"You can comfortably do hockey things"
As someone who cannot for the life of me understand hockey, that is probably the best way to describe any of these games.
Never knew you were a Minnesota guy, but hearing you say the word hockey 40 times in the last 10 minutes I can't believe I didn't pick it up before!
I think "Hit the Ice" is more of an answer to "Arch Rivals" rather than "NBA Jam."
That’s bullshit and you know it.
No it’s more of an answer to NBA Jam rather than Arch Rivals
@@firestriker3580 did NBA jam even exist when hit the ice came out?
@@eyesofnight Arch Rivals 1989 arcade. Hit the ice arcade 1990, snes 1993 February. Lastly, NBA Jam April 1993 Arcade. So, Hit the ice was directly inspired by Arch Rivals and was out for Snes before NBA Jam even appeared in the arcade.
@@TheFoodieCutie understood. After all, Midway themselves made it, after Pigskin 621 and Arch Rivals. They just collaborated with Taito for hardware's sake
I absolutely loved the brawling that you do with NHL Stanley Cup. You can literally nail 5 players in a row and the AI will get pissed and come after you and then if it escalated then a fight broke out.
And the HIPCHECKS LOL
In Brett Hull hockey, if you max out the score 99-99 then you can soft lock the game. The score can't roll over and the game can't end in a tie, so the game can't end. I'm reaching back into childhood memories for this little factoid, so, confirmation required.
Wow !!
Who was that patient to discover that ? I found that game boring even for its time
@@Davidjon1946 kids do weird shit, man. I was a kid once. Uhm... sorry?
NHL 94 tha best game ever, Love that game! still play it today with my 1991 SNES! I use to rent it! at the movie market! but it was impossible to rent it! too many reserves! toke me forever to rent that damm game!! one-time got me into tha game also !! +
Good times. 👍👍
94 the absolute best hockey video game ever made. (Hitz 2002 was decent and I think NHL 2001 or 2002 whatever was pretty good too) 94 will always have a place in my heart (pours one out for the North Stars, Nordiques, Whalers and Jets)
@@HKgaming86 Everyone would love another Hitz. Also I loved the 2K series in the mid 2000's. I think it was 2006 that was my favourite.
NHL 94 was by far my favorite hockey game during the 16bit era. I had NHLPA 93 for the Sega Genesis and NHL 94 for SNES. From 95 and up, the game was just too fast. I remember we used to rent videogames at the video store every week or two. That was good old days. From NHL '97, I move to the PC version which was the first 3D polygon hockey game that I like. Nice video as always!
In the nhl Stanley cup game there was a glitch that if you skated down the middle and then dumped the puck at the center face off circle it would fly over the goalies head every time.
Yes we called it the "x move" as you dumped the puck with that button
that worked in NHL 99 about half the time on PC as well
nhl stanley cup is my all time favorite hockey game
It what I played growing up
Mutant league hockey for genesis and blades of steel for nes are my favorite classic hockey games. Love your channel dude.
Dusjin H
Blades of steel is cool
Everyone loves NHL 96 because the intro with the "Get Ready For This" song hahah
Great Video. Well Done. Really good to see retro sports content.
Great video my friend. Back in the day, I'm nearly certain I logged over 500 hours on NHLPA '93 on the SNES. A lot of ppl don't know this, but there are 2 variants to the '93 version of SNES. I used to own both and even shared the pics over at Digital Press so they could add it in there database.
What was the difference
@@eyesofnight just the case housing the game. It may be a small difference.. but it’s great knowledgeable to have for SNES collectors.
5:57 NHL Stanley Cup had a goal glitch: take your player and go towards the goalie straight on from the center. right before the blue line, dump the puck towards the net and the goalie will come out of his crease and the puck will sail over him and light the lamp.
FMLandry37 it was weird lol
YEEEESSSSSSS! 👏👏👏👏👏I was hoping somebody brought this up. Made that game playable and fun
Cause the computer didn't know!
