* As an additional consequence of the Fox ban mentioned above, ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcomInfinite'' was the first, and to date ''only'' installment in the ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom'' series to not include ''any'' X-Men or Fantastic Four characters whatsoever. No in-story explanation is given for the absence of these characters, and other than a sly allusion to ComicBook/{{Storm}} in one of ComicBook/BlackPanther's voice lines (which [[WritingAroundTrademarks doesn't even name her directly]]), they aren't even mentioned.

** Due to [[ExiledFromContinuity Ike Perlmutter's corporate mandate barring the promotion of]] ''ComicBook/XMen'' characters, no mutant heroes associated with the Avengers were allowed in the game. This means that despite the game having tons of characters and including as many Avengers as possible, ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, ComicBook/{{Beast|Marvel Comics}}, Justice, Firestar, ComicBook/{{Storm}}, ComicBook/{{Rogue}}, Havok and Sunfire were all banned from appearing. The sole exceptions were ComicBook/ScarletWitch and ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}}, who were only allowed in due to the game using their [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse MCU]] incarnations, who are not mutants.

* The ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' franchise does this often, as a result of having to tell the plots of 10-20 different HumongousMecha anime all at the same time, along with the OriginalGeneration plotline. Oftentimes, characters from other anime will take up the abandoned roles, but this isn't always true.

** This is something of a recurring problem for ''G Gundam'' in ''SRW''. It never has much plot-inclusion and is mostly there to give the player some more Gundams to use. This is probably because most of the series is one long TournamentArc, which narratively would be tough to fit into the typical war story narrative of an ''SRW'' game, and gameplay-wise isn't the best fit for SRW's team-based Tactical RPG setup.
** In ''VideoGame/ShinSuperRobotWars'', the other Shuffle Alliance members are not in the game entirely. Since Gundam Wing was still airing when the game was released, Heero and Zechs were the only characters in the game.

As a result, Bastila became the {{deuteragonist}} while the Sunriders are never shown, [[DemotedToExtra only mentioned by in-game items]] and [[CoolOldGuy Jolee Bindo]].

However, Vima's mother and former Grandmaster of the Jedi Order Nomi Sunrider made a brief cameo in a holocron in ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' (under her maiden name Da-Boda), and it's mentioned in supplementary materials that Vima herself trained TheExile from ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublicIITheSithLords''.
