You perfectly captured how they always tried to turn every property into a platformer, even when it was pointless and made no sense. I can smell the LJN logo on the fictional cartridge.
Love the references to the actual episode the clip is taken from you put in there. The tall man chasing Nelson with the old lady stuck in the rubbish bin, Mr. Burns and Smithers on the bike, Cletus hanging his boots on the power line and Maggie stuck in the news letter box it’s all well done!

I was never able to get that far. Every time I made it to Crusty Burger the game would crash. I think it was because my little cousin spilled chocolate milk on my cartridge while we were playing Mega Man 2 one day.
@SudrianTales mine was a bootleg add-on module for our Tandy trs-80 that my grandpa bought from a guy in the parking lot of K-mart in the next town over.
That might be why it crashed? I emulated this for the footage. I can't tell you where to get the rom but if you do a Google you'll find it pretty easily.
Absolutely incredible work. Love all the little references to the older games. Used to play Bart VS The World all the time back in the day and you completely nailed the visual style. 11/10
Was fully expecting a solid NES vibe that looks nothing like the ACTUAL Simpsons NES games, ans was pleasantly surprised how PERFECTLY you recread those games' vibe specifically. Well done!
I feel like it's missing a couple of useless dead end choices, like if you say yes to Chalmers viewing the Northern Lights in your kitchen, it's a bad end.
This made me happy on so many levels. I was born in 87 so I grew up with the NES. Watching this took me on a nostalgia trip of pure euphoria. The attention to detail was immaculate! In the creativity was sublime. Thank you for making this good sir! I definitely will be finding myself rewatching this time and time again! 🙏
This is perfect, I like how you added gameplay sections that reference the rest of the episodes. I was honestly expecting to see just the clip with an 8-bit filter. But you actually put a lot of work into this.
wasn't Techmobowl "Touchdown!" and Top Gun "Take-Off!" voice sampling too, i think? also, the female police radio operator in Chase H.Q. for Famicom sounded like real voice sampling too.
this video is criminally underrated...only 4.5k views and 380 likes? how? the number of people who have played Bart vs the Space Mutants and knows the Steamed Hams sketch by heart, has to be at least half a million...or more. this better blow up within a year.
1:48 is probably my favorite bit I love that the little verbal spar is turned into a metaphorical boss fight with Skinner LITERALLY dodging the question
With that much audio it would have probably been the most expensive NES cartridge ever, or in a parallel timeline where the Famicom disk system released worldwide it would have taken like half a dozen disks.
@@PenneyPixels I definitely can, I just think that it adds to the hilarity. The most expensive game in a console, and one of the most technically advanced, and it only lasts a few minutes with a small portion of that being actual gameplay.
This makes me wonder if there was ever any FDS game that just didn't use one side for title screen and saving and the other for the actual game, and if there was ever one split into multiple disks like dragon's lair for the commodore Amiga Or if it's even possible
@@ssg-eggunner I don't know how it loaded the data from the disks, if it was all copied once to RAM or if it read the disk as it needed it. If it was the former it doesn't sound viable but if it was the latter then it was certainly possible. I'm only aware that their copy protection was laughably easy to bypass and unauthorized clone disquetes were abundant.
I absolutely love this so much, it felt like actually watching gameplay of Steamed Hams on the NES LMao I love the digitized voices, despite it being not too realistic at the time, still adds to the charm of it especially with the added sfx, absolute great job!
Ahh, the king takes on the classic. I hope this is what catapults this channel into modeststardom. (Steamed Hams hasn't run its course yet! It's still good! It's still good!)
You did an incredible job in homage to Bart vs the Space Mutants, a title i remember from when i was very little and most here probably don't recognize. But some of those screens and animations seemed to reach back through 30 years of memory, and I wanted to thank you for that.
An NES game with this many voice samples would have cost $100 in 1991, which is as much as the console (with two controllers, zapper, and SMB/Duck Hunt cart) cost at that point in its lifespan. Absolutely amazing though, and I love how the gameplay is basically Bart vs the Space Mutants
I always marvel at how skilled players make NES games look easy. I could never avoid the flames in the last stage and had to use a Game Genie to ever see the ending.
This is so delightfully develish. Steamed Hams is one of my favorite memes because of how creative people get with it, and considering they're still making stuff like this YEARS after the meme has already passed speaks wonders. I love the platformer sections and how similar they are to the NES Simpsons games, like how awkward it is to hit the wall with the spray can or the fire with the wine. Amazing work!
It is hard for a kid to be fair, but if I remember correctly Nintendo Power had a whole spread on the game and explained the Utica boss fight pretty well. The days before the Internet!
Haha Skinner's clothes being the exact shade of the wall behind him while they are eating lol. You really captured the NES feel. The little details are so good in this!!! It takes me back
I could never finish the trip to the Krusty Burger level. El Barto always gave me a game over at the end. So seeing all the scenes after that level finally brings me closure!
Incredible attention to detail. Sprite flickering, sounds effects pulled directly from the NES games. Hell, the level to reach the Krusty burger is a 1:1 representation of part of Bart vs. the Space Mutants

The reason the game is so odd, is because the developers used 3/4 of the cartridge memory just on the voice clips.

Well you are an odd game but I must say, you steam a good ham
@@TheSuperMuffinShowyeah but almost all of the dialogue from the original steamed hams fit into this cartridge
I LOVE that the sprites even flicker if there’s too many sprites on screen, that is some true attention to detail right there.
this
It was so natural and so well done that I didn't even bat an eye at it
Literally came down here to say this.
It looks like a romhack of Bart vs. The Space Mutants tbh
I love how he takes damage for checking the kitchen fire lol
I didn't see that until I read your comment, cheers
Does he?
Backdraft.
Imagine getting "game over" at that point (btw, it has more replayability than the original NES games this is based on).
