Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey for the Nintendo 64 is an action-packed sports game that simulates ice hockey with a focus on arcade-style gameplay. Released in 1996, it features fast-paced matches, exaggerated physics, and over-the-top effects that differentiate it from traditional, simulation-based hockey games. Players can choose from NHL teams, engage in high-scoring games, and execute unrealistic, powerful shots. The game supports up to four players for multiplayer fun, offering a blend of authentic team rosters and fantastical elements for an entertaining take on the sport.
