I think that Marge photo is a reference to the season 1 episode Homer's Night Out, where Bart buys a spy camera and takes a bunch of candid photos of people, including his parents.
It's incredible how if that episode had happened any significant time later it would have been immediate rule34 Photoshop fodder 😂
Bart vs Space Mutants, Bart's House Of Weirdness and The Simpsons Hit & Run are the Holy Trilogy of Simpsons games, great times, huge nostalgia ❤
Never heard of this, thanks for filling me in brother!
Fever dream is a great way to describe it. I remember i saw a few photos in a magazine on a hospital's waiting room while waiting for my great aunt to be done with charity work and then... never saw it again for like 20 years.
I ended up getting this as a kid only because the DOS port of the arcade game wasn't in stock at the store.
There is something so appealing about classic DOS games that have this sorta 2.5D point and click adventure style type game. I know it's not point and click but the way the environment is designed & the way Bart can navigate & interact with things in his surroundings.. I wish we could see more games similar to this coming out nowadays. I really miss quality 2D, 2.5D games
Neat, someone who actually bothers to go an actual mile than to quit at the start and say "Bad game!" before Interation begs. You get my respect.
Huh, saw this once at my friend's place long, long ago. Had a laugh at the "duck" or swan being used as a guard dog/enemy in Burns' mansion. Then again, heard once that such fowl were used as guard dogs in Ancient Rome.
This is probably the best Simpsons game on DOS
I played this one on my family's IBM PS/2. I know Bart's House of Weirdness doesn't compare to the Simpsons Arcade Game gameplay wise but I definitely appreciated how it felt more like the TV show due to the backgrounds being based on actual locations seen in the show, unlike the arcade game, where most of the locations were original to the game (with a handful of locations from the TV show in weird, non-canon places; I don't care how many reconfigurations that Springfield has had over the decades, Moe's Bar was never at the back of a cave outside the Arcade Game).
I wonder how much of Bart's marketability was by design back then.
This is one game I remember fondly from my youth. It's not a good game but it looks great. You have to remember that the pickings were really slim in the 90s. The arcade game was great but you couldn't play that at home. The NES games were god awful. Virtual Springfield was fun but wasn't a game and the SNES games were just okay. It really wasn't until Hit & Run that we had a competent Simpsons Game.
You could play the arcade game at home. The MS-DOS version of it was almost arcade perfect. There was also a Commodore 64 version, which sucked for obvious reasons.
@@bradallen8909 oh that's right. I don't know if I got that as a kid. I knew the arcade game from the arcades and then mame when the internet became bigger but getting games back then wasn't as easy.
@@frankb5728 Sure it was, you just needed a modem and access to some decent BBS's.
Things were actually much better BEFORE the internet, in my opinion.
it's strange how flat his head looks when even much smaller Bart sprites in other games managed to give the impression they had his spiky style but this one doesn't even try. It's just a lil observation of what was otherwise decent Simpson graphics at the time.
Yeah … I’ve never heard of this..
i love DOS and Simpsons…
Lets go😊
I love “virtual bart” 😊
It feels immersive in concept .
The Marc Maron of video games delivers another unique quality video. Keep them coming!
Cook book, mutants ….
Twilight zone reference!
Huh, and here I thought I knew all the Simpsons games
This game was hard AF
i am a recovering bartmaniac
One of my childhood faves. Great review. :)
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I do prefer the Bart era over the Homer Era
Well there's that.
A hard mode. Because of course that’s what this already insanely difficult game needed.
Never even heard of this game
Odd the that the krusty doll said I didn't do it when the episode Bart get famous didn't air until 1994 in season 5. This game was made before it. Bart got famous on krusty the clown show tv show got famous for saying I didn't do it for those who didn't know in that episode.
it was said by Krusty first, in the season 1 episode ‘Krusty Gets Busted’
Better than "Virtual Springfield" for dos.
Simpsons games were such a difficult mess. The Arcade game would be the only good game up until Hit and Run, so being a Simpsons gamer was such a suffering time
@Herrenmoralist I have no opinion since I skipped it
Kristy’s Super Fun House was good fun
@@TheBrozKristy Carlson Romano?
I preferred road rage. lots of cheats to unlock lots of cars and challenging to get through. hit and run felt like a collectathon
I remember maga conservatives hated our Simpson T-shirts too. They repeat their garbage every generation.
I had this game as a kid. I wanted so much to like it but the controls were terrible and ruined it.
I hated this game as a kid. I have no idea how I even got it, and it was way too hard for no reason.
Some people swear up and down by the Simpsons. I just never found it funny
