Art was made by Retro and features characters from games the studio has worked on. I'm still coming up nothing.

Maybe their secret game wasn't cancelled yet when they drew the art.

That grey triangle thing with three circles, I've already seen it and I think it's part of her arm cannon. The hand though...

Thing is, the idea of something actually new being hidden here seems so very unlikely, which only makes me more confused as to what's going on there.
Retro helped with Mario Kart 7, ARE THERE ROBO HANDS IN MK7?!

It's obviously from their next game, which Reggie helped with and is being purposefully obstructed.

Stay tuned this E3 for the full reveal.

I'm pretty convinced it's a very cheeky tease of whatever Retro's project has been, which makes it a hilariously indirect one.

I mean I don't think it's a tease for anything.

But I just can't figure out who it is. Has to be from Mario Kart 7 or something like that ?

Maybe it's Retro's boss's online avatar. Or maybe it wasn't but now they'll say it is to... cover their asses... Mr. Magic BBQ Hand, flipping Reggie's prime ribs until 2019.

It's obviously a new character in the upcoming Metroid x Donkey Kong crossover game to be announced at E3.

Yeah, the grey thing to the left of Mario's red sleeve is just Samus, the hand below is something else though.

They hid it well. Even the orange/green thing under Mario's taint (so happy I could use that as a descriptor) is just Samus leg.

Reggie literally only just retired. Implying this was made very recently, and thus whatever it is probably super relevant.

Weird.

Holy smokes there really is something there huh?! Retro's new character folks. The statue was placed there to hide it but they also knew that they'd show just enough to get people speculating. You know they read Resetera and our Retro Studios is dying threads. This is our tease before E3.

Also not gonna lie, seeing Dixie there with the crew and not Funky does my heart good. Retro know whats up. I love Funky but Dixie was a headliner while he was still a 2-bit hustler.

Reggie never retired, it's all a part of the most elaborate game reveal of all time.
