About this product

Product Information

Try your skills in four-on-four hockey with Nintendo Ice Hockey. While it follows most of the rules of conventional ice hockey, the NES version opens up the rink with only four skaters and a goalie on each team instead of the usual five skaters. This also makes it run much faster on the NES console and gives you more space on the ice to make plays and score goals. It's especially fun if you happen to have someone to control a second team.Like the real sport, the teams switch ends after each period, and there is an option for a fourth period of sudden-death overtime followed by a shootout if necessary. You build your team from a mix of light, medium, and heavy skaters, and then play from a top-down view. Other features include real ice hockey calls like icing and power plays. Stage games against the computer or beat your friends in your own hockey league. You'll love organizing your own 8-bit Nintendo version of the NHL.Building on the 1981 Atari game, NES put more players on the ice than any other 8-bit title. The programmers added a ton of charm to the game, too. An animation of stadium personnel cleaning the surface plays whenever there's a break in the action in the middle of games. If a player fights with another player for the puck, then everyone else will join in. Just like in real life, if a stick infraction occurs, such as tripping or slashing, then a player is sent off to the penalty box. Having the ability to select different players adds a layer of strategy when starting new games and means no two games are ever the same.The first man who puts on blades is extremely fast and good at face-offs. He has a lower rating when it comes to defense. The second man to skate is more balanced, and the third is a heavyweight who is slow but can knock anyone else down. You'll have to decide which skaters to start in each round of hockey you play. The search for the perfect teammates to put the puck in the goal is a big part of the fun.There are a few interesting regional differences in the different versions of Nintendo Ice Hockey. The team roster lineups in all versions of the game feature the same players. They also both include the USA, Czechoslovakia, Canada, Poland, and the USSR as selectable countries to play as or against. However, the PAL and North American versions of the Ice Hockey game include Sweden as a sixth country. The original Japanese Famicom game included Japan. Just like in the real sport, this video game declares whoever has the highest score the winner.

    Item is as described. It was very carefully packed. Components were wrapped in bubble wrap and the box within a box was padded and secured with wadded paper. Seller answered my questions on condition by taking extra photos and messaging them to me. Thank you seller, I love it and am excited to use it!

    Item Came Two Days Earlier Than Expected, So Thats Great. The Game Looks Fantastic & Plays Well On My Wii Console With No Problems/Malfunctions. Package Was Good, But The Case Came Damaged. Possibly Could Be From Mail Carrier. Item Did Arrive As Described & Was Worth The Price Fasure.

    Excellent overall experience! Mario 64 came bubble wrapped and undamaged and the item was shipped quicker than expected. Item was exactly as described and is indeed an authentic cart. The price was good for an authentic N64 cart! Will buy from this seller again!

    Awesome game

    This game is very addictive and fun, also challenging. The music is great. You can play it against the computer with different difficulties or you can play it against a friend, which is more fun :)

  • Classic

    Always liked the option of picking team mates. Gives variety within the team. AI seems to be very competitive at this time. lost first game 13-1 against USSR. Graphics are good if it was the 80's again.
