Nintendo Wii Media | Smash Update: The Summit

By Jorge Ba-oh 31.10.2007 27

Today's Official Smash Bros. update takes players onto the peak of the Ice Climbers world with an action packed ice level to battle upon!

The summit? The summit of what? If you must know, I suppose it's the summit of Icicle Mountain. And I guess there are vegetables there after all.

At first glance, it appears to be a normal glacial peak. But after you fight for a while...

A pop! A crack! It's breaking?! Th-the terrain is sliding downhill! It's finally arrived at the sea. And with a splash, too!

Hmm. Talk about hectic. And rumor has it, you can't get careless once you've reached the sea.

I think that fish is from the Warioware Balloon Fight game. Can't be sure on that though.

Nice but the fish is now annoying me. Where did it come from? Where could we have seen it beforeSmilie

Smilie Awsome, I like it! It looks quite fun to play and im guessing if you fall in the water and you saty there too long you might get frozen!

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

Balloon Fight Smilie

Balloon Fighter for Brawl!! Smilie

EDIT: Seems again Ice Climber & Balloon Fight will be merging a bit. There was a Balloon Fight theme as the alternate song for Icicle Mountain in Melee.

Yeah, they added swimming in this game, it's also necessary in some of the adventure mode levels^^

I hope they do it would add to the level.

Now if they could only ad random lightning, then it would be a TRUE Balloon Fight/Ice Climbers level!

It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path.
