Boktai/Trivia

Divorced Installment: After skipping Boktai 3 for international release, Konami decided to distance fourth game from the franchise by marketing it outside Japan as an unrelated game.
No Export for You: Dammit, Boktai 3!
- In a very weird case of this, this also applies to a sidequest. The Japanese versions of Lunar Knights and Mega Man Star Force could link up and unlock bonuses in each others' games (including a new Terrennial in Lunar Knights), but despite the fact both were translated to English, they can no longer link up. You can still get the bonus cards in Star Force through Action Replay, but it's a bit buggy. The data for the Terrennial was completely removed though.
- Also, tied into Boktai 3, Mega Man Battle Network 6 possessed a wholly-integrated sidequest from Boktai that had Mega Man spanning the Graveyard area at the end of the Undernet. Not only was the sidequest removed, several of the areas you had to traverse were removed wholesale from the game code and certain items were rearranged and downgraded... which left gamers wondering why Bass, who has nothing whatsoever to do with bats, was left holding the "Bat Key"? And why was the prize so darn lackluster?
