in my design for the next 
layer under games and ports. I'm just unsure if these fit in right there 
or not. The problem with edition is that is also used for things like 
Limited Editions which contain the same game but additional 
digital/physical content, usually.
