@@ivanthemountainman9291 With how many series have gotten a second wind due to their popularity in Smash, yeah, I'm surprised we haven't seen them again in some capacity.
Ice climber should have a captain toad style game but with more verticality and depth in the levels. Climbing to the summit in 3D format and exploring blind spots to collect items. The themes of the levels would go through the Alps, Everest, Siberia, Patagonia, etc.
I would love a new ice climbers game. in your examples you show spelunky and i think that is the kind of game that works the best. I think roguelite instead of roguelike in a spelunky kind of game would fit best. The goal would still be to go up the mountain, but there are various routes to do so. And along the way you kind find treasure to upgrade climbing gear. The game should focus on the platforming and puzzle element, but have small element of combat to pound a yeti away or something. And they could differate Popo and Nana (and maybe add more climbers as well) to have different powers and advantages so each character gives a different experience.
These are cool ideas. (Pun not intended.) Seems like fun ideas. For some reason I imagine a reboot would have crafting mechanics where you can make ropes and pickaxes for easier travel and to mine through ice for secret rooms or dungeons.
I think a 3d platformer would do it well, and they wouldn't even have to worry about combat, because they can just borrow from smash brothers. Maybe it could follow the formula of things similar to maybe mario 64 or mario 3d land, or maybe they could come up with something new altogether.
If Kid Icarus could get a revival, I think Ice Climber deserves a shot, I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.
For sure!
Surprised? Really?

It would be really cool if a rogue like was centered around platforming rather than combat. That could work with an Ice Climbers reboot.
Definitely! It has a lot of potential I think

Wow, really like this idea. Slower paced Captain Toad-style vertical climb sort of puzzle platformer :)
I've thought about this a little bit before, but not specifically. Thanks for the video!
They have so much potential that I could see them taking on gameplay, similar to Pac-Man’s 3D games.
Hear me out: 2.5 d platformer where the mountain is 3d and you go up it while going around the tube like turning
Very cool idea
I agree
A roguelite Ice Climber reminds me of TowerClimb
Nintendo should bring back mysterious murasame castle.
That’s a deep cut that I’m totally down for :)
YES!!!
The roguelike concept makes me think somewhat of a reverse-direction version of SteamWorld Dig.
If people can spend days mastering Jump King, I don't see why verticality would be a problem.

Make it a crossover with Celeste developed by Maddy!
Yes!
I'd want a 3D adventure for them, personally
Would be very happy about an Ice Climber 3D platformer :)

The crafting is such a good idea!
honestly a 3d platformer combat focused rogue like with metroid vania qualities would be a dream
There is the predecessor to ice climbers, the game&watch game Climber.
Actually is a pseudo/spiritual sequel.
Launched in 1986.
I think we should. Kid Icarus got a revival and the game turned out amazing. Ice Climbers deserves a shot too.
Agreed. It’s very exciting whenever they choose to revive an older franchise
Nintendo needs to see this

That would be fantastic
Bread & Fred type of game I can totally see an ice climbers game being like that
Ice Climbers RPG
what if it had a crossover with Celeste
Would be amazing
