Product Description

NHL 2000 puts you in control of the ice. With big hits and sweet fakes, NHL 2000 delivers nonstop hockey action from the first slap of the stick. If a monster hit takes you out, redemption is easy--drop the gloves and slug it out in a good old-fashioned brouhaha. Pick up and play with the tutorial level, or take a team from the cellar to the Stanley Cup in the new Dynasty mode. This game will allow you to take the shots, and deliver the hits.

Product Description

Cartridge Only Professional hockey comes to the Game Boy Color with NHL 2000. You can choose from all of the NHL teams, including the expansion Atlanta Thrashers. Play an Exhibition game to work on your tactics and strategies, and when you are ready for long-term competition, try to endure an 82-game Season, or just skip straight to the Playoffs. While in the game, you will have to learn when to make line changes and determine when it's a good time to pull the goalie. In addition to these tactical decisions, you must also deal with penalties and infractions including offsides, two-line passes, and icing. However, you can customize the game by turning off certain rules and setting the referee's strictness. In addition, there are three different difficulty levels. Will you be able to claim the Stanley Cup? The only way to find out is by playing NHL 2000.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hockey Rules! (but this game stinks), December 27, 1999

This review is from: NHL 2000 (Game Cartridge)

I love hockey and I love video games, so i was extremely excited when I first learned of NHL 2000 for the Gameboy Color. I love every EA Sport licensed game that I have ever played, however, after purchasing and playing the game, I was horribly disappointed. I'll be honest, I didn't expect much from the sound or graphics, which aren't great, but are actually fairly good considering it's on the Gameboy Color. The thing about the game that really ruins the experience is the controls. Hockey is a fast paced sport, and any semi-decent player is fairly agile, therefore, a hockey player should be able to quickly stop and start without much hesitation. The players in this game have a tendency to glide to a stop way past the point you want to be which makes grabbing a loose puck next to impossible. Once the puck has been acquired, it seems like it takes forever to reach the other end of the ice at the unbearably slow pace the players move. I stronly urge anyone considering to purchase this game to go to Blockbuster and rent it first. I feel that a persons $$ could be much better spent in other ways than on this game. Just in case someone from the EA or THQ is reading this, please make NHL 2001, but please fix the unpleasant gameplay. Thanks! :)

I played this game thinking it would be just another GBC mistake,(by the wa i love hockey and hockey games)playing this once hooked me onto it. Playing a season is so realistic and exiting. The players movment isnt to great but i forget about it and just play it. I'd rather play that than my NHL2k on dreamcast!

I find NHL 2000 to to be very entertaining, I don't spend a lot of my money on Game Boy games, but I do get the games I know I will like for a long period of time, and this is one of them. I own about 15 top games and this is my 16th. EA Sports games are one of the best in my collection. NHL 2000 features what I want in a hockey game. GFX, Enjoyment, Color # 1. NHL 2000
