1-1 Gameplay
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 3 modes in Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey.
1. ARCADE MODE
Each team has 2 wingmen, 1 center, and 1 goaltender on the ice
at all times. After fights, the player is replaced by the next
man on the roster until the end of the period.
Players can use power shots (shoot + turbo) for flaming net shots
or goaltender destruction shots. If a goalie stops 6 consecutive
shots, he will become a brick wall for the next shot. Fights seem
to happen more often that the 1.5 average. As well, if one person
is down by one or more goals, the opponent's goaltender becomes
extremely dumbfounded to just about every shot you put his way.
2. SIMULATION MODE
Each team has 2 wingmen, 1 center, 2 defensemen, and 1 goaltender
on the ice unless their are penalties ongoing. By switching down
the player count, defensemen are removed from the roster.
Power shots, flaming nets, brick walls, and such are disabled.
The glowing puck can still be enabled however, considering that
FOX uses it! Goaltenders keep their usual IQ level at all times,
so dont expect to score every 20 to 30 seconds. Also, the
normal rink size is enabled, making the surface a lot larger.
3. PRACTICE MODE
This is actually a sub mode. After completing the one period
practice, you will be rated based on your performance.
-SUCKER lolipop: You did horrible.
-SILVER medal: Not bad.
-GOLD medal: Pretty good.
-SILVER trophy: Very good.
-GOLD trophy: Outstanding!
OFFENSE:
In arcade mode, this is a 3 on 0 game with 2 goaltenders.
In simulation, the gameplay changes and there can be up
to 5 players. Your player is rated for goals and
assists scored.
DEFENSE:
1 on 3 with 2 goaltenders. You are rated for goals
scored, and checks made, but the shots do not not
neccessarily need to be on target.
SHOOTING:
1 on 0 with 2 goaltenders. You are rated for goals
scored.
*NOTE: You can play this mode as 1 on 1 if you have a
controller in port 3.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1-2 Options
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. GAME PLAY MODE
A. ARCADE
See "Gameplay/ARCADE" (DEFAULT)
B. SIMULATION
See "Gameplay/SIMULATION"
2. RINK SURFACE
A. ARCADE (DEFAULT)
Ice surface is fairly small for a harder hitting,
higher scoring game.
B. SIMULATION
Ice surface is NHL regulation size,
for more space for people to skate.
3. TEAM SIZE
A. 3 (DEFAULT)
3 on 3 hockey with 2 goaltenders.
B. 4
4 on 4 hockey with 2 goaltenders.
C. 5
5 on 5 hockey with 2 goaltenders.
4. DIFFICULTY
A. VERY EASY
B. EASY (DEFAULT)
C. MEDIUM
D. HARD
E. VERY HARD
5. PERIOD LENGTH
If you selected ARCADE mode, you can choose from
1:30 2:00 (DEFAULT) 2:30 3:00
If you selected SIMULATION mode, you can choose from
5:00 10:00 (DEFAULT) 15:00 20:00
6. FIGHTING (DEFAULT ON)
You can turn fighting on or off. Fighting during the game happens
when one players aggression meter tops out. The winner of the fight
gets a faceoff in his opponents zone. The winning and losing
players are automatically relegated to the penalty box.
CONTROL
HEAVY PUNCH:
Press the 'pass' button. This is slower
but more powerful.
LIGHT PUNCH:
Press the 'shoot' button. This is faster
but less powerful.
HOLD AND DOUBLE PUNCH:
Press the shoot and pass buttons simultaneously.
You will pick up your opponent and hit him
in the face twice.
UPPERCUT:
Press the shoot and turbo buttons simultaneously.
You will deliver an uppercut, which does the
most damage, but leaves you open for counters.
7. PENALTIES (DEFAULT OFF)
OFF: No penalties. The only stoppage in play comes from a goal,
or when the goalie hangs on to the puck too long.
ON: All penalties. Icing, 2 line passes, offsides, xchecking
(crosschecking), hooking, tripping are called when
appropriate (BUT NOT ALWAYS).
NO ICING/OFFSIDES: All penalties are called, but Icing the puck and
offsides or 2 line passes are ignored.
8. PLAYER SWITCHING (DEFAULT MANUAL)
MANUAL: You must press the R button to switch players. If a
player on your team has the puck, he will move by
himself, but you control if he can pass or shoot.
AUTOMATIC: You become the player on your team who has the puck.
9. LINE CHANGES (DEFAULT MANUAL)
MANUAL: You must press start during the game and turn on
line changes during a stoppage in play. This allows
a new line to get on the ice.
AUTOMATIC: The computer makes line changes at its own discretion.
10. PLAY SPEED: (DEFAULT NORMAL)
NORMAL: Faceoffs and pre-game flag waving happen.
FAST: Faceoffs faster, no pre game flags.
11. PUCK STREAK: (DEFAULT ON)
ON: The puck has a glowing streak when shot.
OFF: The puck has no streak.
12. PLAYER FATIGUE
ON: The players tire after periods of
skating, hitting or fighting.
OFF: The players play like superhumans! :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1-3 Moves
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SKATING
Use the analog joystick (center) or the digital joypad (left)
to move the skater. The longer they continue in one
direction, the faster they can go. Both are active at all times,
so you can switch between the two controls at any time.
2. SHOOTING
Use the 'A' button (blue) or the 'Z' trigger (bottom) to
shoot the puck. The time you spend holding the button
determines the type of shot.
-WRIST SHOT
Press and release the button quickly. A wrist shot
is very fast, but low.
-SLAP SHOT
Hold the button and release. A Slap shot is
even faster, and usually goes high.
-POWER SHOT
Hold the shoot button, then press the turbo button,
and release both. A power shot is recognized by a
flaming puck. If you cant get it to work, trying
pressing both shoot and turbo simultaneously. If
the shot does not result in a goal, the turbo will
be replenished in roughly 5 seconds.
-GOALTENDER DESTRUCTION
Perform a power shot directly at the goaltender so
it hits the bottom middle space between his pads.
If performed correctly, the goaltender will hit the back
of the net, and the boards, basically
'digging his own grave'.
-TURBO BOOST
Press the bottom 'C' button. Your player will
burst ahead with a blue streak. You can tell if
turbo is available by looking at for a red filled circle
on your status bar.
-PASS
Press the 'B' button. Your player will use his
stick to pass the puck to another player.
-ONE TIMER
Press the shoot and pass buttons simultaneously.
You will pass to another player who is already
about to shoot the puck. This is one of the best
ways to score.
-SPIN-O-RAMA
Twirl the control stick or pad in circles
(either direction) and shoot.
Your player will spin extremely fast and shoot the puck.
3. OTHER MOVES
-CROSS CHECK
Press the left 'C' button. Your player will use
his stick to injure other players by holding both
ends and pushing horizontally.
-TRIP
Press the right 'C' button. Your player will
extend his stick low to trip a player.
-HOOK
Press the top 'C' button. Your player will attempt
to grab another player with the curved end of his stick.
-DIVE
Press the shoot and pass buttons simultaneously.
Your player will drop horizontally to the ice to
stop a low shot.
-DROP
Press the shoot button. Your player will drop
to his knees to block a shot.
-STEAL
Press the pass button. Your player will extend
his stick to take away the puck.
-SWITCH
Press the R button (behind). You will switch
to another player.

