People who imported from Germany or german residents, little question for you. I am sorry in advance if it isn't really right thread to ask.

Does USK (infamous sticker that covers like half of boxart) marked games always have English inside (voice\subs\interface)? I tried to ask directly in Nintendo Germany, but they seems refused to answer and sent me to my local distributor, which is incredebly crappy price and availability wise, whilist amazon.de is incredibly convinient for me. So far interesed in The Last Story and Skyward Sword.
Thanks!

Don't most of all games released in Europe have English options? I don't think there are games released in only German for example - they usually have the five main languages as options no matter which country in Europe you buy from (English, German, Italian, French, Spanish). Someone else can probably confirm though - SirLink?

But I can definitely confirm the USK logo'd Skyward Sword has English options, since that was the version released in the UK too. So it has to be the same for every European game.

Thank you Azuardo! Would be nice to have some "evidence" from other members.
Skyward Sword @ Amazon.de says

So as many other.

Regarding Zavvi. The place seems to have incredible prices, but somehow I mostly bumping into much of hate when looking for opinions on this store. Are they that bad? I've made an order to check myself. Some games shipped next day and one marked 'Awaiting Stock Pick Est: 14/03/2012' gosh.

( Edited 06.02.2012 17:42 by gwarlek )

Hmm, maybe there are some localised games with no English options then. SirLink buys from Amazon.de, so hopefully he can help when he sees this.

Haven't had problems with Zavvi myself, but I too have read bad reports from others about them. You live in the UK? They seem to ship fast to me in the UK and definitely have good prices. Some games do take a while to come in stock again, but that depends on the game and happens with plenty of sites.

Thats the problem mate. I live in the country where prices doesn't make any sense. Not only prices though. ^_^
Russia.

If I want collectors edition or something relatively rare - I have to import. While it wasn't big problem for region free PS3, since Wii purchase I run into all kinds of trouble getting fresh stuff.

Guess I will stop spoiling the thread and just PM Mr. Awesome Reviews directly.

I think it's something that differs from game to game, so you can never say for sure for every game. Many German Wii games in my collection have that "5-in-1" logo on the box, meaning they come in English, German, Italian, French, Spanish. Others though, like my German copy of Rune Factory Frontier which I just checked, don't have that logo but I'm still playing it completely in English. It's pretty stupid how it's sometimes not clearly stated on the back of the boxes.

Those language descriptions on Amazon.de are usually a load of BS. I've had plenty of games, like Skyward Sword or Monster Hunter Tri, where it said only German but they were playable in English anyway. Games published by Nintendo always had all 5 languages included for me so far though, so I'd expect it to be the same case for The Last Story, as it was for Xenoblade.
