TriviaEdit
- The Koopalings and Erdrick are the only playable characters originating from the 1980s not present in the event, due to them being alternate costumes for Bowser Jr. and the Luminary respectively.
- Mushroom Kingdom II and Temple are the only stages from a 1980s game not present in the event.
- Mushroom Kingdom II would later appear in the Hailing from the '90s event, in reference to the Japanese release date of Super Mario Bros. 2.
- Flat Zone X is the only stage in the event that did not appear in a game released on the Famicom.
- On the banner, the characters rendered in 8-bit style are Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, the Ice Climbers, Pit, Snake, Mega Man, Little Mac, Pac-Man, Duck Hunt, and Simon.
- Mr. Game & Watch also appears on the banner, replacing the 8 by using Judge #8.
