It wasn't fault of Rosalina & Luma nor Duck Hunt that the Ice Climbers were cut, Sakurai has expalined that they couldn't work properly in the 3DS version of the game and that they didn't have much priority since there's no plan for a new Ice Climber game, but apparently they were going to be in the Wii U version
