Comment on How is nobody talking about the fact that The Simpsons Arcade Game got home ports to DOS and Commodore 64 but not NES, SNES or Genesis -- and didn't arrive on console until Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3?

I know this is not a popular take, but in my opinion The Simpsons Arcade wasn’t a very good game. I believe it’s purely a novelty product, it falls short when compared to almost any other well known beat’em up from the era.

I would disagree. I think it really improved upon the gameplay that we saw in the first TMNT arcade game. You got combo attacks with the different characters, and you could pick up various items and weapons. It also had some really huge bosses that were kind of impressive at the time, and had some mini games between stages. There were also a lot of interesting things that happened within the stages.