1-4 Gameplay Tricks
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The crew at Midway/Williams/Atari really went nuts on the 'arcade'
perspective of WG3D. As a result, the goaltenders are no better
than 10 year olds. There are several methods for guaranteed goals,
although none of them are as sure fire as the infamous EA NHL
series glitches.
1. Run straight at one of the goalposts. At the moment the
goaltender tries a poke check, shoot for an easy goal between
the legs. This requires good timing.
2. If you have a loose analog joystick, pretend you're a russian
hotshot and wave your stick back and forth (left and right)
as fast as you can. If you keep on course for the post,
chances are good it will go in. I managed 40 goals in 2
minutes once...although my controller is now really loose.
-If you play the 'SHOOTING' practice mode, just keep firing away.
More often then not, you will get exactly 6 goals. Ta da.
-Use the power shot often. If you hit the goalie low and
dead on, he will normally hit the back boards with a thump.

1-5 Codes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-At the "Options" screen, press the "Z" button (trigger) and
an advertisement will float along the bottom of the screen.
-You can see the game designers by continuing to press
the "A" button at the title screen until you see the words
'3D HOCKEY' along the top of the screen.
-Using the same method as above, if you keep pressing the A button
and observe the computerized games, you will eventually be able to
watch the 'puck cam' mode.
-If you hold down the 'L' and 'R' shoulder buttons while choosing your
player on a particular team, and use the control stick, you move around
the screen as well as the player. I have no idea what this does.
-You can pick a defenseman to play as! Not much of a code, but if you
set the game to 'simulation' 4 or 5 player and select a team, press down
until you select the bottom player. Keep pressing and your defensemen
will miraculously show up! Chelios is one power guy!
-The infamous "16 bit register" code:
At the options screen, you can activate a 16 bit register,
which shows 16 zero's along the bottom of the screen.
Each one of these can be changed to show a 1 instead of a
zero, but we need help finding out how to do it. Heres
how to change the first 8. Each one has a different
effect on the game. If you can find how to activate bits
that I dont already know (11,12,13,14,15,16), please
email me!