And because of that cheat my friends and I agreed to never use the "dump" move. There's a similar cheat in NHL 9x series that we banned. Skate the puck in to the corner, circle around toward the net and skate through the crease. The goalie freezes for a moment and then heads to the far post as you cross the crease. Pull the puck back and jam it in on the short side.
Mode 7 really does shine in sports games. Anything with a field always looks and moves really cool
I remember playing NHL 94 and 95 back in the day, great games and great fun, and they kept it going on the N64 with NHL 99 which is one of my all time favorite games.
I dont even want to know the amount of my childhood spent playing NHL 95. Specifically Pens vs. Flyers no goalies. Just the best.
We had fun with those games in so many creative ways. My buddy and I created an entire game around trying to hit the post at the other end with the goalie in shootout mode.
I must be the only oddball who used to love Street Hockey '95 growing up. My favorite characters were Woo, Power Child, and Sweathead. I even beat that freaking game, the final game was at a power plant and the losing team had toxic sludge dumped on them. Harsh...
tttthhhaank you. Street Hockey '95 was amazing. Still is. I'll rep that game forever.
Dude your videos are epic man!!! Nice job bringing back to my child hood!
I remember "NHL 95" kicked ass.(For SNES) The great intro theme music was unforgettably awesome.
Nah!
NHL 2002 on the game boy advance is a terrific port and travel companion. Hours will melt away.
+EarthBounder89 Damn, forgot to mention this! I own it and it's awesome, having the expansion teams is really nice
please dont stop ur reviews on snes games, i really enjoy this channel, great job, and PLEASE, more snes game reviews
NHL Stanley Cup was my favorite. Though if you play it on the highest difficulty, with penalties, you'll either be on the power play all the time, OR get so aggravated with the characters checking you that it will play on a super fast 3 on 3 no holds barred mode where anything goes, since the box is full.
When I play NHL 94 with penalties on I always wind up on the PK all game. Which I like as it makes it really easy to dump and chase from your own end and get a lot of short handed goals without icing. Or I just take control of the goalie and ram an opponent, it often results in an interference call on them.
My best friend and i would play for weed! We were like 18 and his parents would go away every weekend and we would buy a “Quarter” and the loser had to “roll up”. Only bad thing is by Saturday we needed another bag! He usually played with The Blackhawks and me the Rangers.
That sounds nice, do you do this full time now?
I like how you went straight to the Genesis. Mad props. Your videos are fire.
NHL 94 and 96 were my favs. Stanley cup scoring was tough. However I do remember you could flip the puck from the red or blue line and it would go over the goalies head and into the net everytime lol. Scoring normal though was impossible unless you used a one timer. Great vid bro
Was about to ask about Mutant League Hockey but looked it up and saw its Genesis only. Another old 2D Hockey Game I really like is Blades of Steel for NES. Ok, Ill stop talking about non SNES games now.
I really enjoy your channel keep up the good work.
Loved playing Hit the Ice back in the day.
Great to see Retro Sports Game videos.
cool video.. i love hockey and have always loved hockey games
i got 93, 96, and 97 for $5 for Genesis at a flea market this weekend feeling pretty good about myself
LOVED these games
Take a moment to appreciate what an amazing photo that is on the cover of nhl 94 in the thumbnail. Insane photo.
People don't remember Blades of Steel but that was the best hockey game on NES because you got to actually fight and control the fights. As for SNES NHL '94 changed everything and is the most important hockey game and probably the best sports game when it was launched.
Top 3 SNES Hockey games
3. 9:37 Wayne Gretzky and the NHLPA All-Stars
2. 2:22 Hit the Ice
1. 3:15 NHL 94-98 by EA
Me and my brothers played the shit out of NHL '95 for the Genesis! Watching those clips brought back some memories haha
this is awesome! thanks for the vid. id have to say though, i think nhl 98 might be the best one. ive been playing them all recently (94 through 98) and i think they finally got everything right with their last effort IMHO!
