Localizations
breyerii:
Well Gali, I switched to English for TS2 with Uni, and haven't repented it. But not everyone will want to do that, despite the fact that we're talking about a game devoid of spoken cut scenes or dialogue. Personally I'll just walk into the nearest store and get it, when it comes out - usually a week after the USA - and there's a stand alone Uni patch.
Comparing prices is difficult, as also handling and shipping will have to be computated. In the end, though, someone will always want a localised version, however bad it is - TS1 and its expansions have been localised wonderfully, and so was TS2; to compare, Civilization III was apparently localised by an illiterate without a dictionary.
I don't know Restaurant Empire, but I believe the Asian version should also include Japanese.
ZephyrZodiac:
I'm pretty sure the UK edition includes German, and you can get a pretty competitive price from Amazon.co.uk.

I haven't gotten any answers from my Germans yet. (It is, after all Friday night :D) but I know that amazon.de is a good place to shop for Europeans. They even offer good shipping and handling prices for the European markets. I can't use them from here, the shipping and handling is not too good for overseas *sigh*
ZephyrZodiac:
I got both Sims2 and Uni from amazon.co.uk, and didn't have to pay postage on sims2, though I think I did for Uni as it was less than £25 but knowing me I would have bought something else to make it up to the minimum so I wouldn't have had to pay it anyway!

Good news, Posie has the list of languages in the UK version - looking at it, one can conclude that the European version of the game is the same for the entire continent. I invited her to post it here, should anyone need it.
