Other Languages

Do we offer any of the games in other languages? Just curious if any attempt has been made to create sets in say Japanese or Spanish that may open up the market in those countries and possibly add contacts which may lead to future signings of wrestlers from those countries and others.  Just random ideas swirling around in my head about the game as I try to go to sleep lol.

the games are not offered in any other languages, however when it comes to signing foreign wrestlers I have the official release form in Spanish and Japanese and have used both of those versions to make signings for the game

As a language teacher (Spanish and German), I have thought about in the past what it would be like to make any of the FG products in other languages. When I've watched WWE translated into Spanish, the commentators sometimes use Spanish descriptions to describe moves and sometimes keep the English names. I know back when John Cena still called the Attitude Adjustment the F.U., the Spanish announcers would say the letters but with the Spanish pronunciation. However, those letters don't mean the same thing in Spanish.

In Japanese wrestling, you often hear English names used like "suplex" or "DDT."

My point is, I wonder how much would change if we were able to do the game in other languages. Great question though, bear805!