The best is playing NHL 94 on emulator so you can play with updated teams and rosters. They also have ROMs of the old WHA teams from the 70's. It is fantastic playing NHL 94 with the Golden Knights and with players like Ovechkin. Can't recommend it enough.
With NHL 98 on the SNES, i have ran into quite a few glitches with disappearing skaters and frozen goalies. It doesnt happen every game but it has happened a few times. Other than that tho, the game is great.
9:35 - "...which is not BAH" 😂
Street Hockey 95 was awesome!
Hit the Ice is the hockey Arch Rivals. 2 on 2 Open Ice was the hockey NBA Jam but it was never ported to 16-bit consoles.
My first game was NHL Stanley Cup, and It made me in love with hockey. It's funny how a game with a problematic camera can be that entertaining.
I played the shit out of it
@@EndoFury1 me too
This dude makes great videos. Idgaf about hockey. Nobody growing up in Ky in the 80s-90s did, but his videos are so good I watch all of them, regardless of subject matter. Glad I found this channel. 😷
Good video. A +
My friends and I used Wayne Gretzky as more of a fighting game than a hockey game.
That street hockey games menu is pretty funny lol
I wasn’t even a hockey fan as football/basketball were my sports, but I played NHL ‘94 for years because it was such a fun and entertaining game to play. To this day I’ve never really gotten into another hockey game.
Only one I played was NHL 94 that was fun, I could play that today and still have a blast. Doing the one timers was so fun
I loved Wayne Gretzky and the NHLPA All-Stars. It was so much fun but I don't remember if the teams were licensed.
I cant remember which ea nhl i had for snes but there was an exploit where the goalie would get stuck on the post when you would wrap around, me and my brother would position our defence behind the net and let each other shoot rather than cover the shot lol
Good idea for a list you kinda mentioned in this one.....
Games that are a drag single player but are great when playing multiplayer
You could cheese the AI so badly in Stanley Cup. If your goalie made a save you could walk him out to the blue line and he was basically invincible, then make a slap shot all the way across across the ice, and the other goalie would only stop it maybe 50% of the time. My goalie was the league’s leading scorer by the end of the season 😂
Man the NHL was insanely popular in the 90s!! What the hell happened?
NHL94 was amaizing for hockey
As great as NHL 94 was, I agree that 96 was the best. Also, Street Hockey 95 was awesome. There was a mode where you could get an extra point for jumping knee first into the net. The controls are hard to figure out at first, but it is a super fun game once you get the hang of it.
Love that you tossed in stuff like Super Hockey '94. That's a goofy game. I collect hockey games so I own that and play it on the Retron - you can score from across the other end of the ice lol. I actually like the PAL release of Stanley Cup (just "Super Hockey") for its goofy fantasy team names. But in all honestly, NHL 96 is probably my fave. Skip ahead past the SNES and NHL 2002 for GBA has the 16-bit engine with all the current teams (sans Winnipeg) if you really want a more up-to-date experience...
+weekendroady Funny you should bring up NHL 2002, I just did a video on that one last week
I agree about NHL '96. I think it's my favorite. It has just the right amount of gameplay quickness and smooth controls. '95 is a close second. '93 and '94 feel clunky and lethargic after playing later ones, along with less controls. In '97 and '98 they started going overboard with how fast they are. Not that I mind fast gameplay, but it's just way too easy to avoid opponents in these ones, even against a 2nd player. Plus in '97 you can score almost everytime by passing the puck at the opposing goalie, which can be stopped by switching to manual goalie, but not by the computer opponent. The people who always include '94 on lists of greatest sports games remind me of people who list Tecmo Bowl, as if Tecmo Super Bowl doesn't. Basically people who are barely familiar with these games/systems, don't have actual opinions of their own, and are stealing from other people's half-assed lists.
Sega Genesis was my sports console. SNES was my everything else console.
NHL 95 & 96 were the games i played most.
Wasn't there an EA NHL before 93? That is what I grew up playing. 93 added blood on the Genesis, I remember that.
