In the end, the entire cutscene was rebuilt, low audio quality and everything, and the only thing that has not been changed is the letter song. The core of the joke is just the video itself, but it also made sense to create a fake article about how this cutscene for a new ''Pikmin'' game got leaked. | In the end, the entire cutscene was rebuilt, low audio quality and everything, and the only thing that has not been changed is the letter song.

{{ssbu}} had been recently released, and it brought back several "Smash Taunts" from previous entries in the series. These include Snake's codec calls, Palutena's Guidance conversations, and more. These events happen during gameplay with specific characters and stages, and when a specific player presses the down taunt button very quickly. If they pull it off uninterrupted, the conversations will start, and will be overlaid on-screen on top of the action, serving mostly for distraction and amusement. Their secondary goal is to provide info on a given fighter, but more often than not, they're not very serious and mostly make jokes at the expense of the Nintendo characters. | |||
Given that, in his games, [[Captain Olimar]] usually writes down his own interpretations of [[enemies]] and "[[treasures]]", and how these logs are mostly humorous, since he misinterprets a lot of things we take for granted, the idea to create a fake concept for a Smash Taunt about fighter notes sprung up. ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' features over 70 fighters, but since each one would only receive a paragraph or two of text, the editors behind the joke went for it. | |||
The concept behind these entries were that some would be informative of the character's nature, some would expand on Olimar's life, and some would be funny misinterpretations of the characters's actions and looks, similar to how the captain's journal entries in the canon games work. | |||
