Just wanted to say thanks for this! Great work!!

Excellent work on this, very cool!

Yeah after seeing that newest clip on TSN.ca, this "94" mode actually looks like garbage, but with sweet blue ice. EA are pure marketing, nothing more. Why didn't they put out a simple downloadable version for $15 of the real '94, even if you can't have real player names, just let us edit them. I'd pay $100 probably, especially if it had online play. They're just really dumb I guess? Dear EA, my wallet thanks you...you have finally admitted you can't complete with your own 20 year old game!

Now that you mention it, I tried Genesis Plus again today, and all I get is a black screen! No games will load, I don't get anywhere. Not sure when that started happening. Generator stills works properly. Very Weird.

That sounds pretty awesome...anyone have a current download link? Rapidshare or any of the free sites maybe? thx.

Hi Jeff. My brother and I have Macs, and tried playing online with Genesis Plus and Generator, but didn't get very far. We were able to get connected over the internet (I should try a local network game sometime), but the games fell out of sync pretty much right away. While I was skating around in NHL94, the other end was in the replay menu...I didn't try SNES though. Hope you have better luck. Welcome to the forum.

I think this project looks amazing! And using the SegaCD version is great (music, etc). Hope this sees the light of day, but I can understand it's a ton of work!

Thanks for the release, I love this!

Great job, clockwise, can't wait to play it! Amazing stuff all you folks are doing...I always wonder if people at EA have ever seen any of this stuff? Probably blow their minds...

Hope this is still being worked on...it looks amazing! Finally got the original Sega CD version working on my GP2X, so now I can enjoy it anywhere! Anyways, goog luck getting it finished, looks like a major project!

Awesome ROM Mack...you're the man! (Do people still say that?)

"Player Skates: 1 point for Genesis"... Still gets me everytime. You go, Clockwise! Can't wait to try this rom out!

Looks like an awesome ROM! Can't wait!

Just wanted to keep this thread alive. Not sure if replacing sounds is possible, but man, that'd be awesome. Although the siren is pretty classic, no harm having a different ROM with all kinds of updated sounds. Genesis sounds are all synthetic, so I don't think you could just replace them with an actual audio sample...it would have to resampled down to a tiny amount of data to fit in the ROM, for one thing, but I don't think the game plays 'samples' anyways, more like 'instruments', if you know what I mean. Like the difference between MIDI and mp3s. The game has 'sound language', and the sound engine reads and 'renders' the noise you hear. I think anyways, I don't have any concrete to back this up with or anything. Reminds me of when my brother and I were kids...we tried replacing the sounds in "Superstar Ice Hockey" on the Amiga. We could open the sounds in some weird format in Audio Master III, and play them, but replacing them didn't seem to work. We wanted to change the slap shot sound (a tiny 'click') to a shotgun sound. LOL.

HI, love the new ROM, thanks for all the work! I just saw this bug for the first time, but I was playing the July25th roster update from last year, so perhaps that's a bug from the original game code?

Mack, you are my new hero! I've been checking your site pretty much every day this month, and now it's here! Can't wait to load this up on my GP2X...my thumbs will never forgive me! LOL, clockwise! The J.D. add is great, menus & logos look awesome and I've only played a couple games so far...Oilers vs Canes, game 8... I really appreciate all the work that must have gone into this, well worth it if you ask me! Keep yer stick on the ice...

Cool vid Clockwise. Sick passing!

Nice job Xstioph, thanks for this!

Hi MacSlezky! I'm not sure I'm reading you correctly...Is your Mac running OS9 or OSX? I'm running OSX, and having no problems with my gamepad. I'm using a PS2 gamepad, hooked to a PlayStation2 gamepad-to-USB converter that I got at Radio Shack. All the buttons and analog sticks work perfectly. I'm using Genesis Plus (from that link Red posted), and SNES9X. Also useful to install Richard Bannister's Emulator Enhancer, which adds gamepad support and a ton of other useful features (at the bottom of this page): Richard Bannister's Emulators If you're running OS9, I would Google "inputsprocket OS 9" and see if you can find any help. I'm not too familiar with OS9, I only switched from Windows XP a year ago when I bought my Mac Mini. As far as online play, there doesn't seem to be a Mac version of Kaillera, so I think online play is limited to local networks (no internet play). That's too bad. Hope this helps, OddyOh

Woops, I'm sorry, yes you are correct. Genesis Plus and Generator both work in OSX. But both of them do not save my sports games properly. Very weird. I noticed on my Windows machine the emulator creates ".sav" files...the Mac emulators do not do this. That's the problem I guess. I did try those other two OS9 emulators, but they're basically slow and unusable. Guess I'm stuck with the SNES version for now. Thanks anyways

Thanks for that link Red. Unfortunately, those only work in "Classic" OS 9 or earlier, and look like they've been discontinued. Still, worth a shot though.

Hi all, just stumbled across this great website last week, and I haven't been off it for more than 8 hours since! What a fantastic resource for all of us NHL94'aholics. Anyway, to my problem: I'm running Genesis Plus on my Mac Mini PPC (not Intel, yet!), OSX 10.4. And for some cruel reason, I can't seem to save my progress of any kind in my favourite games, NHL94, for example. I've tried several different copies of the game, especially the ones with 2005-06 rosters from this site (the whole reason I want to play again!). Anyway, most of my sports games cannot save...most often the game just crashes, even taking the emulator down completely. For example, I can't enable User Records in the NHL94 main menu. My controller won't stop on that option, just goes right past it. Another example is when I play a playoff game, once it returns to the main menu, I can't continue the playoff, and it sets the teams to Anaheim vs Anaheim...bizarre. However, I tried a couple other games, and they load and save fine...Shining Force II and Sensible Soccer, for example. Yet NBA Live or Madden do not. So weird. Anyways, I have a windows computer at my work, so I tried the same ROMs on there, and they load and save exactly as they should. It must be a problem with my emulator, right? If the same files work on Windows but not Mac? Any helpful ideas (besides buy a PC!) would be appreciated. I'm also contacting the author of the emulator, hopefully he can help. Just thought I'd check here and see if anyone else has seen this behaviour, since everybody here plays it. And since it's my first post: favourite way to score is the one timer, it's endlessly satisfying when it works...failing that, triple deke, baby! Thanks, OddyOh
