    Wtf?! You buy any appliance in the EU and you get a STACK of instruction manuals, warranties etc. in all kinds of different languages. And american suppliers can’t be arsed to supply just ONE additional language?!

      Video games too.
      That’s the reason why the PlayStation mini console from 2018 was loaded with EU versions of the games.

      The traditional release cycle of video games was 60Hz Japan-language-only followed by 60Hz English translation plus some bugfixes for the US market and the finally a 50Hz multi-language conversion with even more bugfixes for the EU market.
