  • A complete playthrough of Acclaim's 1992 NES game, The Simpsons: Bartman Meets Radioactive Man.
    The third of the trio of platformers to appear on the NES featuring The Simpsons. I suppose, then, that it has the unenviable distinction of being the final part of a series that steadily went down in quality with each release. It's not particularly awful, but without the character and atmosphere of the earlier two, most likely due to not feeling like it's a Simpsons game - the near complete lack of anything distinctly Simpsons to be found throughout the game is really disappointing. At least, though it's not a cakewalk, it's substantially easier than Bart vs. the Space Mutants and Bart vs. the World.
    This is a rerendering of the original video I had posted - it seems like some voodoo force possessing RUclips screwed the audio on the original. It was perfectly fine, and then one day it suddenly sounds like it's playing through the DAC on the Sega Genesis it's so distorted. So, here's a fix. Thanks +HoneycombTPM for letting me know about it, much appreciated.

    I always thought it was strange how prominent 'Bartman' was in early Simpsons merchandise and the comics, even though Bart only wore that costume for a single scene in season 2.

      Man that was an insane phenomenon, especially before memes were a thing. Remember the single that played on the radio for awhile? I had a couple of Bartman t-shirts too! I was so proud of them when I was like 7 or 8 - like that was a cool kids outfit. Lmao how lame that thought now seems as an adult 30 years later. Still, the hype was real.

      @Leandro Aude The shirt thing was actually caused by early designs for Bart having a blue shirt and most early merchandise being based off of those designs. IIRC. The arcade game was based primarily on the early designs too.

      It is rather a shame that a lot of these Simpsons titles turned out so bad but it was not uncommon with licenced games.
      I think rather than better controls, Bart vs the Space Mutants, Bart vs the World, and Bartman meets Radioactive Man would have to be redesigned from the ground up to be good.
      Probably the only reason why I would be somewhat interested if they were remake and improved is because these games were made during the Simpsons' golden age.

    Great memories of playing this shit nonstop, especially around the snowy holiday season, right next to the christmas tree. Clunky as hell, but it had a certain charm to it. Gotta say, I feel like the second half of the game felt like the developers just went, "fuckit, let's just finish this damned thing, already!". That last "fight" was particularly disappointing.

      Oh same, to the point that I forgot about it for about 2 decades, only to start googling in desperate hope to find what the game was.
      I've spent hours and hours trying to find the game (it's been going on for a few years) and tonight, I sat down, I just said, this is the night I finally make it, and I did :D
      It was all about the sewer level which I just couldn't get through when I was a kid, I was maybe like 5-6 years old but that image of the sewers is just so deeply embedded into my brain that I knew I would recognize it as soon as I see a single screenshot, and that is precisely how it happened. One image on google and I knew it was it. It was so long ago that I forgot who the protagonist is, if I could remember it was Bartman it would be damn easy to find, but I had no recollection of the character at all, but I vividly remembered the level.
      I googled countless combinations of words to finally hit the nail on the head this evening and finally find the damn game.

      The game keeps track of all the additional HPs you pick up, even if you don't see them all on the screen. So, you'll always see a max of 5 HP, but you won't see a difference if you go down from 11 to 10, for example.
