Ice Climbers Confirmed for SSB: Brawl!

September 14, 2007 in News comments 17

Yes, the icy duo have returned! Despite unconfirmed rumors that themselves and Mr. Game and watch would be replaced by Bowser Jr. and Cel-Shaded Link, The Ice Climbers are back!

The one in blue is Popo. The one in pink is Nana. And the two of them get along great! ...I think.

These two move as a pair, with Nana automatically following along. There’s safety in numbers—protect and be protected!

    I'll admit, the character models look great. But they better make these guys not suck as much ass as they did last time around.

      Everyone says that shortly before someone who can play them really well hands you your ass.

    I am glad they have been confirmed, even though they are not the best and not very popular, I like having more characters in the game. Plus, ALL previous characters should return, otherwise it's just a waste.

    I'm happy to see that they have returned. Everyone was saying that they were going to be removed and they were one of my favourites from Melee. Great to see them come back!

    Somebody over at HAL must have made DAMN sure that this dynamic duo made the jump from Melee to Brawl in some format, or there would have been hell to pay! Ice Climbers was one heckuva a license to resurrect for Smash Bros., that's for sure, so it's great to see them back.

    Plus, they're just so darned cute.

    I don't ever use the in any SSB games but if you use them right then they can actually be forcfule. But I usually use Bowser and Dr.Mario in one SSB game.

    I'm glad that they make a return to Brawl. These guys were a pair that I wanted to see come back. Plus they definitely do look a lot better in Brawl now. They actually have fur on their coats!

    Eh, never really used 'em, but it's good that we can stop arguing on wether there booted out or not. Now we just need G&W confirmed, so we can rest at peace..

    Good to see that one of the more unique characters is back. Now all we need are G&W, Ness and Mewtwo.

    I never used the Ice Climbers in Melee, but they were always fun to fight I'm glad they made it into Brawl. They look pretty good in screenshots too

    Ice Climbers were few of the ones to dominate in Melee (FACT!)

    I never doubted they would be removed. Why? It would be stupid to boot off a unique character with there own attacks. Now we need Game & Watch.
