Panel de Pon, or Tetris Attack as it was known in the West, was a SNES puzzle game that is notorious for having a bunch of cute fairies that got replaced with Yoshi characters with the Tetris title (thus screwing this game over for future releases). Its sequels fared no better, as while the devs did rename it to the more sensible Puzzle League from then on, they had tried using the fairy characters again but ended up using other franchises instead (from Yoshi, to Pokemon, to Animal Crossing, to none at all), and the only time they made a sequel that revisited that concept was on the Gamecube, as a quasi-remake of Pokemon Puzzle League on the N64, and of course that never made it to the US or Europe. On top of that, the easter egg in the DS version got removed outside of Japan, so I'm partially convinced someone at Nintendo of America has it out for the fairies. (At least Smash keeps them in some peoples' memories?)

Either way, I wanted to do a cover from this game for a while, since probably 2017, if I remember right? However, for whatever reason every time I wanted to start doing it, I either stopped at the beginning or pushed it back in favor of something else. Eventually, I stopped stalling and decided to just do it, and post it no later than the 21st so I would have no excuse to stall further. I also did it in FDS so I'd break from the VRC6 mold for a bit.
