YOUR GAME BOY® IS ABOUT TO BE PUT ON ICE!

The hockey classic, Blades of Steel, blasts out of the NES™ box to crush you against the boards. From the face-off to the final whistle you'll attack the most ferocious hockey pucks ever to strap on video steel. Despite the ice,these guys are real hot heads. So don't slip-up or you'll be swimming in denture grip!


  • All the slash-o-matic action you'd expect from the NES Blades of Steel, including passing, checking, goal tending and slap shooting.

  • Three hard hitting levels (Junior, College and Pro) challenge you to either get better or get creamed.

  • Eight pro-style teams to choose from: Chicago, Los Angeles, Vancouver, Montreal, New York, Edmonton, Minnesota, and Toronto.

  • Sudden death overtime and one-on-one (slap shooter vs. goal tender) penalty scenes will separate the winners from the wimps.

  • When tempers flare the gloves will come off and full-blown fights will erupt.

  • Intense practice scenes let you hone your slap shooting, goal tending and fighting skills.
