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.

well the new simpsons game for the next gen console looks a lot like it and here is hoping to see the arcade classic in it even though it was made by another companyt well we can always dream

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?
