Quote My record is 67 goals in a ten minute game withthe cpu goalie in. Quote 71 goals as the leafs agains the hawks.. goalies in.. noline changes no penalties.. ten min periods No penalties means they can't even B check.

So our self esteem remains steady. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smozoma Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Summary: Sega Genesis: September, maybe the 23rd Super Nintendo: November, announced for the 15th, but was late, probably 26th Sega CD: January The Genesis and SNES months match with the magazine scan hnfoo provided Genesis SNES Sega Genesis Posting records of the Genesis version being on sale as early as September 23rd: Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/Zh35ZFAxXG4/m/s-Sg-t8ogrcJ Sep 23, 1993, 3:26:04 PM "Last night I went and picked up my long awaited copy of NHL '94, and I haven't stopped playing it since. " ^ He says "last night", so I am making the assumption that he picked it up at midnight, or the store gave him his pre-order copy early, because I can't find any messages on Sept 22nd. Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/zLFQ5RLtyVQ/m/ui7Lz10qSJgJ Sep 23, 1993, 2:43:57 PM "Hey gang, just bought NHL '94 for the Genesis. I'll play it in about 4 hours when I get out of work. Looks pretty good just from the demo and the manual." Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/_qN5O4EyA4M/m/6BgjeHTb7LMJ Sep 23, 1993, 8:25:49 PM "It's in! Picked it up today and ran to my friends dorm to try it out!" And one from Sept 24 that seems to be from a store employee: Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/jpAw4gRhhv0/m/isnBctjcTRAJ Sep 24, 1993, 2:08:49 PM "Alright I'll run down the list of new features found on NHL'94 as pointed out in the manual" (list of new features) "Okay, that's all there is in this new game retailing here in Calgary, Canada at $66 Cdn." On the other hand, you have this guy on Sept 24 saying it's "Coming soon" Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.nintendo/c/msSiv313HLc/m/UI1AH9Rd2W0J Sep 24, 1993, 6:35:33 PM "Well, its coming soon for the Genesis, but have yet to hear word of it for the SNES. Is it coming? " Sega CD Someone called EA and was told it would be out in January or February. Then this guy posts that it's among newly released games in January: Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/duLKvA3uQz4/m/fyrCfWTQ7NEJ Jan 24, 1994, 1:56:02 PM "List of new games for Gameboy, Game Gear, SNES, Genesis, Sega CD, and 3D0." (lots of games...) "Sega CD: [...] NHL '94" And someone had it (and had returned it for a refund) by Jan 27: Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.sega/c/MRokeFVCOxk/m/5VYRGjJ0lQ4J Jan 27, 1994, 5:28:03 PM "For those interested, here are my impressions of NHL 94 for the Sega CD. First off a little background, I own the NHL 94 Genesis cart and even with its flaws I love it. Cut to the chase...I no longer have NHL 94 CD, I returned it." Super Nintendo A lot less usenet activity for this one... It was scheduled to come out Nov 15th: Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.nintendo/c/daUxhpkIdAI/m/MA3Rssmm4zUJ Sep 29, 1993, 2:44:57 AM "For those of you who have savoured the Genesis version, and are eagerly awaiting the Super NES translation, the SNES game is scheduled to be released on November 15th, so you'll have to wait a little longer." However, it may have been delayed until Nov 26th? Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.nintendo/c/ZuvXL2Ptos0/m/XPHKkbfviv8J Nov 15, 1993, 1:54:02 PM "You can play NHL'94 for the SNES at the Hockey Hall of Fame. It is part of the exhibit (I guess). The Toronto Sun has a picture of Pat Burns (coach of the Maple Leafs) playing the game against a small kid (and losing :)) When does it come out for the public? Nov. 25th?" Quote https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.video.nintendo/c/S0vMCT_ef_w/m/6T9gKfmHAiYJ Oct 13, 1993, 6:22:23 PM "I have seen some reviews for NHL 94 on the SNES, but when I called Software Etc. they told me it was not going to be released until Nov. 26.
