There were Simpson games on consoles other then the NES during the 16-bit era and they starred Bart those being Bart's Nightmare, and Virtual Bart for the Genesis, and SNES respectively.
“You know! If this game was a person... it’d be a person I wouldn’t like!” There’s not even a single curse in that joke and it’s one of the funniest jokes I’ve heard in a while XD

It never gets old to rewatch Family Guy, can’t say the same for Simpsons, but that’s my opinion
It's because he knows how to satisfy his fans and doesn't have a major studio breathing down his neck.
