Classic Game Room - ICE HOCKEY for NES review 

Played this more than Mario when I was a kid. Maybe the first game with that “one more game” hook about it. This one gave me blisters and callouses for sure.

One of my all-time favorite games. Holds up ridiculously well.

I loved this game when I was 9. I always went with all skinny dudes. :)

I soooo miss this game! Besides river city ransom & super dodge ball, this is a all time favorite game.

Still one of the best CGR reviews!

One of your best reviews yet mark! It's good to see 2 players, makes it more exciting to watch!

This was the most intense video game review I’ve ever seen. I cheered every time Canada scored. Good review.

Fun childhood memories with this game. The stick bashing before a fight... funny as hell. Thanks for sharing this video.

2 things I've noticed..... :) Some of the characters look like Mario from SMB 3, and they also use the Victory Song from SMB, only altered a bit at the end, and sped up.... :D I guess not many sprites were available when they were putting them into the games file... ;)

I LOVE your hockey game reviews, you are so awesome dude. I'm going to watch/like/favorite every one of them.

Played the heck out of this with my brother when we were little. It still holds up! I played it the other day lol

what a great review! I was actually on the edge of my seat and was really excited when you won.

Used to play this with dad all the time in the late 80's/early 90's. We loved the brawls.

lol ha I love the "WTF" @ 4:03 that was an instant classic

one of my all time favorite hockey video games. spent alot time playing this as a kid

Mark you are the fine wine of RU-vid Video game reviewers!

Many, MANY hours spent on this game as a kid, great review!!

This was a great review, thanks for the laughs.

Nice game and WHAT A COME BACK!. I could never beat the computer.

Love the classic 8-bit music, great review and great game. The 8-bit music was the most inspirational of all to me. :D

my childhood!!! the battle between players are so funny! so memorable

This review nailed the experience perfectly.

man 8-bit sounds just makes everygame better its just the best game sound they sound so cool:D

Great review!

we will rememeber that match for a long time.. awesome review, i could wach it all day. we want more rivalry mark ! more MArk vs...

one of the funniest reviews you ever done Mark! and you should try to post a version of this with you and derek and the cursing XD

Great show !! thanx a lot :D

This game provided hours of fun back in the early 90's.

Damn, this episode was the funniest one Ive seen since, probably, the People Hunt review from the old days. Nice job Mark. FREE BEER HERE

that was one hell of a sports montage comback!

Love seeing some more NES reviews

another nes-game to collect....my wife is killing me ^^ great show!!!

Aww I remember this game, so much fun back in the day :) Swedish Ice Hockey fan here btw.

Ya I just played this.. it is sooo good! Loads up so fast and designed so well.

that was one of your better reviews! ! great job!!

another awesome review

FIGHT! FIGHT!!! gotta love that pixelated blood. i used to always pick fights with the other teams. blades of steel is an awsome hockey game too.

I like the crowd around the side!

Sick video as usual Mark!

Classic Game Room was the first channel I subscribed to years ago

Watching you two play, I acted the same way as I do when I watch real sports!

This one and NHLPA '93 are the best oldschool hockey games. They are as much fun today still as they were back then when they were new.

Review was Awesome!

This is the most fun sports game that I have ever played. Ahh...brings back high school memories...

And this is why Mark should do the classic game reviews. Keep the classic gold coming.

It's nice that you've started doing NES reviews! :D

epic game for sure, i LOVED this game back in the day

I remember playing this game as a kid

This was the first NES game that I owned. My mom and dad gave it to my for Christmas in 1988.

This is one of the best games on my ~500 NES-game cartridge for the GBA... Good fun on the road.

My brothers and I would play this for hours on end! I always got a kick out of how the spectators all looked like Beatles clones, and how loud they got in the final seconds if the game was tied.

I loved this game. I used to hold the puck forever with the fat guy and let go the lighting shot go.

that was an epic match. from 3-1 to 3-8 to 10-8 :P one of my favourite reviews :D

good review!

I still play this till this day damn

I missed this game when I was a kid. Shame. I would've loved it.

OMG!!!! i REMEMBER THIS GAME. I loved it. They should rerelease this.

I used to play this game with my father as well & whenever I watch a NHL ice hockey especially the Philadelphia Flyers this game's soundtrack comes to mind this could had also been a great NHL based hockey video game for the NES if licensed by the NHL of course.

What a comeback! U-S-A! U-S-A!

this was the most exiting game review!

The graphics have such a awesome classic NES look too them!

Great review as always! By the way, you _can_ pull the goalies in this game. On the title screen hold down the A and B buttons on both controllers, then press Start on controller 1. This also has a nice side-effect on the puck :)

GO CANADA GO! Great game, awesome review!

20 years later, this game still rules

definitely my favourite NES game, so unbelievably fun.

I used to play the hell out of this game. Loved it.

i just love that game, just bought it on the wii virtual console!

A friend of mine has this on his NES and tomorrow i'll grab a bag of beer and i'll spend the afternoon there playing tournaments with some people he invited. Love this game!

XD. I loved this review. Really funny.

one of my favorites on the nes

I couldn't agree more that this is one of the best two-player games for the NES. I spent many a summer day playing the hell out of this with my brother and a friend. Good times. This game is still very fun.

now that was intense!

Just simply one of the funnest nrs games to play if you have a somewhat equal opponent. Tense and exciting, palms sweating for sure. We played this game for id guess hundreds of hours

Great game...awesome review...although I was booing you when you hid behind the net. That's so bush! i still remember beating this game in the 100's There was a trick in shooting from the centre circle. Great choice.

excellent review, well done! what was your comeback song?

sweet! needs to be on vc.

Aww, memories :)

this is the best commentary evah

I love this game!

I loved this game. I always ran 1 fat, 2 meds and 1 skinny.

I like the stock music Mark throws in around 5:00.

Your review here may just have helped me choose how to spend my last 500 Wii points.

I love the USA vs. Canada part

Excellent game...round robin tourneys are still a norm in my house.

another great review. have you considered doing NHL Hitz Pro? that game was amazing!

Holy shit xD I had this game when I was young! I remember that I liked to make them all fight!

this looks like fun!

Ah... memories... I remember playing this as a kid... still have it, i was always the U.S., U.S.A., U.S.A.

I'm getting this.

If you end in a draw in the 4th period, you go again to shootout. Great laughs with your review!

Man I remember having this game as a kid and I used to get SOOO MAAAD because the computer would whip my behind but that was motivation for me as a kid to get better and eventually I beat the compter!!!

YA GO CANADA!!! WOOOOOOO!!! Aw man... We Lost :(... XD Awsome Review. Wish i could find this game again. Probably just head over to the flea market :P

I must have been 10 when I used to play this game with my dad. He was not a gamer but he would always beat me... Good 'ol Days!!!!

i only have 7 games for my nes now and this is one of them:)

Great review,this game does look awesome lol and I need to get this game on the wii. Makes me think of a cool soccer game I had on the NES..can't remember the name of the game tho..

What song is used for the 1980esque sport's montage? It's pretty awesome.

I have this game and it is awesome.

greatest comeback EVAAAAH!!!!

aww i had this game, i want to play it now soo bad.. lol

A great review for a great game. I hope the opposite doesn't happen for a bad game.
