In 1991, The Simpsons Arcade Game brought Springfield’s chaos to life, letting fans punch, kick, and laugh their way through one of the most beloved beat-’em-ups of its era. In this episode, we explore how Konami captured the show’s sharp humor and distinctive art style, turning America’s favorite animated family into arcade icons. We trace the early days of The Simpsons in gaming, from Matt Groening’s comic strip roots and the hit TV series to the wave of 8-bit and 16-bit titles that followed. Our conversation also highlights the franchise’s impact on gaming culture and nostalgia. Join us as we brawl, joke, and relive The Simpsons Arcade Game on today’s trip down Memory Card Lane.
