This cartridge arrived in perfect condition! However, after 2 uses, the connector on the inside needed to be rubbed down with a cotton-swab and some rubbing alcohol. After that, it worked perfectly!
Well, upon first try it didn’t work, so it was a bit bothersome, but after a slight scrape with sand paper and a quick clean with rubbing alcohol soaked q-tips it worked like a charm.
You know, it’s funny. If Ice Climber was a game that was conceptualized today, it would have most likely just been some generic snowy mountain climbing simulator with realistic physics and graphics, without any sort of creative integrity in the mix. However, since this is a Nintendo-made NES game hailing from 1984, it’s instead a colorful arcade-style platformer! And a cooperative one at that, meaning two players can play at the same time – a rarity for games of the era.Much to its arcade charisma, the goal of the game is simply to climb up the mountain. As Popo (with the second player being Nana), you jump under floors to break them and hop through, scaling the mountain. Some enemies would get in the way, and others may repair the broken platforms to interfere with the climbing session. A hammer attack is enough to kill off some baddies, but things do become a tad complex when obstacles like birds and floors that slide you around come into the mix.It all adds up to a fine little game, but I have a bone to pick with one aspect: The jumping control. If you’ve played as many Nintendo games as I have, you’ll find the jumping to be surprisingly jarring in Ice Climber. It isn’t as tight and fluent as the typical Mario or Kirby game, nor do you jump wide but not change direction like in the arcade Mario Bros. You can only influence your movement so much with Ice Climber’s jump. Jumping straight up is no problem, of course, but Popo/Nana moves left and right very slowly, meaning the.

As far as 8-bit classic games go this one is a hit. It is not as expansive as Super Mario Bros or The Legend of Zelda, but it is by no means a 1 screen game like Mario Bros (the non-super version). It comprises 20 increasingly challenging levels and what’s more, it is a real 2 player game – meaning both players are on the screen at the same time. I loved this game as a child and recently my son bought it for my birthday. It is as fun as I remember. The characters are perfectly suited to 8-bit so they don’t look pixilated and the actions, eg. jumping, walking, swinging your club and general physics, are 90-95% accurate. A quality game if you are in the mood for some mid 80s retro fun.
I’ve been waiting for more than 30 years to play this one
I always enjoyed playing Ice Climber during the nes era. Hidden gem for sure
