The Simpsons Arcade Game - Legacy

Legacy

Soon after its release in the arcades, the game received ports to Commodore 64 and MS-DOS computers developed by Novotrade. A listing on the Australian Classification Board website, posted on November 9, 2011, hinted at a port of the game being developed by Backbone Entertainment for multiple platforms. In January 2012, Sony announced the launch of a high-definition port of The Simpsons Arcade Game on its PlayStation Network online service in February. The game will be initially made available exclusively to PlayStation Plus users at no charge. One day after the Sony announcement, Konami added that the game would also be ported to Microsoft's Xbox 360 console through Xbox Live Arcade. Konami elaborated further on the game's upgrades, which include online multiplayer, the ability to unlock the rare Japanese 4-player version of the game, and promotional content from the game's arcade launch.
