Ice hockey fans who are also fans of Ice Hockey got an old-school surprise during the Stanley Cup finals earlier this month. During an intermission, an animation driven by 12 different high-powered projectors made it look as if the classic Nintendo Entertainment System game Ice Hockey was playing out right on the real-life ice, in gargantuan size.
