I know what you're thinking. But we've already checked. The model does NOT appear to be from Kid Icarus Uprising, or the AR Card, or any other known existing source.
SuperSah even combed through every bit of released media we have to make sure that the background and the Mario components have not been ripped from existing screenshots. They appear to be completely original.
Here's the roundup:
The Mario is NOT in any previous screen.
Her model is NOT from KI:U
The Background is 100% original.
I checked this twice through my whole 3DS collection, looking legit.
Try not to hype incase it's a good fake, lol.
If it's a fake, which it might still be, then this is some next level shit. They would have to fake the backgrounds, the Mario model, and the Palutena model with complete verisimilitude. Wouldn't make a thread otherwise.
UPDATE: Sakurai knows. He's trolling with the pic of the day.
