I’m trying to play the PC version so no emulation here. As for the issue, the game simply freezes on launch (right after the EA Sports splash).
It seems to be a Linux (well, WINE) related issue since I was able to boot it up on Win10 a moment ago. It might be an problem with the graphics card detection tool failing during setup (it can’t load a dll for that) but I have no idea how to fix that.
I might have to spend some time looking into it now that I have a lead. Thanks for that.

Out of sheer curiosity, what’re the issues you’re experiencing with NHL99?
I’d have thought a title that old (25+ years) would emulate just fine?
