NHLPA Hockey '93 is a SNES and Sega Mega Drive hockey game. It featured organ music and a digitized audience that cheered and catcalled with every decision made on the ice. There is an exhibition mode and a playoff mode with the winner of the playoff mode collecting the Stanley Cup. Offsides and penalties can be turned on and off but icing must remain on at all times. Notable players from the past like Doug Gilmour and Wayne Gretzky can be seen as they attempt to score goals and steer clear from the penalty box. This game was released near the Christmas of 1992. It was associated by the NHL Players Association, so the actual team names weren't used; the name of the city, the players and the colors identified the team (however, the New York Islanders team was referred to as Long Island.) Also, the game featured fighting, blood, and the ability for the glass of the arena to break. These features were removed in the following hockey games.
