When are we ever gonna see a re-release of this game for a home console system? It was on the PC a long time ago, but it wasn't very good (and yeah I know you can get it for MAME 'n all). This is one of my all-time favorite multiplayer arcade games and I'd kill to have it on a home console.
Also, if you're interested, here's a video of the entire game being played start to finish:

I fucking love this game, but what always made me wonder was why was there never a sequel the simspons was surprisingly well made for a beat'em up but to my knowledge they never tried to duplicate it.
The Arcade in town had a working original machine with this game, up until they closed, I don't know what happened to it then.

Better start emailing Konami about that one, if you want to see the arcade game included in the new Simpsons game. I can imagine there might be some legal issues with that, though.

Or at least make the new game thats coming out a Beat Em Up that plays like the original. Even throw in some of the Bosses from the Arcade Game. I would love to see the Giant Inflatable Krusty in 3D.

This is one of the only Arcade games I played through start-to-finish, and by god it was fun.
The only arcade game this fun was Ninja Baseball Bat-Man, a TMNT rip-off so absurd it was fucking awesome.

I imagine it will hit XBLA eventually. Sam and I have thought the same thing while playing TMNT Arcade game on live.

This one and Cyber Sled were the only two arcade games I beat that were actual arcade games. They weren't even in an arcade.
God this one was harder than hell though.

I remember when this game came out (1990 or 1991) and the first time I saw it it was on a cruise I was on with my family. I picked Bart and then these college kids came and played the other three characters. It was free play so we got to the end of the game. Being a stupid child I felt like a really cool kid playing that game with them (much like the poster above me feels posting here).

I need to re-up my subscription and find my gray cord, but mine's Raggamofyn. Super Contra will be purchased.
Anywho, I never played this, I think. But I'd appreciate getting the opportunity on XBLA. Is it a beat-'em-up?

I've heard lots of positive things about this game. As a huge Beat 'em up fan I should try this one out immedietly.
