Nintendo registered "马力欧网球 王牌"(Mario Tennis Aces) in China.
The existing S. Chinese translation (in the global release) for the game is "马力欧网球 Ace"。 Nintendo and Tencent most likely need a "full" Chinese title to comply with Chinese regulations.

It's widely believed that the western release of Pokémon Black and Pokémon White are playable on any Nintendo DSi or 3DS, regardless of region.
This, however, is false as those games do not run in the "China" region and are thus unplayable on an iQue DSi or an iQue 3DSXL.

 Fri Mar 06 02:10:15 +0000 2020


Replying to @chinesenintendo

It's also interesting how the "Taiwan" region was encoded in foresight, as the first Taiwan region Nintendo handheld did not exist until the Nintendo 3DS/XL was released in Hong Kong and Taiwan in 2012.

Interesting. If your claim comes from actual testing, then we are now having conflicting test results, as one of my friends reported their iQue DSi not to support the EUR version of Pokemon White (Which has the same region codes as the USA Version).

The Traditional Chinese release of New Super Mario Bros. 2 Gold Edition contains a full, unused Simplified Chinese translation.
However, all instances of "Mario" in the DLC levels are incorrectly translated using the Hong Kong/Taiwan name, as they were inaccessible to SC players.



 Mon Mar 09 06:59:09 +0000 2020


Replying to @chinesenintendo

Why are the inaccessible? Simple. The iQue 3DSXL does not feature a Nintendo eShop, so this bars purchasing any DLC.

I'm unable to provide an image right now, but the electronic manual for the SC release axed the DLC section entirely.

Some Nintendo 3DS cartridges released in Hong Kong and Taiwan are playable in Simplified Chinese on an iQue 3DSXL.
Read the rectangles near the rating, on the spine, and on the back to check iQue 3DSXL compatibility. "繁體中文" => not compatible while "中文" ones are compatible.


 Tue Mar 10 22:23:09 +0000 2020


Replying to @chinesenintendo

"繁體中文" means "Traditional Chinese" (only) and "中文" means "Chinese" (Both S and T).
In this case OOT3D(TW) is iQue compatible while MK7(TW) is not.
It's very possible that Nintendo put Simplified Chinese in HK/TW releases to bypass China's lengthy and risky game approval.
 Tue Mar 10 22:25:36 +0000 2020


The package of Super Mario 3D Land in Hong Kong and Taiwan show a rating of 6+ in CGSRR ratings.
However, the internal cartridge data shows that the game is considered to have a 0+ rating when it comes to parental controls age restriction.

 Tue Mar 10 22:35:46 +0000 2020


Replying to @chinesenintendo

According to the rating guideline of CGSRR, P (6+) rating is needed for "fighting of cute characters" (Possibly equivalent to "Mild Cartoon Violence" in ESRB), which does exist frequently in SM3DL. Thus, the 0+ rating in cartridge data could be a programming oversight.

For instance, prior to the official Chinese system menu in 7.0.0, Nintendo HK used the Jp system menu for customer support.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (China) does not display flags and country of origin in online multiplayer.
Most probably because all players are from the same country anyways.

Yes. The global multiplayer option is axed out entirely from the menu.

From what I heard, it was unchanged.
It is possible that the approval board is tolerant of single English letters (The translated title for NSMBUDX still has the "U"), but not letter combinations that could constitute words.

Flags are still displayed in regional modes in the global version, and I know people who take pride in going online with their iQue 3DSXL and show off their Chinese flags: This would be a bummer to them.

Of all the staff members, Chen Yijun's name has yet to be seen in any previous iQue localization projects. It's very likely that Chen is a new member of the iQue localization team.

Far from it. If you've played a first party Nintendo Switch title in Chinese language you'll have iQue to thank. They just don't sell products under their brand anymore so their name no longer has as much publicity.

In one of iQue's Super Mario Advance trailer, the commentary humorously asks "Is this Shenzhou 5?" when Peach picks up a rocket in level 4-1.
Shenzhou 5 was China's first human spaceflight mission, launched in October 2003, roughly one year before the launch of SMA in China.

During the iQue GBA era, iQue often resorted to reverse engineering for localization as obtaining the source code requires lengthy negotiations. The tools and procedures used were developed by fan translators, but iQue applied them on a very systematic and professional basis.

Many RPG games used tiny (8*8) font for letters and kana, which is near impossible to read for Chinese characters. As a result, iQue had to be creative with making their fonts and a lot of interns were recruited to do the boring task of manually drawing small fonts.
