dilinger Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Hi, Sorry to bother you with this question, but I have a Cybermorph boxed edition which contains also a manual in Japanese. I've found this curious, do all boxed editions came with it too? (I do not think so but I prefer to ask). Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serblander Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I don't think so. I bought a New/Sealed Cybermorph in mid 2000's to aid in a complete CIB collection. There was only the English manual. I bought it from the States. To my knowledge only some games that were sold in Japan came with additional Japanese manuals for the Japanese market. I'm still trying to get some of these Japanese manuals. Will have to have a better look next time i go to Japan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilinger Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) I give you a couple of screenshots of this manual. It has some less pages than the English one, otherwise the both manuals describe the game the same way.

Rick Dangerous Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I thought all Jaguar manuals were printed in like 20 languages; which is why they are so ridiculously fat. Was Japanese not one of those included then? Seems odd to include so many languages just to print manuals for one other language... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Innit Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Just this evening, I noticed that I have these two Japanese manuals. Never really noticed them before. I'm selling off some Jaguar games and wondered if anybody needs any scans of these before they get sold with their games. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFG 9000 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I'm glad this got bumped, because I had no idea there were Japanese variants. Were the boxes any different, or just the manuals? And is it safe to assume the games themselves were identical? The thread that walter_J64bit linked to above, http://atariage.com/forums/topic/55839-japanese-jaguars/?hl=%2Bjapanese+%2Bdoom&do=findComment&comment=679877, has another link to a Japanese Jaguar box scan, but that link is 13 years old and is shockingly broken.

I'm selling off some Jaguar games and wondered if anybody needs any scans of these before they get sold with their games. Really fascinating, I've never seen any of these Japanese manuals. So there's Cybermorph, AVP, Club Drive and Trevor McFur at very least in Japanese. Any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+madman Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I wonder if the AvP pack-in set sold in Japan contained a Japanese manual for that game. Edit: D'oh! Old post above mentions this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way to identify if you got a Japanese Jag game you have to open the box and look for the Japanese manual, the Japanese Doom I've got there's nothing on the box to identify its Japanese that goes the same for the cart too. I'll re-post the pic this week so you can see! Edited January 30, 2018 by walter_J64bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The multi language ones are usually for europe. seeing as European countries are all PAL region it means they can knock up one version of the game and sell it in every european coubtry. With Japanese its NTSC so they have to maje a different version anyway so would not make sense to use all that paper for loads of european languages.
