- A playthrough of Acclaim's 1991 license-based platformer for the NES, The Simpsons: Bart vs. the World.
In this playthrough, I collect all of the hidden Krusty collectables, unlocking the final stage and the best ending.
(You can find my video of the Master System version here: • The Simpsons: Bart vs.... )
Bart vs. the World, the direct sequel to The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants ( • The Simpsons: Bart vs.... ), appeared on store shelves a scant eight months after the release of its predecessor.
There are no aliens to thwart this time around. Instead, The Krusty Show hosts an art competition sponsored by Mr. Burns. Bart enters and wins, not knowing that the competition is merely a contrived ruse to lure Bart into situations in which he might easily be murdered by Mr. Burns' relatives.
There are four main levels to work through: you fight Fu Manchu Burns in China, The Abominable Snow Burns at the North Pole, Ramses Burns in Egypt, and Eric von Burns in Hollywood.
The stages are more focused on precision platforming than the item collection of Bart vs. the World, making it feel like a very different game despite the similarities in graphics, sound, and controls. Most areas have you throwing cherry bombs at enemies as you leap between tiny platforms in search of the exit sign. Most of the stages are wide, open areas that encourage exploration, and there are tons of items tucked away in the corners if you care to go looking for them.
The controls feel just as awkward and rigid as they did in Bart vs. the Space Mutants, and the stages are loaded with jumps that require both A and B to be pressed at the exact same time. It can be super frustrating in a couple spots (especially in the first North Pole stage), but for the most part, it works, and it's overall a fair bit easier than the first game was.
The quality of the graphics and sound are about on par with those in Bart vs. the Space Mutants, as well. The backdrops are better detailed, though they tend to be drab and repetitive, and the cutscenes look great. The sound fares about the same - it's better varied, but the drone of the music comes off similarly to the first game's. It was a real shame, though, that it lacks any digitized voice samples.
Between stages, you can take part in minigames for extra lives. Most of them are simple, like a quick game of Concentration or the shell game... and then there are the slider puzzles. I won't go on a rant here, but I will say that there are few things I like less in my video games than slider puzzles.
Overall, The Simpsons: Bart vs. the World feels like a step down from Bart vs. the Space Mutants. The lack of any of the show's humor or personality in the stage design really hurts the overall experience, but the gameplay is solid and the game is still fairly fun. If you liked the original, you'll probably find something to like here, too.
At the very least, I found it much more palatable than I did the sequel, Bartman Meets Radioactive Man ( • The Simpsons: Bartman ... ).

I remember when me and Bart were the same age. Now I’m the same age as Homer.
✋
i was just noticing today how i went from looking like bart to slightly like homer - a little bald, scruff beard
Doh! 😣 At least you not the same age as Mr. Burns.
@@notsureiL not yet .. just give time to germinate .. excellent..
How old are you
This was a frequent blockbuster rental.
I always rented this game from there but never bought it haha
Yup. In May of 1991. Rented it twice.
I actually played through this game back when it was new. It pissed me off how difficult it was but it made me really want to finish it that much more! It took a long time, the platforming is just crazy sometimes
Este jogo é muito difícil, mas é muito divertido
this game 🎮 🕹️ is very difficult but very fun
This game was insanely hard. I never beat it to this day
It's not as inspired as Bart vs the Space Mutants, but it's not nearly as dull as Bartman Meets Radioactive Man. Bart vs the World is pretty solid, especially for an NES game based on a non-Disney cartoon.
*_"Bart Vs. The World"_* on the NES. This is what *_"Space Mutants"_* should've been. Just your average (albeit mediocre) 2D platformer with *NO* collect-a-thon nonsense. Too bad the controls still suck.
You certainly have to admit that the developers were ambitious with the minigames - unless they were just trying to use up the remaining space on the cartridge.
@@JFJD It is a surprisingly large cart. It's 3 megabits.
@Ishaan Jaxtyn Sockpuppets having a conversation.
Of course now the Simpsons are owned by disney due to the fox acquisition
What a incredible sequel to The Space Mutants
Mr. Burns: "And to think, I've chosen that Simpson brat's miserable attempt at artwork!"
Bart: (corrects Mr. Burns) "Bart!"
Homer: "Don't correct the man, Brat!"
“Lisa, don’t get in the way of your wealthy brother’s pea”
here i am after soooo many years watching how to complete the game, I played this in my childhood but neve pass to throug the ice caves, it was so difficult for me... good memories
this is so nostalgic.. the feeling of a sense of accomplishment as a kid when you finish this game... I remember playing this game during typhoon months in our area
Mad respect for you for being able to play this so well, I remember not even getting past the 1st level, the music also made me crazy if I listened to it for too long 😂
It was pretty horrible music.
