I decided to make a FAQ for this game cause their wasn't one already and I love this game. If you didn't notice already, this FAQ covers the GameBoy Advance version of NHL 2002. It's a great game, that is similar to the NHL games on the SNES. If I'm not mistaken, it's the most similar to NHL 96. ================ *** CONTROLS *** ================ Menu Options ------------ Highlight option...............................Control Pad Select option..................................A Button Previous screen................................B Button Gameplay -------- Skate..........................................Control Pad Take the draw (in a faceoff)...................B Button Offense ------- Pass...........................................B Button + Control Pad Wrist shot.....................................Tap A Button Slap shot......................................Hold A Button One-timer......................................B Button then A Button Quick stop.....................................L Button Spin-o-rama....................................R Button Defense ------- Hold/Hook......................................L Button Hit the ice to block shot......................R Button Control defensive player closest to puck.......B Button Poke check/Trip (when closest to the puck).....B Button Speed up/Body check............................A Button Goaltending ----------- Flip puck out of zone..........................A Button + Control Pad Pass/Clear along boards........................B Button + Control Pad Fighting -------- Drop gloves....................................R, B or A Button Head punch.....................................R Button Body punch.....................................B Button Grab jersey....................................A Button Block punch....................................Control Pad + L Button Move forward or back...........................Control Pad, <- and -> ============================ *** PLAY MODES & OPTIONS *** ============================ Play Now -------- Play Now is just an Exhibition type mode.

Penalties: This option lets you have penalties on, off or have penalties with the exception of those annoying offsides. Line Changes: You can choose to have them on, off or automatic. Having them on, will force you to change lines manually, while automatic will automatically do them for you. Rosters: You can have the default rosters or with trades you made in the season mode. Fighting: Choose to have it on or off. If on, you'll get into scraps every now and then during games. Practice -------- This mode is handy if you're looking to practice and sharpen your skills (or just have some fun). You can select how many players are on each team (ie, 2 on 2, 3 on 1, etc...). Visitor Players: Select how many players the visiting team will have. Can be anywhere from 0 to 5. Home Players: Select how many players the home team will have. Can be anywhere from 0 to 5.

(Game Options) Skill Level: Three options are available here - Novice, Intermediate and Expert. Novice is the easiest while Expert is the hardest and Intermediate is something inbetween. Period Length: Select between 5, 10 and 20 minute periods. User Records: You can either have user records on or off.

Single game will have only one game per round while Multi is the best of 7 games. (Transactions) Trade Players: Trade players between 2 teams. I personally feel this is almost useless, as it's easier to just release somebody you want, then sign them. Do this if you want to go the hard way about things. Sign Free Agents: Sign free agents to teams. Release Players: Release players from teams and they'll be free agents. Create Player: You can create your own player! You get to choose the name of the player, as well as the position, weight, number and hand he'll shoot. Then, you'll have so many points to distribute to various skills of the player. All created players become free agents and you must sign them to the team you want them on. Link Play --------- Link up and play against a friend.

After the demo ends, you should hear "it's in the game", if done correctly. The 2 bonus teams are Tiburon Sharks and Budcat Cats. They are available in Play Now and Practice modes. -If you hold the L & R buttons as soon as you start the game up, a Zamboni will take the place of the puck in the intro. -The easiest way to get the players you want on your team, is to release them as free agents. Then just sign them to the team you want. Especially handy if you want to stack your team ;) -There are points in this game where you can shoot the puck from and usually score. I've shown a few of the ways below: The x's indicate where you should be approximately. Yeah, the diagrams suck, but it's the best I can do. | | Shoot just as you're reaching the goal line, | | and it'll go in almost everytime. It's best to | | use a wrist shot. This trick works best I find, | x x | when going down. It's a little trickier to do | \___/ | when going up. One of the easiest ways to score. \_______________/ | | Start at either side of the net and skate across | | in front. You want to be close to the goalie, but | | not too close, cause he'll most likely try to | x------> | poke check you. Anyway, shoot as you get to the | \___/ | other side of the net, and it should go in. \_______________/ ======================= *** GAMESHARK CODES *** ======================= (M) 4b12c259 dbb95459 1365cb65 fcaf3c55 Away Team Scores 50 0a22114b c483b7e1 Home Team Scores 50 724049ec b98e9e65 Away Team Scores 0 61759385 a405754c Home Team Scores 0 bbdfd836 d5ab8dbb ================== *** DISCLAIMER *** ================== This FAQ can be distributed freely as long as it remains 100% unchanged and no money or any type of profit is gained from it.
