NHL Slapshot

That was the peak of NHL, everything was good in this title. I miss those days.

I owned this game way back in the past and I had remembered how fun it was. But I sold my Nintendo Wii and I traded this game in as well and never looked back. I had bought a Wii U but it sat in storage for almost 5 years in Calgary because I was hoping to move back there someday thinking the oil and gas bust was temporary but it never did improve out **** days of money growing on trees was done out there. After the storage company kept raising prices on me thinking I’m never going to return and it was free money for them. I finally went and got all my **** soon as I hooked up my Wii U..I remembered that you could play Wii games and thought I’d pick up a few at the pawn shop. I was browsing their 1$ selection(yes..that’s right 1$ selection) and what do you know..there it was..wayne Gretzky’s nhl slapshot. Even though some sports games like NHL number titles are just updated rosters with very little gameplay difference..some titles feel like experimental titles and this was the case for this game. I find it’s more arcade and fast paced And not bogged down by simulation like other titles. A game has to be fun. This game is incredibly fun because it’s pick up and play and the gameplay and graphics still are great to this day. Sure I own all the latest nhl titles and threes and ones are a blast to play with friends. But when it comes to beer or whatever..games like nhl hitz 2003, nhl arcade, and nhl slapshot..these games get more playtime just because they are fun and competitive. I’ll be honest..realistic games aren’t fun to me. I recently downloaded dirt 2.0 and my god,..what a nightmare.,sure if your a simulation freak then go right ahead..I found it boring and no fun..I don’t like where it takes weeks or months just to understand the depth **** I don’t want to shallow either but like I was **** you want a great arcade sports title to fit in your Wii library..pick this one up..I think you’ll enjoy it.
