The Ice Climbers are one playable Popo and one computer-controlled Nana (with "Tails AI"). Four players at once playing Ice Climbers means that there are four playable Popos with "Nana" AIs that the game has to handle independently. On top of that, each one has to be rendered by the game's graphic processing.
It's definitely technical issues ):
The "trick" they used to make Duck Hunt work is that the duck, at no point separates himself from the dog model - they are actually rendered as one character onscreen the whole time. If you notice very, VERY closely in people's screenshots of DHD, you'll notice that the duck's feet are actually part of the dog's texture.
