scalpel Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) I juste received 5 games I bought recently to a guy who found these games to the someone's house (he doesn't have more information to give me...). There are NIB and 4 of them have french instruction in the back. FYI, these games were not imported (in my knowledges) in France (may be in Europe ?) in 80's and I'm very surprised to see some French instructions for these games. It means these games were imported and a company (RCA Jeux Video for Worm Whooper) decided to translate the instruction. If you have more information and comment, don't hesitate Edited October 2, 2014 by scalpel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpel Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Looks store made to follow the law, cool though. You mean because it was translate in French ? Before 1994, the law was cool with international languages in France. Since 1994, you have to translate in French if you want to sell in France.

freewheel Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I've seen this exact thing with the Australian PAL 2600 games, that were imported to Germany. Everything in English except for a hand-typed instruction sheet in German. Never ran into it for INTV before, but that's because I've never had even a sniff of overseas INTV stuff. Very cool find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool find. <sarc> Some of them don't use deodorant, or observe the same hygienic customs as others, so it may not always be a pleasing experience. </sarc> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
