The old vocaloid store is now defunct and replaced with the vocaloid shop. Not every product on the old tore made it into the new shop for various reasons. For example, the newer shop is DL only so this is why Nana has since joined Ah software. Ona was never a real vocal per say so ou wouldn't be able to find on her anyway.

Vocals produced outside of Asia get a lot less attention overall and are often more likely to use another party such as CFM to sell their vocals rather then yamaha. I know it sounds odd, but Yamaha may not ness. produce the best results. If its like Steam, well Steam takes a 10% profit from games sold on its store. By using a different, cheaper 3rd party Zero-G and PowerFX earn more back if this is a case. Maika's absence from the store if true is likely because the agreement to sell her was not renewed for one reason or another when the store became the shop.

Either way, Japanese companies don't really talk about vocals from overseas... Its not been unknown for CFM for instance to fail to acknowledge from time to time Sweet Ann came before Miku.