I remember this old game. I could never get past the ice caves as a kid, but I had fun with the trivia & mini games.
The Simpsons: Bart Vs. the World looks like definite improvement over the first Simpsons title for the NES. For one thing, the frame story is good enough to have been the basis of one of the TV episodes.
This game was so hard as a kid. I never beat it
same here
I’ve gotten halfway through it. Like to level 5 and then have to return it to. Videorama in Chesapeake,VA. This was Mid Spring 1991.
Lol David Crane and Garry Kitchen worked on this one!
Had this game as a kid but I never got past the first stage of the second world, the controls of this game are a fucking nightmare.
bart's nightmare?
@@thecunninlynguist No but the controls in that game suck too. The 2D Simpsons games are a trainwreck.
Same, as soon as he got to the second map, it was all foreign, I don't know what I couldn't beat lol maybe the puzzle 🧩 who knows
Same. I crushed the first map and was satisfied as a kid. Got to be bartman on the ship and skate down the wall of China. F this cave business. Turned it off at 2-1. The nostalgia is crazy though
Played this game as a kid & it was OK but not great but had to use Game Genie to beat it & had a hard time with the Final stages of the game. Too much jumping!! The puzzle game is something I can’t stand.
90s were the best decade of all times
I never made it past the ice caves. I couldn't move that icicle far enough over to get past it. Infuriating.
This game was difficult, but I finished it many times when I was young. I tryed it back on an emulator not long ago. Urf... I can't believe how I was a good gamer when I was 7-8.
I had this one back in the day, and it was charming in a way, i loved the graphics and music, the platforming was okay once you mastered the A+B jump.
I think I spent like 2 months straight after work just trying to beat the crypt at the end. Thanks for this, because im trying to beat this on my homebrew and could not remember where all the Krusty Kollectables were.
I wear tinted lenses due to light sensitivity so many games appear darker than normal, but I had to take a peek over my rims at this one, just do make doubly sure. Those are indeed some drab colors; it almost looks to me as though the TV is about to die! I'd absolutely rather play this _Simpsons_ adventure over _Virtual Bart_ though, any day.
Na its ur googly eyes😂 games vibrant af
@@TheRisingTide89Yes, that faded-yet-darkened palette of colors that just screams, "I am a 25-year-old CRT display that's about to give up the ghost".
Amazing game! My childhood :)
How did you play this game got me dizzy 😵💫 already
Ah yes, the super early times of the Simpsons where no one besides the show’s staff quite knew what to do with Mr. Burns in order to make him the antagonist against The Simpsons.
Wow! My brothers used to play this game when we were little. Even I played it for the trivia or puzzles or bonus games. Good times.
This music is agonising
you just described every ed sheeran song
@@_Majoras 👏👏
@@_Majoras Truer words have never been spoken!! 👍👍
I hate Ed Sheeran, too.
This is one of the hardest NES games I ever played due to terrible controls.
My favorite cartoon show, I like this game, so many memories.
What a great ending. It's nice to see it after all these years lol. Thanks
Back in the day I had one of those little drawing pad things with the pen that was a magnet that you could draw on it with. I remember vividly my brother writing down where the cards were in the matching game. Did the same in Mario 3.
Fu Manchu Burns, what the hell?
It's only a matter of time before the woke PC soycialist mob cancels this game for being "waycist against Chinese"
Memories of playing this on Nintendo8
GG.
I remember the sound of my controller as it creaked and popped playing this particular game. The long jump maneuver was some sort of combo that wreaked havoc on joints of the hand. My grip would fatigue mid air often causing a poorly timed and tragic plummet to death. So many Barts died in this manner in the 90s.
This game was brutal!
Ah to be young again and indent for hours a sharp plastic corner into the soft creases of my then new buck skin.
I remember this game from my childhood and loved playing the bonus games. Unfortunately I NEVER was able to defeat Fu Manchu Burns and ended up giving away my cartridge for that reason 😒
What a great ending
actually i had the best cow for lunch 🍔
Game was pretty hard as a kid but so much fur especially skate boarding the Great Wall
I felt like a cool kid when I skated on the Great Wall 😊 90s memories.
My most vivid memory of this game was a collision bug which got me stuck in a wall while falling down a shaft in Soundstage 2. No enemies to kill me, no timer to run down to lose a life; gotta reset. So close to the end, too. I gave up after that.
