Here's how to get NHL 2002(PC) running on a modern PC with Windows 10/11: Extract the attached zip file to your PC Right-click the Setup.exe file in the Setup folder, go to the Compatibility tab and disable the Windows 98 compatibility, then click Apply. Right click the Setup.exe file again and run as administrator. Go through the various setup screens. When prompted, add the registry key found in the attached zip file in this post. Move the patched dx7z.dll from the website below into the main NHL 2002 directory you installed the game onto (i.e. C:\Program Files (x86)\EA SPORTS\NHL 2002). Don't try to move it to the zipped file directory. When asked to override the existing file click yes. You may also need to move the NHL 2002 Fixed Executable from the website below into the main NHL 2002 directory and override the existing one. Lastly, right-click on the NHL 2002 application and run as administrator Here's a helpful site that contains some needed patch files to fix graphics glitches/crashes: https://classicgamefixes.wixsite.com/home/nhl-2002#:~:text=First%2C download the official EA SPORTS patch for the game.&text=Then%2C unzip this fixed executable,your NHL 2002 game directory.&text=This combination should allow you,and Run as Administrator modes. If you want to use a gamepad like a snes one you would just need to plug it in before loading the game. Within the game itself you can click on Play Now and at the bottom you'll see a controller icon. Click that and you should see Keyboard and Gamepad. Click Gamepad and you can map the controls to whatever buttons you want. When done click Save Layout/Settings) NHL 2002.zip

@halifax I put together a team ranking list to share with everyone. I'm thinking of running a one-off league with this ROM at some point. WHA Rosters.xlsx WHA Rosters - Google Sheets.pdf

Looks like Sourceforge removed the input plugin from their site. Had to find it on another site.

Here's a list of links containing the ROMs I've created over the years: All-Time Rosters(ATR) ROM - Contains the greatest hockey players from each franchise found in the basic 94 ROM NHL 92-00 ROMs - Contains the rosters from each game from 92-00 in the 94 'shell' game 3v3 Pond Hockey - Custom ROM with 3v3 forwards where any player(F or D) can play F(contains both 2-minute and 1-minute penalty versions) World Cup '96 - Contains the World Cup '96 rosters League-specific ROMs: SNES Salary Cap S1 - Custom league from Summer '21 where coaches picked their own team within a set salary cap SNES Salary Cap S2 - Season 2 of the above ran in Fall '21 ATR Salary Cap - Used in the All-Time Rosters season from Summer '22 ATR Player Draft - Custom league where coaches drafted players from the All-Time Rosters(ATR) ROM in Fall '22

I've compiled a list of all-time SNES Draft League(SDL) player stats, league winners, and personally awarded players/coaches when I was bored at work last week. It also includes a player lookup tool to view past stats. Please note: SDL 12 A/B were voted on by the league. All others were judged by me personally based on stats. I may retroactively create polls on previous season winners so it's a group effort. This is a read-only document but you can download a copy and edit it locally. I will do my best to update it after each season. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hAgc9O5rm8U0q9Nugunk2xBXq1vyYi80R6ZsNITuMJY/edit?usp=sharing

I've compiled a list of all-time SNES Classic player stats, league winners, and personally awarded players/coaches when I was bored at work last week. It also includes a player lookup tool to view past stats. Please note: There were no player stats recorded on the site between 2008 Spring and 2012 Fall. This is a read-only document but you can download a copy and edit it locally. I will do my best to update it after each Classic. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TduzmJBMq2-Iw7mNfAun5bmVMI8v56LP48dVI8nksBQ/edit?usp=sharing

Hey Everyone, I'm running a league using my 3v3 ROM(3 skaters per team) for SNES. It will most likely be one division and everyone plays each other 1 home/1 away. Penalties will be on, except offsides. Penalties will be 1-minute instead of 2-minutes (thanks to @McMarkis) with manual goalies and 5-minute periods. All skaters, including defensemen, are selectable at LW-C-RW. Since there are technically no defense positions, d-control will not work. Let me know if you're interested. Draft will most likely be next week(week of 3/17) and will be based on reverse ELO. The default lines are below but they can all be edited: Confirmed coaches: @kidswasted @koke_45 @Mooney @McMarkis @Stantonator @dcicon5148 @noodles @Bob Kudelski @om94 @annatar @Tickenest @jenhanios @TheWiz84 @Triple A @dangler @niuhuskie224 @TheProfessor pond_hockey_nhl94_1min.smc

This is incredible. I wonder if slapshots will be more successful now.

Hey Everyone, I decided to make a World Cup '96 ROM containing the 8 teams who played(CAN, CZE, FIN, GER, RUS, SLO, SWE, and USA). These teams replace STL through ASW but the jerseys and banner colors are updated. The attributes for NHL players come straight from NHL 97. All others I used my best judgement based on WC statistics. I didn't bother to check for non-NHL player weights, #'s, or handedness. Those guys are mostly bench players anyways. I included Pavel Bure on RUS who was injured for the real-life tournament. Even though goalies don't matter in SNES I included Hasek on CZE who declined to play. I implemented @McMarkis goalie pull hack(press L+R buttons to pull goalie during live play) as well as 1-minute penalties hack. I also enabled D-control to be on as default. Every team is neutralized, as far as home/away/pp/pk, just like SDL. In order to fit the number of players on each team I had to trim first names to a first initial. Therefore, the player cards could not match up. I still ran the player card updater so at least everyone is one of the stock images instead of an incorrect NHL player. Center ice logos were also updated to the all-star team NHL logo. I've attached the attributes as well as the ROM. Please let me know if you run into any issues while playing the ROM. Enjoy!

This is awesome to have! Great work.

Another great hack from the legend!

Added 1-minute penalty version to the original post. Big thanks to @McMarkis

Added an additional version with 1-minute penalties to the original post. HUGE thanks to @McMarkis
