** Before him, Ness from ''[[Earthbound]]'' has been in all three ''Smash Bros.'' games despite his own game never being released in Europe.
** On a side note, Nintendo ''[[From a Certain Point of View|did]]'' release "Mother 3" outside of Japan... the soundtrack of the game, on iTunes. Only to pull it off of the iTunes store after a while.
* Some of the cast of the first and second ''[[Atelier]]'' games finally appeared in America... in the Gust game ''[[Ar
** This has gotten even more ridiculous and more Marth-like with the game ''[[Cross Edge|X Edge]]'' (pronounced "Cross Edge"), which has been released by NIS America in late May 2009. It's the full-on console debut for Marie, the first ''Atelier'' heroine, in a SSB-style crossover game... that wasn't produced by, and isn't distributed by, ''her own home company''.

** Lone Wolf and Gogo both first appeared in Japan and Europe in ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'' (the European one was a remake), but America in ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]''. Unusually for this trope, both characters have larger roles in ''VI'' than ''V''.

** Another example is the recurring Job Class of Dragoons, which originally came out in ''[[
* Terra from ''[[Ys]]: The Ark of Napishtim'' originally debuted in ''Ys V'', [[No Export for You|which was never exported]].
* In Europe the ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' games [[No Export for You|weren't released until the 7th game]] (Then came the port/remake storm...), so when ''[[Secret of Evermore]]'' was released, years before ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'' reached European shores, it basically meant ''Cecil Harvey debuted in Secret of Evermore'' (He's got a cameo there). Not to mention he happily mentions plot points of his game...
