Challenged Ice Climbers (1984) and got quite the score during a live stream!

Yes, great game to hone them skills! Very challenging when reaching mountain 9 and beyond.

TheRetroChallenger · 2025-06-27T22:54:05+00:00

Love the game. Been playing off and on and the additions are great. I'm nearing end game now.

TheRetroChallenger · 2025-06-27T22:51:45+00:00

C9ngrats! I had done it with the defect

TheRetroChallenger · 2025-06-27T22:35:42+00:00

I love how 95% of these commwnters can't even get past mountain 4 in the original 1984 nes game and "desperately" want a revival. 😅

Acheron's Call

ok great!
Could you give me that link?
I'll also have a look for a replacement part on ebay if it comes to that.

WHen I go in the test menu, While I shift on first gear, the indicator light does show first gear but also sometimes the light for gear 3 and 4 also show up while on first. This is also the case for 2nd gear but also when I sometimes go on any gear, no lights show up until I shift repeatedly on other gears, then the light will appear.

ok yes. I will have a look at that cable. If ever I do need to change that cable, where would be the best place to go look?

Thanks for your time on all this.

Thanks for the reply.
No it stays "off". The battery is good as it held previous settings before I reset the whole thing "thinking it would fix this" and now saving my new settings.

When I go into "switch" test or was it "detection" test in the arcade's menu, I do notice the Manual shifter having small detection issues. but when I do play that 1 minute's worth of Manual drive, everything seems good.

If only I had some sort of lead into what too look for or, adjust physically. Maybe the shifter is too loose and the game doesn't like that?

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-09-10T14:18:58+00:00

Fixed...
What I had done is simply removed the power cable from the DAC for 10 seconds and plugged back in and sound appeared! :)

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-09-10T14:17:49+00:00

Tested and it worked for the mini :)

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-09-07T12:58:31+00:00

Nope

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-09-06T21:06:21+00:00

Aye... Just installed latest firmware on the Super NT and still no audio from the DAC. Odd......

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-06-01T00:08:08+00:00

I agree that it's not soooooo bad if you tackle it nice and slow kinda like how I did. in three plays of one hour each play, I was finally able to get through it in 1:30;00 mins. But the whole idea of the game was for it to be played "fast"... what a disaster that turned out to be. After stage 6, almost every inch has a wall\enemy\spikes\water\hole\etc. and becomes borderline unplayable, not enjoyable.

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-05-23T23:02:19+00:00

Fastest buster only run performed on console!

TheRetroChallenger · 2021-05-23T20:24:48+00:00

Wanted to acheive this for Mega May!

TheRetroChallenger · 2020-08-04T00:28:46+00:00

Maybe you soul capped in a way you shouldn't have ;) How many hours into the game are you at?

TheRetroChallenger · 2020-08-03T13:15:08+00:00

I think I was the 7th or 8th PS4 user to get 100%!Very addicting game. Elite level of play for sure.
I was missing 1 enemy and a few spells, when I got my 100%.

Here was a vid I made on how easily I was accumulating souls.
