The Official Ice Climbers Thread

[Eagle]

Congratulations Ice Climber players.

 

[Eagle]

I hope the stage that me and my brothers play on all the time won't be a LoZ stage. ( We're Casual Smashers )

I really like ice climbers so I wanna play on a big ice mountain or something, not their crappy old one.

 

[silver777]

<3 Is that a character intro?? they never put their hammers on the ground in Melee.

 

[Doc Chronic]

yea, their melee stage was horrendous. a new an improved one would be greatly appreciated

 

[Chrisiscool]

yeah, that deconfirms that rumor about G&W, and IC not returning .cause ic is! so now expect the G&W!

 

[pineappleupsetshark]

Congratulations Ice Climber players.

Thanks.
I may just change my avatar to the ICs.

...or it lowers game & watch's chances

 

[Bassoonist]

It neither lowers nor raises the chance of Mr. Game and Watch's chances.

We don't know Mr. Game and Watch's chances, and that's that.

Yeah, but according to a certain philosophy...if your pesimistic, when bad things happen you already expected it so your ready...But when good things happen your overwhelmed with joy

 

[Pluvia's other account]

Holy Crap!

Where did all this "The Ice Climbers might not return" stuff come from eh?

 

[soulz]

YES! When my page was loading i was like please be ice climbers, hahah funny how my mind works. I'm glad he decided to keep them in, hopefully technically better to use than before, and hopefully somewhat similar.
I was kinda sad about all the rumors about ICs not coming back but now i'm ecstatic.

 

[Chaos27]

Hmm im just wondering but Sakurai said that Popo is wearing blue. Is this true or am i color blind or something cause i see Popo wearing purple.

 

[Sonink]

It's a purpley-blue.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

That's blue...your screen is messed up

...I dunno

 

[Chaos27]

Really, cause i don't think my screen is messed up. I think i am color blind or something (too much smash lol).

 

[Reyairia]

Hmm im just wondering but Sakurai said that Popo is wearing blue. Is this true or am i color blind or something cause i see Popo wearing purple.

It's definitely blue, but it does seems to lean on the periwinkle side.

there was an old rumor way back in 06 about ic,gw,yl all getting cut and wwlink,ridley,and babybowser filling it in. but now that one character has made it back, that might lead the other ones too. like GW.

like this == if dr mario is confirmed, than wouldnt that raise the chances for falco?

 

[Chepe]

Lets see people try to bring back that crap rumor back now! You know, the Ridley/WW Link/Bowser Jr. replacing Ice Climbers/Young Link/Game&Watch one from the phony radio show?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Got news from the Icon Discovery Thread...

Since Ice Climbers are #14, that leaves 1 more Icon at 13...


Guess who it belongs to...

The only person from Melee whose icon has not been revealed...


GAME & WATCH IS IN!!!

 

[Chrisiscool]

g&w is in
pichu, roy, ylink are gone
hooray

 

[Mini Mic]

**** yeah! They look great and there is no real reason for them to be gone. I actually thought they were really good in Melee.

 

[Johnknight1]

*angels descend from the sky singing halliliuah*

Told ya so! Now watch me get Game and Watch right. I guess after Goroh, Deoxys, and the Pokémon Trainer, I'm back on track.

BTW, check out my vid expressing my happiness of thier confirmation!

[lampiaio]

This is such a happy moment. It was well worth the suspense!
Such a great week... Lyn ***** deconfirmed, Special Brawl, and a slap on the face of all those non-believers of the Ice Climbers' return!

Thank you very, very much Sakurai! Really worth the wait.

 

[lukintosh]

Woots! The climbers like SPLENTACULAR. Look the at the detail of the fur!
Lol at foolstool'd kirby

EDIT: Lyn *****? *a slap on the face*

 

[Iggy K]

IN YOUR ****ING FACES IC HATERS!!

Now I just need Ness, Jiggs and Mewtwo to be announced.

 

[Fawriel]

Yaaaaaaaaay.

Hehe, I didn't really look forward to them much, although I do like the Icies.
Kind of a pity that they are still half head, but oh well. I look forward to seeing them in random screenshots. ^^

I wonder what Chudat's reaction was when he saw this update...

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

This thread has served it's ill fated purpose. Time for the mods to resume clean up duty...

EDIT: Wait a sec... when the hell did this become the 'official' Ice Climbers discussion thread? I'm almost certain the 'official' wasn't there before this morning...

 

[Johnknight1]

Yaaaaaaaaay.

He made a thread about it, actually. Explaining his excitement in a sarcastic manner! That's how we do things here.

And then the #2 ranked Ice Climbers player Wobbles was happy as well [the guy who discovered wobbling]. Ice Climbers fans had to sweat tons of bullets, but overall they made it through in the end. Which is great...except now I'm afraid of getting 5 stocked by those two...

 

[Hejiru]

I think its stupid. They should have been cut long ago...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I think its stupid. They should have been cut long ago...

Too bad they weren't...

Their unique and definetly worthy of a repeat after their appearance in Melee...


...Game & Watch is coming back too according to the Icon Discovery theory!!!

 

[MetaKnight'sSword]

Well....The Ice Climbers are back ....what can I say...other than YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

 

[Takumaru]

After the whole lyn disappointment the ICs update is like sex. But better.

[axemangx]

Once again, Sakurai is charged with making human explosions in people.


Voluntary Manslaughter kthx.

 

[MuraRengan]

Ice Climbers 4 most unexpected comeback. WOOOT

 

[Sinn]

Hah, unexpected comeback. I hope this stops people from being so adamant about other characters not coming back when they have no real basis to believe so.

 

[k!llsw!tch]

It's awesome they're back, but then again I'm probably never going to use them.

 

[Thino]

what the ****? ICs??? before my Captain Falcon?

 

[Crystallion]

Hey, character update, finally. And one of the good veterans returning. I like the IceClimbers ^^ They are difficult to handle at first, but they can be terrific in good hands. Seriously, they needed the appreciation after the long period of absence in Nintendo history. I've never played the original game, but retro characters are always more than welcome (come on, Pit's so cool with his bow/twin swords). Also, certain rumors are dying away at the very moment.

EDIT:
Thino: Hey, that only means that Falcon has one of the best chances returning (I know, there's nothing to speculate about, he WILL make it back, I'm just saying). I guess the reason why they come first is that they are currently still working on Falcon and other characters who didn't do any fighting in their respective ideas. The Ice Climbers are easierto draw and recreate (at least I think) and the developers have at least an idea what their moves would be. This is only speculation, only an idea.
