For others who may never have had the pleasure, the stage you see below is from the legendary SNES game Pilotwings, specifically the third island in the game and the first time you get to try out the hang glider.

You can sort of tell, the island's more detailed than the blocky Mode 7 island in the SNES game.
No, this screenshot was taken from the upcoming fourth Super Smash Bros game (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/nintendo-wii-u/beat-em-up/12297/smash-bros-4/), coming to Wii U and 3DS.
The screen was posted on the official Smash Bros site today with no further explanation. It was also posted on Miiverse with game director Masahiro Sakurai commenting: "This island looks familiar."
Too right it does, mate. Too right it does.
