Sounds like you're thinking about Bart's Nightmare on the SNES... one of the first SNES games I ever played (at a friend's house... I couldn't bring myself to own it when I has SMW)

That's the one! ;D
So, the other one is the arcade one then - I remember playing it at Tilt at Miranda Westfield (Sydney, Australia), when it still existed (when I was a kid) - nobody knows where that is, of course, this being an international site and all... ;D

Is that The Simpsons: Attack of the Space Mutants? Had that on the Amiga. I could get to the second level before dying horribly on spikes (in a mall).
It was a bit rubbish. Came out on the NES too, but I don't think the graphics were as good.

Nah, I think it had Mr Burns and Smithers (I think) kidnap Maggie, and you picked either Bart, Homer, Lisa or Marge (I think) - it was an arcade game on the machines - you know the type where the screen moves rightwards on a street scene, the stops, and enemies attack from all sides - you fight them, and then the screen starts moving again to the next bit, stops, etc.
The first boss was a giant wrestler.
I remember playing this at arcade places - it was fun.
Is this the one you mean DIU?

I remember playing this at arcade places - it was fun. Is this the one you mean DIU? Sure sounds like it. What I mostly remember was that each character had their own special moves, and Marge’s was a Vacuum (or some other cleaning device – maybe a broom), and that when you died and your character came back they’d be in a super hero suit. Magic Mountain had one, as does a sporting complex not too far from my house. And Magic Mountain wasn’t really a theme park, more of an arcade, but with water slides, dodgem cars, dodgem boats and mini-golf. So in summary, and awesome place, until they tore it down.  We still have Intensity in Marion though, which has 2 awesome F-Zero AX machines near the door, and has Nintendo-based competitions from time to time, so all is not lost. Oh, and that place has the new Simpsons pinball, which rocks. |

Update on the arcade machines:
DIU, it appears I was incorrect... it's not in Adelaide...
It's in Newcastle, which is better for me, as I'm in Sydney, and Newcastle is very close (in terms of inter-city travel that is). Where in the world did I get Adelaide from?
Anyway - the machines are sold on-line, so I have been informed, but I don't have a website as of yet - give me a bit longer to get that bit of info, and then you can check it out (provided there actually is a website and I wasn't misinformed about that).
Otherwise, I'll have to track down a phone number for the 'shop'.
Update over.

Nah, The Simpsons arcade game was a Streets of Rage/Golden Axe type of game. It was one of the best Simpsons games ever made, IMO... except for Bart's Nightmare.  |

And I don't have a Game Boy Player either, though I have considered getting one to make getting GB screenshots a little easier. Or a little more legal? If Nintendo didn't release it in a console or handheld capacity (or as a Virtual Boy), then I don't have it. |

Let's see... I used to own a NES but my brother tripped on the controller wire while I was playing "The Three Stooges".  No G&Ws but I do own two of those Stadlbauer MiniClassic G&Ws from '98 or '99. No SNES No Virtual Boy No Game Boy No DS No Game Boy Advance SP No Game Boy Player No Famicom Disc System |

Amazed to hear that you don't have an SNES! Once I kept playing Super Famicom during all time of my summer holidays!
And I think most people here do not have the Famicom DS (DS = Disk System ;D).

You're right about that most people don't have one.
*huggles his FDS*

I think I might get an FDS or a Virtual Boy off of eBay for my birthday.
If I did, I'd be a happy camper.

I have a multitude of NES clones( or more like Famicom cause of the shape of the cartige). So that means I don't offialy own a NES...
I don't have a Virtual Boy and I'm not planning to but one ether. Oh I don't have the original Game boy.
I wish I could get 64DD, but.......I can't.
