I would be more interested in NHL Arcade if it didn't limit me to "Red Team" or "Blue Team" and just a selection of All-Stars. I want my Sharks players and unis, damnit!

@Nael It's only an XBLA game, though! Don't they have all that in the full retail NHL game? I haven't played it. I'm more of an NBA Live person.

Still nothing beats the 3 on 3 sports action like Sega Soccer Slam.
