*The title of this event is almost identical to the phrase “the year is 20XX”, a term referring to an unspecified date in the 21st century well-known for its use in the introduction of many ''{{uv|Mega Man}}'' games, which has become a meme among many gaming communities, including ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. | *The title of this event is almost identical to the phrase “the year is 20XX”, a term referring to an unspecified date in the 21st century well-known for its use in the introduction of many ''{{uv|Mega Man}}'' games, which has become a meme among many gaming communities, including ''[[Super Smash Bros.

*[[Hero#Dragon Quest VIII|Eight]] and the female [[Pokémon Trainer]] were the only playable characters at the time who originated in the 2000s but were not present in the event, due to them being alternate costumes for [[Hero (SSBU)|the Luminary]] and the male Pokémon Trainer, respectively. | *[[Hero#Dragon Quest VIII|Eight]] and the female [[Pokémon Trainer]] were the only playable characters at the time who originated in the 2000s but were not present in the event, due to them being alternate costumes for [[Hero (SSBU)|the Luminary]] and the male Pokémon Trainer, respectively. | ||
**The [[Koopalings]] and [[Alph]], however, can be selected as alternate costumes for {{SSBU|Bowser Jr.}} and {{SSBU|Olimar}}, which would break the theme as they debuted in the 1980s and 2010s respectively. | **The [[Koopalings]] and [[Alph]], however, can be selected as alternate costumes for {{SSBU|Bowser Jr.}} and {{SSBU|Olimar}}, which would break the theme as they debuted in the 1980s and 2010s respectively. | ||
*[[Living Room]] is the only stage from a 2000s game not present in the event. Although it is specifically based off of ''{{s|wikipedia|Nintendogs + Cats}}'', released in 2011, the general concept first appeared in the original ''{{s|wikipedia|Nintendogs}}'', released in 2005. This is opposed to [[Bringing Back the '80s]] using [[Palutena's Temple]] and [[Boxing Ring]], and this event's Tomodachi Life, which debuted in earlier games but are based on more recent appearances. | *[[Living Room]] is the only stage from a 2000s game not present in the event.

*Even though Battlefield can be played on in the event, {{SSBU|Final Destination}} cannot. Though both stages first appeared in the first ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' (released in 1999) as single player stages, before becoming selectable in ''[[Melee]]'' (released in 2001), Battlefield's appearance in the first ''Super Smash Bros.'' could have been considered a different stage, as it was named [[Duel Zone]] originally. | *Even though Battlefield can be played on in the event, {{SSBU|Final Destination}} cannot.

*This is the only decade-based event not to allow any downloadable characters to be used; if it were to be revisited, this would no longer be the case since [[Sora]], who had not been released at the time of the event, is a character originated in the 2000s. | |||
