About Ice Climber

The Ice Climber Famicom Disk System version could only be obtained via the Disk Writer method where you bought an empty disk and could copy a game for a small fee at certain copy stations. The game is not a direct port of the cartridge version, but from the Vs. Ice Climber arcade game. The differences to the cartridge version from 1985 however are minor and I think this game lost the rest of its appeal over those three years. Its fun for a few tries, but you soon start to realize that the gameplay is rather dull and unspectacular.
