* FanNickname:
** ''Legends'' and ''Matrimelee'' were called ''Gogetsuji Legends'' and just ''Matrimelee'' in the US, but most fans use the ''Power Instinct'' prefix when referring to them for the sake of consistency. Also, ''Matsuri Senzo Kuyou'' is called as ''Power Instinct 5''.
** The blue-ish aura that surrounds a character when they gain a level in their power bar is called "Stress Flame" by fans because said power bar is known as the "Stress Meter". Since ''Legends'', every character (or almost everyone) has one or two special moves that become stronger if performed while dashing or right after a dashing attack, those have been nicknamed "Shadow Attacks".

** BadExportForYou: Some regional versions versions of ''Matrimelee'' had most of the stage songs removed, constantly reusing the themes used for Jimmy, Lynn and Elias (plus Mr. Jones' theme, which is otherwise never used, as you never fight him in any version of the game) after each battle except against Sissy. It should be noted that said songs are ''very'' short, and can become repetitive after hearing them successively after each fight.