Effect: Switch to "Team Stats" Screen. Press "Up C" 10 times.
You can now pick 2 teams to modify. Select wisely...you cannot
trade players FROM your selected teams. Press Left or right to
switch teams, press A to confirm. Upon finishing, you will see
2 team rosters listed. Press up or down to select a player from
your personal team, and left or right to select a player from any
NHL squad. Press the B Button to switch teams to trade with.
Press Start when completed, and fill out second roster. Now, for
as long as you have the game on (or have a memory card) the team
you modified will have the players you selected. Because most
of the RAM is already used to display the faces on the teams, you
will encounter slight loading times when shifting through teams
with altered rosters.
"Ahh..how does the Canucks armed with Mogilny, Federov,
and Bure sound to you?"
0000000010000000 Hold "L" and press "Right C", "Left C", "Left C",
"Right C", "Down C", "Up C", "Up C", "Down C",
"Left C", "Right C", "Right C", "Left C",
"Right C", "Left C"
Effect: Almost every hit in the game results in a fight! This blatant
avoidance of NHL guidelines brings the fight average up to around
30 fights/game. ^_^
0000000001000000 Hold "L" and press "Right C"
"Left C" "Left C". Repeat 3x.
Effect: WILLIAMS, 99ERS TEAM USA, AND
TEAM CANADA AVAILABLE

1-6 Errors/ Peculiarities
------------------------------------------------------------
-Not all the players could fit into this game. Therefore, there
are 17 players on a team (including 2 goaltenders). However,
not all their faces could make it. Players who did not make it
have an NHLPA logo instead. On the ice, they assume a default
face (unknown) This could be for space concerns, or more likely:
they could not obtain a picture. Considering they managed to
put their own faces in, I doubt Midway/Williams/Atari faced the
former.
Affected players:
Ottawa is the most affected: I've named one line the
"Who the Hell are they" line. 3/5 players are without
pictures. :)
Lehtinen -Dallas Stars
Bertuzzi -New York Islanders
Alfredsson -Ottawa Senators
Radek Bonk -Ottawa Senators
Mccleary -Ottawa Senators
O'neill -Hartford Whalers
Saku Koivu -Montreal Canadiens
Satan -Edmonton Oilers
Yachmenev -Los Angeles Kings
Jan Coloun -San Jose Sharks
-Some players have abbreviated or mispelled names. Look for the
* (asterisk) beside their names in this FAQ. If the players
whole name is bracketed ([]) then it is showing the correct name.
-Even in simulation mode, the winner of a fight gets the
faceoff in their opponents zone..
-I'm pretty sure ALL players are rated, but however,
there is no way to determine the ratings of any defensemen
in this game. Also, some players are in the
incorrect ice positions.
-Sorry fanatics, the fatality rumor was put to rest!
-The Puck Cam is available on the computer demo...anybody
figure out how to get it for human action?
------------------------------------------------------------
1-7 Wish List
------------------------------------------------------------
There are some obvious problems to this otherwise great game..hopes and
comments for a new version are as follows.
-Player Jerseys need to be fixed. I want to see higher res textures,
shoulder designs, official team number fonts, name on the back, numbers
on the back and side...make it look like a real jersey.
And COME ON!, get the rangers and penguins jerseys right...
-Face graphics could use an overhaul. Each player could have
their cheek structures at least a LITTLE bit closer to norm,
at the cost of altering a few vertex values.
-Body figures could use one or more of the following:
a) Body rehauls. The skating is perfect, but the guys all look
5' 9 with an lindros physique.
b) More polygons. With some more microcode, slight tinkering, etc.,
they should be able to add at least 25% more polygons per player,
and perhaps up the 5 on 5 screen rate.
-This is more of long term speculation, but using the DD drive could be
a good idea. It would certainly help out on all the detail areas.
-FIX THE GOALIES! The goalies seem to rely more on percentages than
anything. In watching the NHL over the years, goaltenders are far
more likely to let in a goal under the legs or through the 5 hole
instead of the dumb 'let me move out of the way' procedure of WG3D.
-Fix penalty situations. Im pretty sure all the penalties are not on
there, and the way the penalties work needs to be altered. Also, if
they can put in 2d crowds, why not full benches and manned penalty boxes?
-LET US CHOOSE WHO PLAYS WHERE!! 2 on 2 is good, but sometimes you want
3-0, 3-1, or 4-0. Also, let us choose how many players we want
for either mode. Sometimes, 1-0 simulation mode could be pretty fun.