Yes, Genesis/MD had "NHL Hockey" with Glenn Healy of all people on the cover
Jeremy Roenick on NHL 93 was unstoppable
Unless he goes up against Bo Jackson
Would love to see a vid like this for the Genesis and NES hockey games (although I think there's only like 3 NES hockey games)
I got NHL 94 for like 9 bucks CIB, and I love playing it all the time
I liked Blades of Steel (NES) and that Gretzky one on N64, which I can't remember the name of. It was an arcade port, if I recall correctly. Wasn't into sports games during the SNES/Genesis era (outside NBA Jam!).
Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey?
there was also a 98 version that allowed you to be the North Stars, Nordiques, Jets and Whalers if you put a code in. Other than that it's the same game.
and an Olympics reskin that Treyarch helped make...also the same.
Breaking the glass with a hard shot in NHL 94. Good times.
I’m curious, but which versions of NHL 97 and 98 are better? The 16-bit versions on the SNES and Genesis, or the 32-bit versions on PS1 and Saturn?
I remember when NHL 94 came out, friends were upset they took out the blood.
In the Stanley Cup game, my friend played the Kings and it seems he'd score with Gretzky every time he's shoot on net...
I remember playing a game not shown here on SNES that was hyped huge and busted large where you played single player view. I think you missed one because it wasn't shown here. I think it was called "Stanley Cup" but never seen that horrible single image screen I was traumatized in seeing as at teenager.
5:57
I love NHL 96
NHL '94 is the best due to the "weight" of the checking and it is the only one that actually worked with the multitap. The later years it just doesn't work. Plus the sound effects got softer for some reason. Nice vid tho. 👍🏼🇨🇦🤗
I'm playing NHL 96-97-98 these last couple weeks I don't know which to keep. I like 96 because it's the last year of the Nordiques of Québec.
NHL 95 RANKED right up there with Ken GRIFFEY JR Baseball, the first one!!....as one of the best snes games for me...along with Tecmo SuperBOWL
I always prefered the SNES version of NHL 94. One reason I like it so much is because the teams didn't all look the same, their sprites were true to the real teams jerseys, whereas every game after that they all had the same template. The Leafs didn't have shoulder yokes in the late 90s dammit!
I do love NHL 96 though. I get hype everytime I hear that music. Pure 90s nostalgia right there.
GENESIS is pure action no slowdown like the snes
I loved Stanley Cup 😂 game was so good, I found an exploit were you shoot the puck over the goalie and it bounces back in front of the net. The goalie thinks it’s behind the net and goes around and you shoot it into the open goal. Hahaha
Good times
You could also dump rhe puck and it would go right over the goalies head and in if judged correctly. I tried to play normally most of the time, but it could get frustrating throwing 40 shots at some of the better goalies and losing 1-0.
Which version had the custom players/teams?? My brother and I had endless hours of fun with that one.
We were in college in 94, home on christmas break. my brother, friend and I would stay up until 4 or 5 am playing. My dad would get pissed because we were still up when he got up to go to work. i beat my brother and my brother yelled out, "fuck!" at 5 am. Dad kicked him out of the house into the snow-he didn't come back to the house until 6 years later-ahhhhh the memories
Still play this game legendary game one of the best sports video games I ever played love the piano music like real hockey 🏒 94 sega
After making videos on the Brett Hull Series, I can attest to it not being a good experience. Though, I think it was a nice canvas build from IF it got a few more games.
EA also did a NHL 94 mode in NHL 06, where you can play the original
NHL 94 on PC was my favorite
NHL 95 was my favorite with the create a player being introduced
95 was slow
nhl 96-98 games on the snes give me an uncanny feeling. when growing up i had a sega and the snes nhl games even though look about the same as the sega ones, they play completely different and most of the things that work on sega dont work on snes and vice versa.
