In all seriousness I am a big collector of these and I am documenting (read: scanning) these for a website project I have in the works.

PM incoming.

I will gladly host French manuals.

I have some stuff (from North America and sondipeg stuff from France).

SO, ACTUALLY, we need to distinguish between the officially produced French manuals for Canada vs. French manuals* accompanying imported Japanese PCE games  (we may have to ask our French brothers for assistance, since few folks in US buy stuff from EBay.la.france

*folded sheet of paper

Esteban, aren't the sodipeng "manuals" just stickers on the PCE manuals or just a photocopy insert sheet?

As far as I know, the NTSC games never really made it to France BITD, so all the French text versions were the officially produced versions for Ottawa.  Everybody else got Engrish.

I do collect the Kanuck style though, and see my PM was too late.  Bummer.  Thanks for the heads up punkic!

Sodipeng:

I have a type-written, double-sided page, photocopy, folded into quarters for a few games.

It was made with a "DIY" fanzine spirit and that makes it kinda fun.

I don't have much experience with the Sodipeng inserts.

I'll scan one and share it if I can find one this weekend.

The only Sodipeng insert I have is for 1941.  It's a single page typed leaflet (if I remember correctly) similar to some of the inserts for PCE titles.

I'll scan 'em, don't worry.  I have several others as well.  I want your scans too, I've been meaning to PM you since I saw your post (and JelloSlug as well) but I've had other things on my plate.  I'm glad to see I'm not the only person interested in getting this stuff documented though!

And infinite props to Sparky for the incredible hookup.
