1* BadExportForYou: [[Music/{{VOCALOID}} "Senbonzakura"]] is unavailable in non-Japanese versions. While the song not being in the Korean version is to be expected due to the [[UsefulNotes/ImperialJapan themes]] of the song, it seems rather odd that the song would also be removed from non-Japan, non-Korea builds as well.
2* CreatorDrivenSuccessor: To ''Keyboardmania''; although it is not connected in terms of development, Konami has acknowledged the fact that both games utilize a simulated piano keyboard. Both games simulate the same instrument (piano and similar keyboard instruments), ''Nostalgia'' in particular has tracks that are explicitly billed as ''Keyboardmania'' crossovers[[note]]''Keyboardmania'' was long discontinued at the time of ''Nostalgia''[='=]s release, and crossovers are normally credited to the first ''currently active'' game they appear in if they debuted in a discontinued game[[/note]], some of which have not appeared in any other game, and ''Nostalgia Op. 2'' introduces a HarderThanHard difficulty called "Real", a difficulty name that had not been used since ''Keyboardmania 3rd MIX''. That said, ''Nostalgia'' is much easier to learn, due to notes corresponding to ranges of keys rather than requiring the exact key to be hit and eschewing a LifeMeter in favor of a score-based pass/fail system.
3* NoExportForYou: As is unfortunately par for the course for modern Japanese arcade games, the game is only available in Japan and select countries in Asia, and the online DRM requirement ensures that arcades not on the whitelist can't run it. It's not even available at Round 1's American branches.
4* RecycledSet: The game reuses the ''VideoGame/BeatStream'' cabinet, due to the latter's online service (and the game having online-requiring DRM) being terminated around the time the former was introduced. The key ([[{{Pun}} ahem]]) difference is the addition of a piano controller just below the touchscreen. However, an original cabinet designed specifically for ''Nostalgia'' is also available.
5* SimilarlyNamedWorks: There's another game named ''Nostalgia'' that [[VideoGame/NostalgiaRedEntertainment has its own page on TV Tropes Wiki]].
