These two frozen friends have been left out of the newest Smash game, which might be the most shocking omission of all.Ĭhance they'll be in DLC: Some fans are currently so upset that they would certainly pay to add Ice Climbers after the fact, but there's the unfortunate fact that game director Masahiro Sakurai said that the two had been cut because the twin characters were too taxing on the 3DS's CPU. Popo and Nana even became big on the competitive Smash scene after a grab exploit was discovered, but now those fans will have to find someone new for tourneys. But when this daring duo premiered in Melee, they became favorites for anyone that could keep track of the two characters moving around the screen at once. Melee, none but the most hardcore of Nintendo fans had heard of the NES game Ice Climber.
