This is probably the best arcade experience I ever had in my life. I'm so glad I was able to get a few group plays in at my local arcade before they shut down in the mid-2000s. A few years later I would be able to relive the experience on XBOX Live Arcade with their port -- which was awesome! It included online co-op and perfectly captured the arcade experience once again.
Wow, the great memories of coin games and when Simpsons was relevant. 90s were great times to be ignorant. Nevertheless...
Here we go...
The Simpsons arcade game. I remember laying this game at our crummy Flea Market. I didn't get far because I was broke and had to waste my money for church offering. What is god gonna do with 25cents???
The Simpsons arcade game was a fun game during its time. Now it looks like filth. I mean, during that time I loved the Simpsons. I watched it every week 5/6 days of the week. The game was state of the art back in those days.
Graphics: for its time was nice.
Gameplay: Was repetitive of hitting NPC's. That's all you did. They had a boss but all you did was hit the NPC.
Development: It was a closed ended game.
Characters: Lastly, it featured tons of your favourite Springfield residents.
Overall, a good game for its time. Although today the game looks really ugly and "cringe" (excuse my language.)

THE SIMPSONS, in my opinion, is one of the best arcade games I have ever played. Even though I haven't played any arcade game for very long, I enjoy it very much. In addition, even though I've never made it to the last level, I enjoy the game very much as well, even though I've never owned the game. However, when and if this game is made available for download on the Nintendo Wii, this is one game that's definitely going to be on my list. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that the people at Sega Genesis know how to keep video game fanatics entertained. Now, in conclusion, if you're a video game fanatic, this is definitely one you'll want to play and own.

Back in the day when I'd go to a Pizza Hut, or a Chuck E. Cheese's I'd always see this game. I only played it once or twice but now that I have an Arcade game emulator, I've every opportunity to play this game, and if you haven't, I suggest you do!
In the game Maggie is kidnapped by Smithers (who has a diamond that Maggie is sucking literally!), and the Simpsons clan has to save her!, You can play as either Homer(who uses his fists), Marge(vacuum cleaner), Bart(skateboard), or Lisa(jump rope) as you wander through 6 levels of beat em up action. Can you save Maggie from the hands of Smithers?
Overall, this game is excellent, and it is similar to the TMNT arcade game that was made several years before(Konami made that game, and they also made this game too). If your in an arcade, and see this game, I suggest you try it. It's worth the quarters, or if you have an emulator, then play it on that. It won't cost you a penny(Bless the gods of emulation)! 10/10.
