Question about games released in canada?

[geralds]

Old game from nes or before to games now day on wii ps3 and 360 do they get released in french. I know i am sure they get the pal french copy but I'm talking about a Canadian french ntsc copy. I know factory sealed games are opened up when they go to Canada and they are from what i was told by supposed to put a french manual in the game and then reseal the game. My question is are they in french and someone was telling me of a bilingual Kirby adventure game he has being in french and English so does that mean if they have a french copy there are only bilingual? Anyone who actually no more info on Canadian released games people do share. I do believe there has to be or the law making them put french manuals is contradicting but as i am not from Canada i have no idea.

There is a law, it must be in french (manual). If there is a french version (france release) then they cannot sell the english release, they must sell the french one.

French people laugh how Quebecois think they are french.

Anyway, there's one or two company that translates to CANADIEN french as there are words in the french version that is obscene in the canadian french language.

Usually it is the normal package with extra book inside and a sticker on the outside.

For the games which have the french language, it's a language select menu in the game, just like in europe.

Most Canadian releases either have both languages on the back cover and either a bilingual single manual, or 2 individual manuals.

Some Canadian releases have only English on the case itself, but have a French manual shrink-wrapped to the back, with a bilingual version of the back cover.

My copy of RE4 for Wii came as the latter, and the French manual was the size of the case, not the English manual, so it wouldn't fit inside the case, and I ended up throwing it out.

The reality is that no one uses French outside of Quebec in Canada pretty much. Usually they just plaster a sticker over the regular releases to indicate it is French friendly, and include a French manual (usually just wrapped around the box or something) which most people just throw out anyways.

At least thats what I experienced. Actually, although French is an Official language in Canada I find that outside of Quebec (Which uses unfair language laws to keep other languages from taking over), I found there are bigger language minorities than French spoken across Canada. One big one that comes to mind is Chinese.
