** As of this writing, there are no available drum peripherals that are natively compatible in the XBOX version of Taiko no Tatsujin: The Drum Master. You may, however, use another drum peripheral and slap it with a compatible adapter, but your mileage may vary.

** The Western versions of ''Drum Session'' did not have a package that included the HORI Taiko drum peripheral that was released in Japan and Asia regions; however, text and diagrams referring to it are still present and this version supports it. Furthermore, the music "[[VideoGame/StreetFighterV Theme of Ryu]]" was removed from both US and EU version of the base game as well. It is even worse for the European version of the game, where it features less DLC songs than the Japan, Asia and North America versions has at the time the game launched in europe regions.[[note]]Though the number of DLC songs had finally catching up with the JP/AS and US version's as of recently.[[/note]]

Please note that both Namco and Bandai were merged in 2006, and Taiko 0 was first released in 2011.


** [[WordOfGod Namco]] stated that they have no plans for introducing the newest arcade installment (including updates) to regions outside Japan. However it didn't last long as they re-introduced the arcade Taiko games to Asian countries, starting with the ''Momoiro'' version.
** Most of the console and handheld editions suffer greatly from this for reasons unknown, with the series having a single localized game in 2004 before going dead silent for over a decade. It wasn't until 2017 when Namco started reversing the trend, with both ''Drum Session'' and ''Drum 'n Fun'' getting localized simultaneously, and ''Rhythmic Adventure Pack'' (containing two of the three [=3DS=] games) coming just two years after.

* BadExportForYou:
** All third-generation ''Taiko no Tatsujin'' arcade cabinets outside of Japan have fewer songs than the Japanese version have due to licensing issues. Also, Asia version of the arcade doesn't have the web-only Katsu medal reward shop as Japanese version do, making buying unlockable songs extremely difficult if missed.
** Similarly, the Chinese version of ''V Version'' has less J-pop and anime DLC songs for the same reason.
** In a similar fashion to ''[[VideoGame/HatsuneMikuProjectDIVA Hatsune Miku: Project mirai DX]]'', the song "Senbonzakura" was excluded from the "Hatsune Miku" DLC pack for ''Drum Session'' in South Korea due to its culturally-sensitive lyrics.
