On JFA, however, I can choose between English/French/German.
I guess it varies.
And as far I know, you would be able to paly the European version.

Now we have all the French character names.

I think it's a lot easier to appreciate something when it's written in another language. Plus, I do only have a pretty limited knowledge of French. I guess the lyrics were just supposed to be really cheesy.
Yeah... When I couldn't understand the lyrics of a song, I liked it lot...
But when I finally was able to understand them... well, I was, like, "WTF?".

Those lyrics don't even fit the notes. They did so good on the English version. :\
They generally do, but I admit that they sometimes don't... The main problem comes from the fact that French words often have more syllables.
Anyway, here is how I "feel" the lyrics... There are just text, so you won't have to listen to me singing.

I a bit messed up on the end, and sometimes the lyrics go over the "voice", but otherwise I think it's okay.
Note: Surprise ending!

Uh... No. There are three European version of AA4: English only, French and German, and Italian and Spanish... Looks like they change the language "group" on every new AA...
Anyway, the NDS isn't localized, which mean you can play any game of any continent on any continent... At least, that's what I can do with my NDS -- I bought it in Asia, and European games perfectly run on it.

Uh... oops. My bad. I did an "automatic translation", based on the "miroir => mirror" model... and forgot to check. I'm fixing that right now.
English isn't my first language, so I apologize if you don't understand me. But this doesn't mean that you are not allowed to correct me, eh.

Damn... It would be so much more convenient if I could just use a single game cartridge.
Oh well, at least I know I can use them now
Thank you very much.

"Petit Ange" Aki Kitaki is a nickname given to she by her friends. For Olga Orly, I understood the reference to "Oh really?". It's well done. For Vérité Wright, it gives a superb pleonasm: (W)right to "true", Vérité for... "truth"! In french, if fully reflected on his behalf, it would give "True Truth", a French expression to support even more the fact that telling the truth. Dr. Hotti, or Sashoff in french, became Dr. Chambouseux, as the name of the hospital.
The nickname Pollo comes from the shortening of (A)pollo Justice. Mr. Salty effective become M. Salé.
As the words "mièvres" (I do not believe that "mièvre" can be translated, understand... "honeyed") of the "Sénérade pour une guitare", this is normal, this is typically french xD We are the kings of love songs "mièvres" and ridiculous!
Sorry if my English is awkward in places, I use a lot of French expressions.

See this? This here? That is the work of genius.
Now I'm hearing it too: "We love you Konrad, oh yes we do! We love you Konrad, and we'll be true! When you're not near us, we're blue! Oh Konrad, we love you..." (And yes, I did somehow remember that off the top of my head. At least I stopped before I transcribed 3/4 of the song.)

Yes. Some screenshots have been released here (recently or not, I don't know), confirming some names.
Okay, I know that most of you don't really care but... there are still the others, so uh... XD
I'll try to complete when the game will be released in French. (Maybe today?.. Because of a Québécois law, games released in Québec now must be in French, and since Québec is in America...)
Case 4-1
Masaka Sakai - Olga (First name or surname, don't know.)
Case 4-2
Takita Kitaki - Willy Kitaki
Koume Kitaki - Petit Ange Aki Kitaki (WTF?!)
Also, Konrad is definitely confirmed as Klavier's French name.
And the significations of the names...
Olga is just a name that sounds Russian.
Also, she speaks approximatively French. (That may not be the case in English.) Also use some Russian words, such as "Da" (Yes).
Willy Kitaki... Well, honestly, I don't know. Maybe a sort of tongue twister.
Talks like a "banlieue" (suburb?..) young'un (not sure of the word).
Petit Ange Aki Kitaki... "Petit Ange" means "Little Angel". But for the rest, maybe a tongue twister like Willy Kitaki.
Oh, and, just a little thing... Apollo's hair are refered as "cheveux en pétard" ("firecracker hair") "tête de pétard" ("firecracker head"). If these sentences look a bit "weird" to you, just know that "cheveux en pétard" is a common expression used for persons whose hair are a bit "messed up".

*insert objection smiley here*
Law states that instruction manuals must be in French, game content is not obligatorily in French, but with EA, Eidos and Ubi having studios in Montreal (and Ubi being a French company anyway!), it's not uncommon to see actual translations. Nintendo did stir up a bit of controversy using joual as a translation for Phantom Hourglass and Super Mario Galaxy, so it's not ALWAYS a big win (and the games would have to be retranslated in France anyway, due to the fact that joual is pretty much exclusive to Quebec and perhaps a few maritime provinces (although that would be more Acadian/Cajun than anything).
Needless to say, it wasn't pretty.
But yeah. Unless they have offices in Montreal/Are willing to go the extra mile, they don't have to translate. Even in text heavy games.

The U.S. is referred to as America. So clearly, there is a contradiction, unless we know what the author was thinking!
