In the previous games, 4-player Ice Climber matches could suffer intense lag I can’t imagine 16 Nanas and Popos being done on the Wii U. While keeping them from cross-platform transfers wouldn’t be much of a problem, 8-Player Smash could be a far greater one. The 3DS wouldn’t be alone in logistical issues, though. I think many fans (myself included) suspected that DLC would be exclusive to the larger, more powerful console, but that’s only been the case with modes. While the Wii U version has more content, notice how it’s only gotten one exclusive stage out of five. I think that for him, to create version-exclusive fighters would be to make unequal Smash games, and making sure they’re equal is a matter not just for the consumers but also one of pride. Sakurai has written extensively about the games being comparable in ambition, with the 3DS version being more than a quick port. The issue here comes from the very concept, though. Having characters just for it would go right along with that. And why not? For most players, it’s considered the superior version, with not only a greater abundance of content but also that sense of performance and spectatorship a personal screen is simply unable to provide.
Wii U Exclusive: The first alternative, and likely the one most players latched onto, was that the Ice Climbers just be exclusive to the home console version.
#ICE CLIMBERS NANA ART SERIES#
This series has done incredible things against expectations, but skepticism seems more than a safe bet in this case. Some people have interpreted Sakurai’s comments as saying that he could have implemented them with more time, but I’m unsure - the 3DS version has a lot of limits in its size, power, DLC possibilities, and computing. But even then, the graphical computation is a problem that would also demand paring them down visually, far more so than other fighters. Nana, by contrast, is an actual character while her movements are dictated by the player, she still has basic CPU control. Rosalina & Luma are able to work because Luma is treated more like an item than even the Pikmin (who in the Wii U version can individually pick items up), complete with very low AI. While some changes to characters had elements of game design - Olimar was able to be balanced, transforming characters are now far more individual - the system is very limited in what it can program. Sakurai explained the console’s limitations while discussing them, which are comparably small to the point where programming Olimar was an arduous task. Simply Returning: For the most part, we should largely forget the possibility that they could work on 3DS. Be that as it may, Nana and Popo are a beloved part of Smash, and if nothing else they certainly deserve to be considered. All of them have some merits, but they are crippled through serious issues that limit the characters’ potential. And its some of those possibilities we’re going to discuss today.īecause a “Pros” and “Cons” list seems largely pointless and the two are a special case, instead I’m going to just go through some of the options that fans have put forward.
Many of them are still campaigning for their inclusion via DLC, some suggesting changing the fighters to better work. Of course, ever veteran has fans and these two had more than a few. Their removal from the series roster was one of the most controversial topics of the game’s history, to the point where Sakurai had to openly address it in his Famitsu column. While they were on the Smash For plan and even garnered a Smash Run enemy, they ended up being scrapped because of the limitations of the 3DS. The salad days, sadly, seem to have come to an end. And despite a false rumor that signaled their being cut from Brawl, they returned triumphant and still popular. Explorers from the classic arcade and NES title, Nana and Popo were few players’ favorite choices for fighters, but with their unique dual-character mechanic - players moved Popo, while Nana (usually) worked in tandem - they bashed their way to the bonus vegetables of gamers’ hearts.