All player ratings are done from the game on a 1-16 scale, where
16 is the highest and 1 is the lowest. However, no player
scores below a 7 in any possible area.
The exception in this game is that goalies not have visible ratings.
WG3D: Refers to the name of the game, "Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey". This
reference is used several times throughout this FAQ to show
differences between the real game of hockey and this N64 game.
N64: Refers to the "Nintendo 64". This is the video game console needed
to play WG3D. I'm aware this is also an arcade title (which
coincedentally has *perfect* jerseys), but I have not played it
and cannot judge differences.
DD64 or DD Drive: As of this writing, Nintendo is planning to release
a magneto/optical drive which can hold 8 times the information
that is currently on a WG3D game pak. The only name
available so far is the 'DD64', 'Bulky Drive', or 'DD Drive'.
An even more obscure name is the 'Ultradisk'.
SP= Speed Rating out of a total possible of 16. Speed affects
the player's ability to skate. High speed players,
like Bure or Federov, zoom past opposing players, often
avoiding checks, and avoiding goalies on the way to the net!
---------------------
Top League Speedsters
---------------------
[Pavel] Bure -> Vancouver Canucks
[Jaromir] Jagr -> Pittsburgh Penguins
[Alexander] Mogilny -> Vancouver Canucks
[Sergei] Federov -> Detroit Red Wings
[Teemu] Selanne -> Anaheim Mighty Ducks
[Mike] Gartner -> Toronto Maple Leafs
[Jeff] Friesen -> San Jose Sharks
[Mike] Sullivan -> Calgary Flames
SH= Shooting Rating out of a total possible of 16. Shooting
affects players accuracy to put the puck in the net.
Snipers like Gretzky or Lemieux have a habit of putting
a wrist shot in *just* the place they want it.
---------------------
Top League Snipers
---------------------
[Mario] Lemieux -> Pittsburgh Penguins
[Adam] Oates -> Boston Bruins
[Pat] Lafontaine -> Buffalo Sabres
[Eric] Lindros -> Philidelphia Flyers
[Wayne] Gretzky -> New York Rangers
ST= Strength Rating out of a total possible of 16. Strength
affects players abilties to knock people down, and 'piss'
people off. With the strength of Barnaby or Lindros,
opposing players hit the ice face first more often, and
feel like dropping the gloves faster.
---------------------
Top League Bullies
---------------------
[Rick] Tocchet -> Boston Bruins
[Turner] Stevenson -> Montreal Canadiens
Brad May -> Buffalo Sabres
[Matthew] Barnaby -> Buffalo Sabres
[Eric] Lindros -> Philidelphia Flyers

[Dino] Ciccarelli -> Detroit Red Wings
[Bob] Probert -> Chicago Blackhawks
[Wendel] Clark -> Toronto Maple Leafs
[Shayne] Corson -> St.Louis Blues
DE= Defense Rating out of a total possible of 16. Defense
affects players ability to stop shots, skate backwards,
and deflect shots away. Players like Holik or Tikkanen
are much more likely to keep your shots away from the
goaltender.

0. History: The Pittsburgh Penguins were once a franchise
destined to move, until the year they drafted Mario
Lemieux. True, they did purposely lose the season to
draft him, but his talents are near impossible to
match. This is your last chance to play the magnificent
one; he has retired, and most likely won't be in another
hockey game.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0. History: The Boston Bruins are one of the original

Stanley Cup Finals Series. With players like the
legendary Bobby Orr retired, the Bruins have to rely
on the goaltending of Bill Ranford and the hall of
fame defense of Ray Bourque.

