Play NHL '96 Online
Skate, pass, and shoot your way to victory in NHL '96, controlling a team of five skaters and a goalie to outscore your opponent.
NHL '96 came out for the Super Nintendo in 1995, published by EA Sports. It was one of the later hockey games on the system, arriving just before the shift to newer consoles. You could tell they were pushing the hardware, trying to get the most out of it before moving on.
You control a team of five skaters and a goalie, working to outscore your opponent. The main objective is simple: put the puck in the net. Signature mechanics include the one-timer, which requires precise passing and timing for a quick shot, and manual goalie control, letting you take direct command of the netminder to make desperate saves. The pace is fast, with a real emphasis on fluid skating and positioning. It feels responsive and sharp, especially when you connect on a breakaway or execute a perfect deke.
