Dojo update: Ice Climbers and the Golden Hammer

We knew we forgot something on Friday. The dojo updated and we surely dropped a big ball in not informing you of the return of the Ice Climbers. We're quite happy to see them returning, just as you undoubtedly are.

Today's update brings news of a new kind of item: the Golden Hammer. As a more powerful and rare form of the normal hammer, it allows players to float in the air. And, like the normal hammer, it's also known to occasionally be a dud.

VC Friday: Climbing turtles

Posted Mar 16th 2007 1:10PM by Alisha Karabinus
Filed under: News, Virtual Console

Another week and another round of old school games for your weekend enjoyment. This time, there's some variety, so we'll hope that everyone who is so inclined can find something worth playing. As a special bonus, they're all toward the lower end of Virtual Console pricing, which isn't bad, either. Any of these tickle your proverbial fancy?

  • Ice Climber (NES) -- 500 Wii points
  • Splatterhouse (TurboGrafx) -- 600 Wii points

A handful of new NES titles are destined to hit the VC today at their usual time of 9am PST. With all three being solid titles from the Nintendo Entertainment System's line-up of games, we suspect we'll be forced to give each and every one a download. The details for each game are:
  • Kid Icarus - NES - 1 player - 500 Wii Points
  • Ice Climbers - NES - 1-2 players - 500 Wii Points
  • Kirby - 1 player - 500 Wii Points
Will you be joining us in giving these a download today?
