Dino Hockey is a cancelled ice hockey game for the NES, which was given a fleeting mention in GamePro magazine.
The game can be played by two players, with each team consisting of three dinosaurs and what looks like a Plesiosaur in the goal sticking its head up through a hole in the ice. The puck is a turtle shell. In the prototype you can only play in 2-player mode, but in the ROM the graphics for the numbers for player 3 and 4 can be found. So, it was apparently planned to allow up to four players.
The game was hardly mentioned by the press at the time. It was briefly mentioned in the September 1991 issue of GamePro: “OK, you know what dinosaurs are and you know what ice hockey is, but do you know what Dino-Hockey is? If you haven’t already guessed it’s dinosaurs playing ice hockey. Guess it was the best thing they could do once the ice age rolled around! Available ’91“. Besides that there is very little information to find online.
