Title: How many games came with French instruction manuals?
Post by: jelloslug on 05/22/2014, 01:58 PM
I recently received a copy of Power Golf in a game lot that included a French instruction manual as well as the English one.  How many of the games had French manuals also?

Quote from: Nulltard on 05/22/2014, 02:46 PMI'd wager all of them that were released in canada?  I've some boxes that have french and english on the back.

To answer your question truthfully, though:  I have no effin' clue, but am curious as to the answer as well.
I know that even Magical Chase had a French manual so I would guess that you are correct in saying that every game released in Canuakastan had a French manual.  They are hardly ever mentioned though and I would have thought the collection perfectionists would have latched on to that some time ago.

All games, no matter the platform, that were released in Canada must (by law) include a French copy of the manual.

There are lists around here of which games were not released in Canada. It's basically all the third party stuff (I believe that Taito's non-WD games were brought over by TTi.

Sidearms
Parasol Stars
Cadash
Sinistron
Tricky Kick

Exile
CF2
Exile WP
Vasteel

If folks have French language manuals, I would love to include scans of them at archives.tg-16.com

I have only 1-3? French boxes/manuals, myself.

If I remember correctly, my Legend of Hero Tonma has a French Manual.


Edit:  It does!  And I have it!


esteban, I just e-mailed you the scans.  Let me know if they will/won't work for you.
