There's a hidden character in this art from Retro Studios and I can't figure out who it is [UPDATE: IT'S A TEASE]

They weren't rumored to have work on it. It was just shit posting, it was a meme here, the usual "Retro is doomed" : "they have spent 5 years working on fucking cardboards".I think it might just be a stylized version of the Labo Robot, which Retro Studios was rumored to have worked on.
People at Retro would have been credited if they had worked on it lol they ain't Nintendo's ghost devs.
May or may not be helpful, but you might be able to make out something from the reflection onto the black marble of the Mario statue below.
NOTE: bear in mind, the reflection of the Mario statue's own black foot and leg would be blocking some of the middle area, angling up to the left slightly, but I didn't want to crowd out the visuals too much (and it's mostly black on black anyway).

Nice! I'm not sure how photoshop works but could you try removing the Mario statue altogether so we can get a good look at the full robot character?Had a little fun in Photoshop trying to help see the character in a different perspective.
First I removed Samus' elbow that seemed to be confusing the scale of the character. Then I partially got rid of the Mario statue to remove some obstruction.
Hope this makes for an okay first post on resetera.
/s ;)
THE TREES, MAN
Wait is there actually something there?
If even ARMS, which was released in June of 2017 and was probably already in development since 2015, did not get an opportunity due to "timing & scheduling constraints" I doubt the little Robot has a chance.
Best case scenario is DLC Season 2. Most likely in my opinion would be Smash 6.

OP
For all we know Retro's game has been in development since Tropical Freeze development ended back in late 2013. This character's almost definitely not coming to Smash Ultimate, but there's a chance it's actually older than Spring Man in terms of development.
I was having fun sex when I wrote my last post, but I was not playing Nintendo at the same time.
So thus Reggie had only half more fun than me.
edit: Your post made me chuckle quite a bit. Thank you.
Hard to say, there might have been multiple games in development since 2013 which got cancelled at different points. Not sure if we will ever get the full story, but just the fact there is a chance we might get a Retro new IP before Metroid Prime 4 is fantastic.
I do not know. Will the robot work with the energy of a potato?
People are right. There's gonna be major outrage once Retro's new IP isn't a dark gritty cinematic beard-em-up.
I don´t think the part you removed belongs to Samus.Had a little fun in Photoshop trying to help see the character in a different perspective.

Her elbow doesn´t look like this and her armcannon is not that long and weirdly bent either.
This has been analyzed to death in this thread, that part is without a doubt part of Samus' arm cannon.
Folks went over this earlier in the thread, it's accounted for in one of her designs. It looks odd and disconnected when part of it is obscured, but it def belongs to Samus
I'm worried people will look at the budget and say it doesn't look like a big budget game a 5 year game should be.
It's actually the most Reggie thing ever, I love it.
Kind of a genius idea actually.
Breath of the Wild was a 6 year game and it supposedly broke even at 2M units sold.
I don't think Nintendo games operate with the same idea of a budget as other games.
Are you sure about that assertion? I feel like maybe you're using the Nintendo adage of "2 mil copies to break even" which is almost certainly not applicable to a game that took 6 years to make. Some of their titles clearly have more budget behind them, like Zelda, and the 2 mil target is a general target.
Zelda is a tent pole for them, much like Mario. It's going to have a bigger budget and sales targets.
My point is that their games don't seem to operate with individual budgets like that. That "2M to break even" thing is basically a fact of their game development style, where they share developers and resources between different teams and projects essentially all the time.
They can't really give you an exact number each specific game needs to sell to break even since they don't budget in that way, therefore they gave an average of about 2M.
How close minded are you? Just accept that opinion and don't dismiss it because you have another one. Genuinely annoyed by posts like these
No, the shape of the area I highlighted kinda looks like a bear lol
I shouldn't have said budget. I meant scope of the game. You know people will compare it to Botw or Odyssey or God of War and say "Retro worked on this not so big scope of a game for 5 years?!"
I thought so but wasn't sure lol.
Having analyzed the reflection way more than I probably should've, even messing with contrast for a better view, I think the part where the robot's face would be is obscured by Mario's leg.
