GameCube players will have to do without a little hockey action. EA Sports doesn’t have plans to release NHL 07 for the platform.
From Nintendo Dojo:
You are correct," said Electronic Arts publicist Jen Riley, responding to our inquiry. "[There will be] no Nintendo platforms for NHL 07."
This is kind of a sad revelation for the fans of the cube. The NHL franchise is a mainstay of sports gaming. In fact, my very favorite sports title was one of EA’s NHL’s (I’m not giving the year!) A friend of mine had mastered a glitch in the game that guaranteed a slap shot into the net every time, earning him the title The Cheese Master. What a blast we had trying to figure out a way around his insta-goals!
On the upside for Nintendo fans, EA is saying its support of the other systems will continue. "Many of our other games are continuing to support DS," said Riley, "and we hope to be on Wii in the future."
