MonkeyHead Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Saw this article just now: https://www.polygon.com/platform/amp/22323401/nhl-94-jumbotron-nhl-2021-stadium-series-postponed-carolina-hurricanes-carter-finley-stadium Basically, after the Canes stadium series was called off, the screen was used to play NHL 94 on. Laggy as sin, apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laggy as sin, apparently. I found the whole thing pretty weird, as they were still playing on / looking at small monitors from the look of things. Cool idea though. A while back, a group of us in Manchester hired a virtual golf simulator booth for the afternoon and played (take a deep breath) FIFA on a huge screen. It was outstanding (and boozy). When the EIHL '94 ROM gets finished, I am thinking of organising something in the Storm Shelter's bar and using projectors and the like. Not the same as this but it could be quite fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingraph Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 I got to do this at the Prudential Center, playing against Ken Daneyko. Still one of the coolest things I've ever done! https://forum.nhl94.com/index.php?/topic/18277-kingraph-playing-nhl94-on-the-jumbotron/ 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daneyko's response to his 46 rating was great: "The only number that matters is three, as in how many Stanley Cups I've won." Deadpan gold. It's nice that barns are so small / intimate by comparison to, say, football (soccer) stadiums, as it looks like you had a great view of the game without having to squint. If you tried using the "big" screen at Old Trafford (home of the godawful team that is Manchester United), you'd need a telescope. And, afterwards, vaccinating just in case you caught anything from the locals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
