I recently replayed this at an Arcade near my house. Credits gave us 23 lives. Finally beat it without continuing, haha. Still, this game is awesome. Blind Nostalgia isn't a factor, here, as I didn't play it until I was 14.
Pretty much the only beat em up/button masher I've ever liked, even if it was just nostalgia, although EA's iphone facsimile was mildly decent
"I'll be glad to give it another go, even if it is a little crusty these days."
I see what you did there, Sterling.

Hmm, I thought this was one of those 'never gonna happen' licensing fuckpiles.
It would be pretty sweet if it did come out.

Nostalgia isn't a factor, when will you realize that a good game is a good game no matter the age. Also like KingSigy, I played the game later in life, so yeahhhh, no nostalgia on my part.
Not sure why people thought it would never happen as of late - it's been on iOS for months now - this makes sense.

I've fucking waited so long. This has never been released for anything before. Keeping my fingers crossed for Die Hard Arcade as well.

That takes me back. I beat it once years ago. Goodness knows how many quarters me and another kid put on the machine to do it though. I must have been 10 years old.
*drool* I don't care if it is outdated: I want it dammit! Ugh, I remember pumping almost 5 dollars into this game once when my sister went shopping. God, so many memories.
This, X-Men and Metal Slug are some of my favorite arcade memories.

omg omg omg
Sorry, nostalgia or not, I've been waiting for this since my days with the NES and the Genesis.
If I hadn't played Hit & Run for the PS2, I'd still call it the best Simpsons ever

The iphone release wasn't the same game though, so I guess "facsimile" wasn't the right word to use. The iphone game was just a beat em up that was obviously made in the same style as this game. There are similarities, but it's a different game.
Awesomeness. Now all I need is Captain America and The Avengers and I'll have all my favorite beat-em-ups
Im just glad they're releasing it on something with buttons! I tried it on my ipod touch. Horrible controls!
I loved this game as a kid. I played it recently however, and it hasn't really aged well, much like a lot of the arcade classics. Still, I'm down with this provided they include online at a decent price.
That's nifty and spiffy and all of that good stuff.The Simpsons arcade game, unlike the show, definitely hasn't outstayed its welcome. Then again, it has been gone from the scene for so long that it hasn't even had the chance.
Too bad that the Bucky O'Hare arcade game from Konami or the Dungeons and Dragons arcade game from Capcom is out of the question for home release pretty much permanently.

Nice. Now if I could get some of my other faves I still play on MAME on my 360 like Dungeons and Dragons, Punisher, Aliens vs Predator, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, Spider-man, Bucky O'Hare, and Cowboys of Moo Mesa, I'd be set.
@Mag: I don't think the iOS version is the same as the one here. I think it's a beat-em-up with just Homer, but I've yet to play it, so...
Finally, Ive been waiting for this for years. I'd be really cool if I buy the PSN version and it works for PS3 and Vita.
@ Mag & DF - The iOS version was a Homer-only beat 'em up that had the family as brief assists. It was put out by EA, and was fun, though short.
One of my favorite arcade games; beat the whole thing with my mom at Disney World when I was seven, and played it again both on MAME and at an arcade while vacationing in Portland recently. Just as good as I remember it. Can't wait to get my hands on it on a console; here's hoping for HD-remastered sprites and Trophies/Achievements that'll merit a purchase.
