Ice Climber was a game for the Nintendo Entertainment System( NES ). The obejct of the game was to get to the top of the current level( Mountain ) and once on top a bonus game would occur. You would have to collect a certain vegetable and then grab the condor that is flying at the top of the level to conquer the mountain. If you were successful, you would be awarded bonus points!
Nintendo never released a sequel and Ice Climber was forgotten…
HOWEVER, Many years later, the Ice Climbers returned as playable characters in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Some people were really confused because they had never played the game, which meant that they wouldn’t know who the Ice Climbers were.
Then, in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the Ice Climbers returned yet agian. They were not as mysterious as they were before since the original Ice Climbers is released on the virtual console. But it is still a forgotten series.
Ice Climber could have become a great series, along with the other forgotten series. If Nintendo would just pay attention, they could make great games…
