What a sad day when NHL95 came out.

What a sad day when NHL'95 came out.

The NHL'95 graphics for the players were worse.

The graphics for the fans in the seats around the rink were worse.

The gameplay was too fast.

Their legs were too long.

The instant replay was way too fast.

(What is with the big yellow penalty boxes?)

SNES NHLPA'93 had hard slap shots yet

EA decided not to have as hard of slapshots for SNES NHL'94.

Why? Who's fault is this?

EA WAKE UP AND MAKE THE ULTIMATE VERSION!!

Only little changes were needed like drop pass, block pass, block shot, fake pass and fake shot.

They should have brought back the blood and fighting like Blades of steel or Hit the ice.

They should have improved the face-offs with close in action like PS2 NHL HITZ PRO.

PS2 NHL HITZ PRO was a great game yet the manual goalie sucked and more deke goals should go in.

It looked like NHL HITZ PRO was going to have a future music setting where you could add a few of your favorite tunes

to play during play stoppages but MIDWAY SPORTS didn't even come out with another hockey video game.

I emailed MIDWAY SPORTS to inquire why they haven't come out with another hockey video game but I didn't get a response.

Thank You Mark Lesser for your Programming for Genesis NHL'94 because without you the SNES NHL'94 clone would not have been

made as great. I understand SNES NHL'94 Frames Per Second was lower than Genesis yet I think SNES NHL'94 gameplay doesn't look

like the guy is teleporting from one place to another at all because of the lower Frames Per Second. It looks nice and smooth.

The SNES NHL'94 FPS was 20 out of a max. 60. SNES NHL'95 was bumped up to 45 FPS but really do I notice the player and his

45 different postions that makes him move more smoothly no.

Mark Lesser I know your more proud of NHL'94 than of NHL'95 and look at this website so post a message or message me 1on1 so you can

explain why for the drastic software change.

Was it Rob Martyn, Scott Probin or Michael Brook bossing you around wanting these changes?

Was it Marketing telling you to change it up?

NHL'95 and NHL'96 are similar so why didn't you make NHL'95 similar to NHL'94?

I understand it's been 13 years since '94 and you can't go back in time and leave the NHL94 software the way it was but you can

bring back this great '94 software and reinventing it.

I know Mark Lesser you probably didn't give a rats ass about Super Nintendo NHL'94 but of course make a SNES version because I've played

Genesis and I just don't feel it. I think the SNES NHL'94 guys that copied your work and tweaking it did a great job.

Thanks SNES NHL94 Producer and Designer Michael Brook, Assistant Producers Scott Probin and Ken Sayler,

Executive Producer Scott Orr , Development Producer and Technical Director Rob Harris.

Thank You SNES NHL'94 Programmers Amory Wong , Robert White, Rod Reddekopp, Eric Kiss , Bill Fowler and David Galloway.

The SNES NHL'94 Graphic look great thanks Athena Baxevanakis, Laura Parr and Mike Smith .

SNES NHL'94 and NHL'95 is a clone of Genesis NHL'94 and NHL'95.

So the people that worked on the Genesis NHL'95 are to blame because the SNES guys just followed what the Genesis guys did.

Genesis NHL'95 Graphics:

Doug Wike, Lori Champney, Cynthia Hamilton, Ian House, Kendra Lammas, Alyson Markell and Terry Falls

The Marketing and Production people for NHL95 who wanted change so it didn't look like the same game but really made a bad decision.

The SNES NHL'95 Software Engineer that was working from the Programming that Mark Lesser made for NHL'95

died while working on the software for 6 months.

SNES NHL'95 Software Engineer: Jason Andersen didn't get any of his worked on software.

Jason Andersen: only had 4 months to complete the software work for SNES NHL'95.

The software was base on the new software made by Mark Lesser

SNES NHL'95 Software Engineer: Jonah Stich came in on the last month and helped

get it out the door.

Genesis NHL'95 Gameplay

You would think someone at EA would have changed back the gameplay for SNES NHL'96

but no they still kept the NHL'95 software and ran with it and they came out with the same kind

of crappy fast gameplay with bad graphics!!

