50 best examples of select your language pages.

Select Your Language Page is that single page you see when you arrived for the first time on a website like cocacola.com or nintendo.com, a pre-home page, with a list of options: language, country, region, etc, normally related to a big brand or name with presence all over the world or some many others sites with the idea of being seen in any country, like mini-sites or promotional sites even personal portfolios.
There are many sites who redirect you automatically to a language by your physical location, and this could be easy in normal cases but in some cases this not the best option. Let’s say you are from South America but you are in a pleasure travel by China and you don’t know a single word of Chinese, but for any reason you want to go to whateveryouwanttoputhere.com and… Taraaa, is in Chinese.
The reason, if they track your location they can know where you are and intermediately redirect you to the Chinese version of the site… three seconds later you just quit the site because you don’t like the Chinese version. But if they have givento you a Select Your Language Page, you would have made just one more click and you’d be stay much longer on that site. That’s what we all want on our site keep our visitors.
I know this kind of options are normally related to flash sites and I know the design community is not a big fan of this sites, for problems like SEO, keywords, google rank, etc.. I personally love this kind of sites, because they are impressive and interactive, and normally it means: beautiful sites with big loading times for most of them. But their objective is totally different than a blog, or forum. And designers have worked on, to create this pages like any other page on the site even if is not the most visited, so they deserve to be shown and appreciated.
