* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: Veigue, Kohak, and Reala (Unless you count the ShoutOut in ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'') cameod as bonus bosses in this game. In addition, ''plenty'' of Franchise/TalesSeries characters who never got localized have appeared in the form of cartas.

* NoExportForYou: Really, it's almost redundant to add this to Tales games at this point. The kicker is that the {{PS3}} version is looking to avert this, while the console it was originally developed for will not.
** Which also breaks the trend, too. Looking at the record for TalesSeries games, the EnhancedRemake / UpdatedRerelease on a Sony system is typically the one to ''not'' get exported. Part of the reason is that supposedly, the condition to get the original localized was an exclusivity contract.

** Which also breaks the trend, too. Normally, it's the version made for a non-Sony Platform that makes it outside of Japan, with the superior Sony version (being the "complete" version to boot) remains in Japan. (To be fair, part of this is also because in the case of Symphonia and Vesperia, the condition to release the game contained an exclusivity clause.)
* RemadeForTheExport: The PS3 port is getting translated even though that wasn't the case for the original Wii version.
