Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi, Thrasher, and Alex Miller discuss the Simpsons NES Trilogy (Bart Vs. The Space Mutants, Bart Vs. The World, Bartman Meets Radioactive Man) with Dan Kitchen, Game Designer on those titles and many more! Featuring puzzles, platforming, and a look that is rather successful at recreating the show on a 8-bit platform, these games are better than one might remember. After the interview, Mat, Thrasher, and Alex discuss the loads of Simpsons video games they've played over the decade aside from the NES titles.  The Simpsons Arcade Game is a fun take on the beat-em-up genre (Final Fight, Streets of Rage). While the quality of gameplay varies for later titles like Bart's Nightmare or Virtual Bart, most of these games have imaginative levels and fun art (Bart is a pig! Throw tomatoes at Principal Skinner's ass!). Two more obscure Simpsons titles of note are the walking simulator Virtual Springfield and the Grand Theft Auto knock-off Hit & Run.  Sequelcast 2 and Friends is part of the Greenlit Podcast Network Follow the show on Twitter @Sequelcast2 Listen to Marc with a C's music podcast Discography Buy Mat's books (Podcast You Nerd!, The Films of Uwe Boll Vol. 1: The Video Game Movies!)  Buy Thrasher's tabletop RPG supplements from DriveThruRPG Watch Alex Miller's YouTube series The Trailer Project --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
