The trend originated from the Nintendo Direct broadcast on June 11, 2013, showcasing the 3DS and Wii U versions of Super Smash Bros. The key sequence showed the Villager capturing Mario with a net, followed by an orange screen displaying the text 'Villager Comes to Town!'. This animation served as the visual and textual template for content creators.