Man, hit the Ice was so good !
heck, they're still pretty cool right now. Not in a million years snes drunk
I loved nhlpa can't remember the year and omg I played that like crazy and there was a glitch where you could do a rap around and always score lol
That was only on the much worse SNES version.
@@brucemckinlay9739 much worse or not I loved it lol
Grew up playing 94 in des moines!
NHL '98 is the epitome.
Blast processing!
NHL 96 brought back fighting but I like NHL 95 the most.
I like Blades of Steel.
NHL 94 was awesome & I still play today on an emulator . After a goal scored I enjoy seeing how many opposition players I can knock over , I think I managed before the cut out :) beating the all stars team whilst playing as Florida is as demanding as the game can get I guess but pretty easy to master . Did someone say there is an online league ?? well up for that !!
meant to say I managed 4 players knocked over
Nhl 96 is my favorite!! is there an F-Zero game vid??
NHLPA '93 and Mutant League Hockey are the best, NHL '94 was great too though
I remember EA Sports NHL-96 had a PC-version with their first try with 3D graphics (rink was 3D, players still 2D). I liked it because it was my first game ever on PC but the game play was very slow and dull compared to the old school 2D version.
You forget the key question: Does this game include Brass Bonanza? Seeing as you have a lot of Whalers video in the EA NHL part of the video, you obviously understand this. Do this day I'll argue for NHL 94 (or 95/96/97) as one of if not the best game of all time. Or they would be, if you actually could make Gretzky bleed.
Bring back the Whale!!!!
NHL 95 is my favorite, as it has the first "Full season" mode, and to my knowledge, it is the last season that features the Quebec Nordiques. *sniff sniff :(
I feel your pain, I was a North Stars fan
NHL 96 still featured the Nordiques, actually, even though they had already become the Colorado Avalanche before that season.
I apologise for the brick of text, but my theory is that it's because after the team moved, they announced their new name as the "Rocky Mountain Extreme"... which was then scrapped immediately afterwards, because nobody really liked it that much. (It was too 90s for the 90s, basically. :P) So then they had to come up with _another_ new identity; logo, uniforms, etc. all in the same summer, and this was going on while EA was finishing up NHL 96. This would've also been in the days before teams gave game devs the inside scoop on new uniforms for 100% realism, so in all likelihood EA just didn't _know_ what the team was gonna be called; my guess is this, maybe combined with them having to use the full, unused schedule from the lockout-shortened 1994-95 season in the game's season mode (which still had them in the Eastern Conference), is what led to them just keeping them as the Quebec Nordiques for one final year.
NHL 95 is my favourite too...the graphics are clearer then NHL 97...I think NHL 96/97 were the same game just updated rosters.Ah the days when we had to update our own rosters instead of the crap roster updates of today's NHL games.
Whalers fan here.😢
NHL 96 is the best snes hockey game! 95 introduced trading and creat a player while 96 has that plus bringing back fighting! 97 and 98 are roster updates so they are just as good as 96!
I got a Complete in Box Copy of NHL 94 at my game store for like 10 box. Worthe very penny.
I just recently bought NHL 96 and haven't started it yet. Hopefully it's good.
Grew up playing NHL '94 on SNES. Love that game. For some reason I can never get into the 95-98 style. I dunno the skating feels too fast and dekeing wasn't as simple. Personal preference I guess.
I've heard ALOT of serious gamers reffer to NHL94 as the best sports game ever made!
I actually like '98 best *because* it is faster.
I just accidentally bought 2 NHLPA 93 copies from my local game store because the one copy didn’t say 93 😂 I tried looking it up and couldn’t really find the one that says 93 on the top, it’s different version I guess maybe more rare? Anyone know about these two versions? One is marked EASN and one EA
I would love to see a robot futuristic hockey game. Where the robot looses limps instead of teeth. A hart hit spills bolts on the surface. This would be doable in this age. You can customize a robot team and so forth maybe add spray painted slogans you write on the robot such as your mamma was a snowblower. This would be fun and perhaps get a wider audience into hockey.
