The publisher announced the date on September 16. Crazy Climber is an action game Nichibutsu released in 1986 for 8-bit home consoles. Players scale a skyscraper while avoiding falling objects and obstacles that include Obstructors, iron balls, and gorillas, and clear the game by reaching the rooftop. The Console Archives version adds save and load anywhere, plus button and screen customization. Only the Japanese version of the main game is included, and the in-game text is in English only. The release is a single-player title and the newest addition to the Console Archives line. Hamster produces the Console Archives series.","whyItMatters":"Console Archives leans on save states and remapping to make 1980s arcade-era ports playable on modern hardware, so the value here rests on those features rather than on the 1986 game itself.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe port preserves the original 1986 Nichibutsu release rather than rebuilding it, and the store listing carries a note that only the Japanese version of the main game is included, with in-game text in English only.