Logo: On a black background, we see the word "Acclaim" in a gray-gradient color, on top of a rainbow gradient arrow-like line facing the left with the C's made of "less than" signs or left arrows [
This game was so confusing to me as a child, I really never totally understood how to play, but I ended up beating 2 or 3 times if I recall correctly.
Nostalgia
This Bart game reminds me of old games
You know man this game is old. Came out in 91 30 years ago.
same
It's better than "Bart Vs the Space Mutants," but it's still a chore to play. I much prefer the more straightforward game of this to Space Mutants' flawed puzzles.
I owned this thing. And yes, I beat it with the proper ending. It's *awful.*
"Why you LITTLE--! --I didn't do it"
that beat at the beginning with smithers and burns was pretty dope cant find it lol
I use to zen-out to the China Skateboarding level, it was so calming.
Which emulator are you using? The one I use has a weird color palette, at least with this game
I loved this game, my best friend had it and I used to borrow it almost weekly since he didn't like it that much, I was perhaps 10 years old when I played this but literally hurts me watching you solving the puzzles, even when I was 10 I solved them very fast and you struggle way too much.
Bart vs. Za Warudo
Haha! Good one.
If we're using Engrish here, the pronunciation would technically be *_"Bāto Vāsus za Wārudo"_* (Bah-to Vah-sus Zah Wah-roo-doe).
@@Dorian_Scott
No. The Japanese languages does not contain characters or recognize the sounds for “va” or “sus.” In Japanese, versus would be basasu or バーサス (Ba - Sa Su)
@@englishpuritan668 😐 Oh... My bad. I didn't realize that until now. I often forget about the Japanese substituting "Va" for *_"Ba"_* . I guess my mind was kinda going towards them enunciating worlds like *_"Virtual"_* , thus resulting in my incorrectness there...
Eh, mistakes happen.
50:28 pie throwing test
I had this game when I was 6. For years I would stop halfway through the 2nd level and reset b/c I was so scared lol.
Wow, just saw David Crane's name in the opening credits. Is that why this game has such a Boy and His Blob feel?
China was very hard it's like battletoads stage 2
My sister's dad still has his copy of this game and every other simpsons game ever made.
I remember this game i was at elementary school when this came out what i remember was the cemetery stage i came very close but i lost it was chilly
If I had bought this game, I would have been pissed off at Acclaim for tricking me into thinking this was a port of the Konami arcade game, since Mr Burns was the main villain.
When blockbusters was popping
#LoveSimpsonsPrime.
Aunque se supone que su precuela Bart vs The Space Mutants es mejor según los críticos este me parece mejor es más variado la música es mejor todas las melodías son muy buenas pero mis favoritas son las de Krusty (el tema del show, del mapa, y los rompecabezas) y del Señor Burns (la de todos los jefes) y por supuesto el tema de Los Simpson que es el mismo del Space Mutants y los diseños de los niveles aunque faltó un poco más de detalle pero el juego se ve atractivo pero lo malo es que no corrigieron los controles el que más me causa conflicto son los saltos y sobretodo cuando Bart está en hielo es muy difícil controlarlo y lo malo es que los controles quedaron igual en el de Bartman pero siento que el vs The World es el más "jugable" aunque es difícil pero por lo menos pude llegar a Hollywood mi hermano si pudo terminar el juego y en cambio el vs The Space Mutants nunca pudimos terminarlo ni el Bartman Meets Radioactive Man y aunque muchos criticaron el vs The World sobretodo por su dificultad y controles pero para mí es el mejor de los tres juegos mencionados obviamente el mejor juego de Los Simpson que ha habido es el de arcade
I never made it past level 1 as a kid lol
I remember i just to played this game. I was passing the ice level with a lot of attemps of beating the level until the game freezes and start over again it was annoying.
I haven't been able to complete this since I was 5, because every ROM dump I've tried, with any emulator, is "broken" and you cannot pass the "Sphinx climbing" part of Egypt due to the climbing mechanics being bugged out. These versions also always have the same graphical glitches appearing on the Exit sign in the first level, the China Junk. Can anyone help me? I've asked about this years ago, but people just said "what are you talking about, my ROM works normally?" I've been wanting to re-play this from beginning to end for almost 30 years soon...
edit: Finally found the solution. You gotta hunt down the 1996 ROM dump. Apparently I had always had ones from 2000, and that dump of this game is faulty.
Para acceder al tercer nivel en Hollywood si o si había que recoger todos los ítems Krusty ocultos
I did not like the simpsons at first, but now I do.
The controls of this game pissed me off but i love the side games and the simpsons trivia etc
also, the second level and going forward is where the game jumps the big one and the controls really suffer there. What sloppy platforming. made people quit the game otherwise.
