The summit? The summit of what? If you must know, I suppose it’s the summit of Icicle Mountain. And I guess there are vegetables there after all.In other words, it’s an Ice Climber stage.At first glance, it appears to be a normal glacial peak. But after you fight for a while...A pop! A crack! It’s breaking?!Th-the terrain is sliding downhill!It’s finally arrived at the sea. And with a splash, too!Hmm. Talk about hectic. And rumor has it, you can’t get careless once you’ve reached the sea.The polar bear is pushing the iceberg deeper!A fish leaps out of the water!I feel like I’ve seen that fish before somewhere... Where could it have been?

Beautiful!
I suppose you could only have mountains or mountain summits when it comes to the Ice Climbers. Or ice mazes and stuff...
Again, beautiful, blending things from Nintendo games that never had a deep story individually.

Nice! An Ice Climbers stage I won't hate!

It'll be nice to have a real battle, instead of a survival test, on an Ice Climbers stage.

We sure knew the Northern Lights / aurora in the Autumn Conference trailer is part of the stage of Popo and Nana.

Apparently even Icicle Mountain is suffering from Global Warming! =P
Also, I believe Oiram Repus is having a nice penguin dinner, instead of helium balloons connected to people.

Kirby's wearing a Popo hat! I'm starting to think that the team JUST ironed out Kirby's Swallow attack in development or something, since we haven't seen Kirby wearing any Copy Abilities until just recently. Also, I am really liking this stage! It's neat!

Quite a nice looking stage and as Capt Walrus said, an IC stage that is now a real battle instead of a survival stage. It's good to see the IC polar bear on the stage as well and the BF fish is quite an interesting cameo. It's also nice to see a stage that has a one way stage transformation/transistation and another stage with water that you can swim in. EDIT:Noticed some more things In this image you can see a cloud near the bottem left and the top right which look like platforms The lower left metal platform (on a angle but straight in all the other image's) is a trapdoor platform like the one's in the Icicle MT stage in SSBM.

Does it mean...? No, it couldn't... could it? My prediction: Playable Balloon Fighter of some description! ;D
This stage is actually really cool. When I saw it was just the summit of Icicle Mountain, it didn't really do much for me - but it snaps and plummets into the ocean?! And you get attacked by Balloon Fighter fish?! That's the coolest gimmick in any of the stages so far! ;D

Does it mean...? No, it couldn't... could it? My prediction: Playable Balloon Fighter of some description! ;D Ha, no way. If Balloon Fighter is a character, that means he gets his own franchise, which means he gets his own stage. And if he gets his own stage, then the Balloon Fighter fish would be THERE instead of having to settle for a cameo on an Ice Climber stage. If anything, I'd say this deconfirms the Balloon Fighter franchise having any sort of major involvement in Brawl. But by major, I mean character and/or stage. A Balloon Fighter assist trophy is totally possible, and I think it's practically guaranteed that The Summit will have Balloon Fighter music as an alternate track.

This stage could be both an Ice Climber and Balloon Fight stage ;D
Can't blame me for having hope! Awesome hope, for awesome characters.

Don't see no condor on this stage though, so I hope it's an Ice Climber AT or has some involvement in their Final Smash. Then again the DOJO page for the Animal Crossing stage shows nothing of balloons with items so it might fly around at the The Summit after all.
And I guess this is more or less the 'Ice Top' stage that didn't make Melee.