Why didn't they use the '94 software and just change a few little things?

It looked like NHL'95 started from scratch and just couldn't get it right.

Thats whats so cool about these updated hacks. Its the NHL 95 that SHOULD have been! LOL

Funny Story

I loved NHL 94 SO much and I pre-ordered my 95 directly from an EA rep back when I worked at the computer store. (Babbage's) To my surprise I receivedt the game almost 2 months before it was released to the public! I was stoked.

Upon firing it up I was immediately disgusted. Some High School friends of mine caught wind that I had it early and wanted to buy it off me at any cost. I told em it sucked really bad, but they still wanted it. Sold it for $100 bucks to 2 dudes! Poor suckers. :D

At that time it seemed EA was making all the right moves. Know one ever thought they would ruin a great franchise. Definately a sad day when it was released.

I asked the guys later on in the week how they liked it. "Sold it for 70 bucks" they said.

I have to agree it's not as good as the previous versions but I still like it in it's own right. It's still better than what EA has done on newer consoles. I've really gotten back into 93 and 94 lately.

NHL 95 was a completely different game than NHL 91, NHL, NHLPA 93 and NHL 94. From the graphics, to the sounds, to the gameplay, it was completely different.

In my opinion, NHL 94 is the greatest game because it combined the NHLPA and the NHL licenses, and one-timers. The only thing it is missing is the fighting and blood.

NHL 95 is the worst. What a dissapointment. Just like the Canucks '95 playoffs. Stupid lockout....

I would have to say it is the biggest let down I've ever had in a game, including when Mario Bros. turned to a 3D style of play.

Why do they put graphics ahead of play control these days? Keep it simple. I'll never forget the day Jeff first rented 95, didn't tell me till way later in the day and simply shook his head, its no 94. Damn you EA Sports for destroying what could have been an even better game. But alas, '94 just has that ring to it.

94!

Why with all the busy changes? :money:

Like the menu screen.

While all these changes were being made all they needed to do was drop pass, block pass, fake shot and such like Jeff says.

The player portraits could look better but so many unneeded changes!!

What a sad day when NHL95 came out.

Why did they mess with a good thing?

EA made the NHL95 graphics worse and the players and instant replay to fast.

They should have just added harder slap shots like NHL93PA and added drop passes, block passes, block shots and fake passes and fake shots.

EA wake up and make the ultimate version!!!!

95 sucks.

Wait, didn't High Score Productions do NHL 94 as well?

Anyways, here's my theory: Anyone remember the Sports Illustrated cover saying why the NHL's hot and the NBA's not? Those were the good old times, right? And NHL 94 ruled, right?

Well, remember what else happened? Gary Bettman became commissioner. Then it all went downhill for the league. He changed the names of the conferences and the divisions and expanded the league, eventually turning the NHL into the joke it is today.

I think that once Buttman took over, the quality of the NHL went downhill. Guess what else did? That's right, the games. From then on (NHL 95 and beyond), the quality of the NHL games went downhill with the sport.

Let the conspiracies commence!

Good call on Bettman, and we all know what persuasion he is right? What the hell is that rat faced f*** doing in this league anyway? Further signs of the apocalypse...

Anyway, Jeff well done. ^_^

We should hunt these culprits down and feed them to Bettman.

The reason why the NHL went downhill in the States after 94

lol I forgot about the glow puck.

btw: One of the major developers who worked on '94 and '95 actually prefers '95 as it's "easier to score for him."

He also happens to be a member of the forum.

lol! That's so true! XD

By the way, I've tried to be open-minded about NHL 95, but truely, I never really liked it when compared to NHLPA 93 or NHL 94. Well, I really don't really have a problem playing it, I mean, it's not like a form of torture to me, but if I could choose between playing NHL 95 one hundred times, or playing NHLPA 93 or NHL 94 just once, I would choose to play 93 or 94, because one game of either of those is more fun than one hundred games of 95 combined. Well, at least that's how it is to me.

Basicly what I'm saying is, I don't hate NHL 95, but I don't love it either.
