Are they the biggest sneak in gaming?

Yup!

Are we talking about Steve?

I want more forgotten characters in smash. It's boring seeing everyone ask for Dante and 2B.

Literally everyone is. Even retro enthusiast say it's mediocre for the time

>>715311395 (OP)
They only got in because Sakurai couldn't get an Excitebiker to work

>>715312053
minecraft has several spinoffs

>>715311395 (OP)
i actually like ice climbers. it is definitely arcade game tier though

Anyone else autistic and used to think that each stage in Smash Bros was the character's house?

>>715312073
I'd love to see more niche, forgotten Nintendo characters in Smash Bros but given how vitriolic people can get over roster choices they don't care for, I doubt it'll happen again

monkey paw: it's a game and watch character

I've said this before and I'll say it again, I don't dislike the Ice Climbers and it's cool seeing people brainstorm what a new game starring them could be like but Smash Bros is literally the only reason why people give a shit about them to this day.
To be fair, Sakurai and his team did manage to make Nana and Popo absolutely adorable but if fucking Urban Champion got that spot in Melee there'd be people demanding his return even though his game is widely considered one of the worst original NES titles (along with Ice Climber).
But the thing about the Ice Climbers that really sticks is out is how Smash Bros completely reinvented their dynamic to such a degree where it's outright expected any potential revival to reflect said change.
What do I mean by this?
Ice Climber wasn't co-op, its multiplayer was competitive
Almost every fan pitch for a new Ice Climber game treats Popo and Nana as this inseparable duo because that's what Smash Bros showed with their inclusion when in reality they were friendly rivals

i liked imagining the amiibos were little houses shaped like the character that the character lived in and when you used an amiibo they got beamed into the game

Literally exactly what happened to Pit.

Wasn't he a fairly popular retro request?

>>715315702
No. He was a nepo choice by Sakurai, cause he liked the gameboy game.

>>715315585
The 3ds Kid Icarus game was amazing. I don't remember it being big though because of the weird controls.

Then why was it never referenced in Uprising?

I'd say Ice Climber would benefit from a modern reimagining, but knowing modern Nintendo, they'd probably turn it into open world/sandbox slop

If we're talking EPD it'll boil down to
>Elevation based game design
>Co-operation (if we're going by Smash Bros depiction)
That's it
If whatever game mechanic they could come up with makes sense the most to bring back the Ice Climbers with, it'll happen

>>715311395 (OP)
They cute tho

>>715313734
he got falcon to work, why couldn't he do it for this

>>715320913
He couldn't figure out how to make the biker jump while he's riding the bike IIRC

i always envisioned a sort of retro quartet game with mr g&w, ice climbers, rob and duck hunt, sorta like dk 64 but better, you could switch between the four depending on the situation
but i do wonder how game and watch would work in 3d

>>715321102
what a lame excuse, as expected of hackurai
just have him be out of the bike except for certain attacks, have him manifest the bike from thin air

>>715315382
I'm fine with this.
I rather Nintendo characters over any 3rd party shite.

>>715321526
you sure?

>>715322003
Yes.
Now fuck off.

>>715322516
are you REALLY sure?
