I just got my deluxe edition from the ebgames next to my place in Montréal.
There was no French manual. Technically it would be going against the new law, but I guess Montreal is special because Ubisoft and EA are big here.

But that explains why some stores are not selling it, especially in Quebec City. No French Manual = illegal to sell I guess.

I'm a little surprised they didn't take the time to make a French translation; it's like 20 little pages with pictures.

I'm kind of happy that some stores are going against the law. I mean it's a really stupid law...

So yeah that explains why it's not available at most stores.

 

Selon la Charte québécoise de la langue française, tout produit vendu au Québec doit obligatoirement être présenté dans un emballage « où le français figure de manière équivalente » à l’anglais ou aux autres langues. La même règle vaut pour les documents qui accompagnent les produits, leurs modes d’emploi et leurs certificats de garantie.

 

Mais généralement certaine exception sont toléré, tel qu'un boitier edition limite tant que le boitier normal lui est bilingue (jimagine que l'édition normal a le livre en francais sinon il y vraiment un probleme avec atlus). Aussi tous les appareils sur lequel est écris directement du texte (laveuse/secheuse, telephone, television etc) l'englais seulement est toléré.

I think the deluxe edition would have the French manual if it existed. The deluxe edition is the regular game plus some extra stuff all packed in a nice casing.

I bought the special edition of Street Fighter 4 back then and the French manual was included.

It would be nice if someone from Quebec who bought the regular edition can confirm if there are 1 or 2 manuals. It would most probably confirm why some stores don’t have it.

I just think Atlus forgot about it or just didn’t do it.
