Title: How many games came with French instruction manuals?
Post by: jelloslug on May 22, 2014, 06:58:06 AM: 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?

I'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.

Post by: Black Tiger on May 22, 2014, 08:51:24 AM: 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