I liked this game but I always wondered why there were so many Bart focused games made in the 90s
Characters with attitude were the trope of the ‘90s...
@@TrueSolunar oh okay.see despite the fact the early simpson games were fun for me i always thought it was odd to focus on bart and just Bart and not market the other characters more like lisa in the games.see Bart Simpson was a character that a lot parent groups probably didn't like to much as he was a rotton very poor student and troublemaker concept often in the show.
I liked bart to play as occassionly when I was younger but it was probably bad business for a game company to market such a delinquent concept so excessively in those early games because of concerned adults rather than focus on the entire Simpson family more despite that Bart was somewhat extreme and had 'attitude'. Don't get me wrong the games were still fun anyway.
Attitude could be taken in many different ways… Take TMNT and Battletoads, for example… You have kick-ass reptiles and amphibians spouting ‘90s slang and dispensing justice… Classic Sonic was very impatient and equally expressive with his idle animations, combining both in Sonic CD into a Game Over Easter Egg… Bubsy was a failed attempt at this, and just wound up talking nonstop and making bad puns… There are a few mascots that also failed, but I can’t recall their names at this time…
Yea woulda been way cooler to get an NES game playing as homer.
@@cratedivizion that seems like a cool idea to play as homer on the nes even though newer gamecube games let you play as him mostly
Definitely one of those where the fuck do I go type of games
Broo this game confused me so hard like how did the game know I was from fiji bro! Then I found out that all the copies said that.
Cuantos recuerdos😢
Este jogo é muito difícil, mas é muito divertido
this game 🎮 🕹️ is very difficult but very fun
Hi I’m thinking of picking this up and are the questions randomized
Yeah, there are quite a few.
I had a cow once. Her name was Moo Cow
The last cow I had already had a name. It was called hamburger.
@El Gato Felix *_MY_* cow's name was spaghetti.
@@NintendoCompletehey that's what we called my cow too after the funeral! Great name eh?
I know a cow named Patty...
This is the only game my dad bought New for me at Circuit City. And I could never pass it
"I just wanted to point out that the game is titled Bart vs. The World, there isn't really a lot in the world. No s**t, right? Just Egypt, China, the North Pole and Hollywood. Pretty f***ing educational, right? When I was 11 years old, my whole world was video games. Just locked in my room playing Bart vs. The Space Mutants and all this crap. Man, I've wasted all my time on this s**t. I want it back. It ruined my life! Bart's my ass and Krusty's my balls. F**k this s**t, now I'm gonna eat my own shorts." James Rolfe, The Angry Video Game Nerd
Lol. Jogava esse jogo quando criança e nem lembrava.
Next to the Simpson's Arcade Game, Mr. Burns is the bad guy in this one as well.
32:21 why bart shirt is blue? Instead of his red shirt.
Just bought a copy on NES
Come on A
i remember played it with 9yo and it looks too hard for a child to play
I can never ever ever ever win any of the sliding puzzles
Bart vs Space Mutants is much better. This one is pretty meh. Have just finished this on my tablet and it says I missed some items for a surprise. Will try Bart vs Radioactive Man now :P
its the same engine as bart vs spacemutan
There were definitely a lot of problems with these Simpsons NES games. Bart vs the Space Mutants had its charm though. This one is worse.
¿Ese es el final del juego Bart vs The World?,¿tirandole pasteles al Señor Burns y a su asistente?.
Yup :)
Fu Manchu Burns implies that there is a Chinese Smithers with his crew.
What happens
After pie throwing
That’s it, reset it.
The Simpsons: Hit & Run, the arcade game by Konami and The Simpsons Game are the best games based on this franchise IMO. Couldn't get into the NES games; the GB/C games are okay, but nothing special I'd say.
The mini-golf game on the GB was pretty fun, though!
aka Super Mario Bros. 3
Rented this one as a kid but never finished it. Was pretty bland compared to Space Mutants honestly.
April 2022
I never beat this. The platforming is the worst, and the music will drive you mad.
One of the harder games i played
Kids with nintendo controllers and sweaty hands didn't stand a chance.
Creo que nunca lo termine pero no se por que recuerdo todos los niveles 🤷🏻♂️
This game is bullshit, but I love it... Same for another Simpson NES games xd
Not wanting to quote AVGN, but what has this game to do with the world.
We only see, China, Egypt, the North Pole and Hollywood.
Plus all the villains are relatives of mr burns. So they could’ve called it Bart vs Burns and co.
I still have original cartride nes game give my friends , play on my famiclone, horrible game, but very fun🤣🤣🤣😊
Why is bart pushing mongo tho lol
