WAS NHL SLAPSHOT ACTUALLY THAT GOOD?

  • NHL Slapshot for the Wii has become almost a cult classic since it was first released in 2010. Has the novelty worn off, or does the gameplay hold up in 2023? Corwin and DZ popped the game in for another edition of "Game Capsule."

    So many memories from playing this game growing up. Huge part of my childhood that’s still a ton of fun to play to this day. Once you learn all the mechanics and know how to play the game itself, it’s an incredible experience all around. The game has a ton of variety in terms of its core gameplay, modes, and challenges. Not to mention that it has quite arguably the best soundtrack in any NHL game. Nothing but bangers on all fronts. I’m glad that you both had fun playing it even if there were some issues that you ran into while playing. I can’t express to you enough how much fun this game truly is and how many times I’ve laughed when playing pee wee mode. Just seeing pee wee hockey players fall on the ice when getting checked is one of the funniest things I’ve seen when playing a game. I just wish you guys got around to knowing the op wrist shot move. No joke, you can actually snipe the puck bar down from the blue line/top of the circle when you enter the opposing teams zone. Just aim for the opposite top corner/side of the net and watch the magic happen. Anyways, keep up the great work as always and now I really want to play NHL Slapshot again.

Recently I picked it up again off my shelf and made a file with the default rosters and so far I am End of november 23-3-0 for the Canucks with only one of those wins being an OT win.

Yes u would definitely think about this . U would be stupid to think about this it isn't intelligent to get lucky. In hindsight they were worthless why would spend 100 dollars on 50 copies of a game that was only worth 2$ . Makes no sense. This isn't crypto .