0. History: The Flyers have been rebuilt in the essence
of the old Brawlers, and it shows. By acquiring

2-16 New York Islanders [?????, Long Island, New York]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0. History: The Islanders had it all once. 4 straight
stanley cups, and draft picks that turned into
NHL all stars such as Pat Lafontaine and Ray Ferraro.
Unfortunately, their new mix of talent didn't last,
and they were forced to join Edmonton in the rebuilding
process. Now, with snipers like Zigmund Palffy, the
best defensive prospects in the game, and two solid
goaltenders, the Islanders can only move up.

3-2 Colorado Avalanche [McNicholls Sports Arena, Denver, Colorado]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0. The story of the Avalanche is a sad one
indeed. Formerly the Quebec Nordique, they built
a roster from draft picks and the Eric Lindros deal.
Unfortunately, at the season where they finally became
a team to be reckoned with, their owner announced
they were to be moved to Colorado. After a few
horrible calls, they were swept in the first round
by the Stanley Cup Champion Rangers, only to win
the cup in Colorado the next year. Perhaps they
can do that again with some tinkering.

3-4 Vancouver Canucks [General Motors Place, Vancouver, B.C.]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0. History: Ah, the historic Canucks. Although only
making the cup finals twice in their history, they
put on perhaps the greatest show of hockey ever in
the 1994 playoffs, known to canucks fans as the
'Canadian Miracle', where a breakaway goal by
the Russian Rocket, Pavel Bure, in double overtime
of game 7 beat the Calgary Flames. The propelled from
that win all the way to a 7th game of the Stanley
Cup Finals, only to lose by one goal to the New York
Rangers. After the final, however, the Canucks returned
to their mediocrity; they have placed .500 records or below
every season since. Maybe with a healthy Bure and
renewed Mogilny, they can change that.

4.0 F.requently A.sked Q.uestions: FAQ
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Why are there funny symbols in front of certain players?
The 'symbols' are actually the logo for the NHLPA. For
either space concerns or problems in finding pictures,
these players could not get a picture before the
game was shipped.
2. Who is the best team in the league?
The Detroit Red Wings. 5 50+ rated stars, 2 great
goaltenders, and their jersey even looks close. :-)
For the team rankings, go to the Overall rankings
near the beginning of the FAQ.
3. Who is the worst team in the league?
The Los Angeles Kings. Quite frankly, you could take
worse players from the other teams, throw 'em together,
and still have a better lineup.
4. I pressed some buttons in the options screen, and this bar
of zero's showed up along the bottom of the screen. What gives?
You've activated a code. Look at the Codes section (1.5) and
see which spot the one(s) are in. If theyre in a spot not
listed, email me at
[email protected] with as much
information as you can: How you did it, and if you dont know,
try to find out what it does.
5. I used some codes, but now I dont want them. How do I turn 'em off?
Repeat each codes process several times until they will
all read zero's. Or, hit the RESET button on your N64.
6. How do you decide which person plays on which team?
You don't. Controller plug 1 & 2 are for the 2 players
on Team 1, and plugs 3 & 4 are for Team 2.
7. These questions suck. How do we get more?
Email me at
[email protected]. I will try my best to
answer, or include the question in the next edition of the FAQ.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.1 Controller Pak: Use
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Plug it in before you start the game, and it will do it by itself
pretty much! The pak will be automatically detected when playing
exhibition games.
-Go to the PLAY SEASON mode, followed by Controller Pak. Move up
or down to select previous entries, or type in your own.
-You can access the stored Stats by going to /RECORDS/CTLR PAK STATS
-You can access the files by going to /RECORDS/CTLR PAK NOTES
-The Controller Pak will save initials, +/- ratings, goals, and
rankings.
-The Controller Pak eliminates passwords!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.2 Changes in NHL for summer '97
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't exactly the most helpful, and its incomplete,
but most of the key information is here.

and are now known as the Carolina Hurricanes.
-The Vancouver Canucks have new uniforms and a new logo.
-Expansion franchises in Atlanta, Nashville, St. Paul (Minnesota), and
Columbus (Ohio) have been approved. Nashville could enter the league
as early as next season.

4.3 Stanley Cup Winner
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oddly enough, the number one team rated in WG3D, but not in the NHL
regular season, won the stanley Cup.
ALL HAIL THE DETROIT RED WINGS! (for now, anyway!)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.4 Where's the SEQUEL?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good news, hockey fans! Midway/Williams/Atari has announced that
"THE NHL & NHLPA PRESENT: WAYNE GRETZKY'S 3D HOCKEY '98" will be
released on the Nintendo 64 and Sony Playstation platforms by
Christmas 1997. The N64 version is speculated to be a 128 megabit

console versions.
