Species Condor
First appearance Ice Climber (1985)

The Condor is an enemy from the 1985 vertical-platforming game Ice Climber. The Condor is a large orange bird that appears at the end of each level, flying around the mountain's summit; in Bonus Games, one of the Ice Climbers must jump up and grab the Condor in order to progress. Due to the intro of Ice Climber showing the Condor flying away with a vegetable in its talons, it can be considered the main antagonist of the game.

Game Appearances[]

Ice Climber DS[]

Condor is the main villain of Ice Climber DS. His larger role in the story is unclear.

Condor is a major villain in Balloon Bomber. In the game, he teams up with the G.A.P. Wizard to defeat the Balloon Fighter and the Ice Climbers.

Ice Climber 2[]

In Ice Climber 2, the Condor serves as the main antagonist. In addition to the original orange Condor, Ice Climber 2 features five other coloured Condors, which also must be fought by the Ice Climbers throughout the game.

Jake's Super Smash Bros.[]

The Condor makes an appearance in Jake's Super Smash Bros. alongside the Ice Climbers. While the latter appear as playable characters, the Condor instead makes a minor appearance as part of their entrance animation, carrying them onto the stage before flying off. The Condor also appears during the Ice Climbers' Final Smash, Iceberg, though unlike in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate its appearance here is purely cosmetic.

Trophy Description[]

Condor
The Condor is a mischievous fellow - always stealing the Ice Climbers' vegetables and taking them to the tops of the mountain it lives on... that's probably why Popo and Nana took up mountain climbing to begin with. Not only does every game of Ice Climber begin with the Ice Climbers watching the Condor carry a vegetable up to the mountain's summit, it also mocks them by flying around them once they reach the top. It's certainly not surprising when Popo and Nana grab onto the Condor at the end of a Bonus Game... only to be brought back to the base of another mountain.
