I know the guy who did that GIF image Shooter posted. He also said this:

First look on the left. I put a white line, that line will be known as "A". Basiclly, anything to the left of line A, is not original. The most obvious point, is circle 2, where the mountain just juts off, and then continues at a higher point. Circle 3 is some pretty bad editing also. These pipes and things in Circle 3 were added (if you look at the original without the line and circle, it's very obvious). Also notice how the line barely clears the coin counter, yet extends it just enough to match the resolution of the other pictures. There is also a more subtle line on the right side, the only realy obvious place you can tell is the clouds. Kamek, I had not even read your post until now so you got it right. Image doubling. Take a look at circles 4 and 5. The birds seems to be doubled, but more obviously, the water pack is DEFFINITELY doubled. I really have no explination for this, and it could be contributed to a bad capture except for one thing. Look in the top left corner of circle 6. If it was doubling, bother the top and bottom "layer" of the water pack would be identical. However, it seems as if part of the squid is in front of the bottom layer of the water pack, yet behind the top one. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. That alone leads me to believe this whole picture may not be what it started out as.

I don't understand some of it, but the mountains on the left side of the screenshot and the doubling of the water gun worry me. Maybe Nintendo just has a really bad screen capturing device. But if their screen capturing device is bad enough to actually double some images, who knows whether it can't also wash out colors and textures? I'm no techie, so maybe I have it all wrong. Still, there's something fishy going on with that picture.
Oh yeah, and if the GIF image Shooter posted is faulty because of a resizing issue, then why is the coin meter staying still while the other meters jump around?
