Quebec Gets Concessions

The Province of Quebec is withdrawing its threat to sue Sony and Nintendo for not marketing games in French to Quebec's 6.4 million francophones. The Quebec government came to an agreement with the companies in which both pledged to offer videogame users guides and product warranty information in French. No compliance date has been set, and the government will now attempt to find a similar settlement with Sega. "This is the least we can expect," said Quebec Language Minister Louise Beaudoin.
