Stage looks cool. Hopefully weird things happen - like real physics dictating where rolliung boulders go. Banned from tourney play but that goes without saying.

Also - WTF? Airplanes? Pieces of a building in the sky? Climbing animations for every character (look at Mario there)? New gameplay element - climbable stuff?

Woot.

Cool, DK stage. It's like a tropical Infinite Mountain :D
I wonder if the ladders are really climbable or if they just made the screenshot look like that?
I wonder what that could mean for other stages?

If they took this stage from Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat, then that means all kinds of stage possibilities come up!

Super Mario Galaxy anyone?

My question is: who actually liked Ice mountain? Nobody I've ever played with, casually or seriously, actually enjoyed playing on that stage. Ever.

Mario is climbing a ladder if anybody didn't notice. Kinda cool. Insta-banned from tournaments though.

can you say BANNED?
Don't see why it would be. Pokefloats and Rainbow Cruise weren't banned in Melee. As long as the movement is predictable or controllable (meaning it'll only move up when a character does) then there is no reason to ban it.

if the stage scrolls slowly seems like a mario party minigame

also if you can climb stuff think of 1 player possibilities

Hey, it can't be as bad as the Ice Climbers stage. I think they learned from at least SOME of the design flaws of that stage... I hope. :p
Well, for one, it does not suddenly change the scrolling speed. Yay?

This does not bode well for the IC's.

They could still be in, of course, but this clearly shows that the SSB team doesn't have a problem with just totally replacing a niche stage.

Who said this is infinite like the ice climbers level? The update never mentioned that. There seems to be a top where it stops scrolling.

I think it's just the proximity of the edges of the stage to the left and right bounds. I know whenever I'm at Icicle Mountain, I like to wait at the edges to backwards throw people to their deaths. lol. I wonder what IS at the top of that stage? There's some beanstalk action there, maybe the top is that cloudy stage we saw before.

Infinite Glacier,
Most annoying stage I've seen
****, it's coming back
Let's not all jump the gun here. Hopefully this stage will be loads better than Infinite Glacier. Admittedly, Melee was rushed, so this will probably be more balanced anyway.

The stage itself looks good. You can't go wrong with waterfalls. If the climb stays at a reasonable pace, we could have a really nice environment for matches. More like Mario's Rainbow stage than Infinite Glacier.

'Course, if they really rush us up the stage...

also no surprise but dk's up smash is the same yay

anyway the banning part will probably be due to the runoff part but party time

finally i think that's a part of the stage not an item
