I've never seen that, but I'm surprised it's not Moe slinging the beers.

I guess whoever made the hack wanted the main characters to get the most screen time..

Looks like Moe to me...

IN THIS PIC
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

eBay's gonna start having a field day before long.  Some people have been squeezing translated SNES games past them lately  as well.

I haven't played with these yet.... but this supposedly has that Tapper/Simpsons hack in it. (I think)

Couldn't get it to work, either.

I guess that does look like Moe....

Hey, check out my thread on the problem I'm having with MAME and my monitor. When I start a game in MAME, the monitor goes all fuzzy. When I unplug the monitor and plug it back in, it works. The monitor is a Wells Gardner U3100 19 inch. It does this when the desktop comes up on Windows, too.
I'm with stupid.

IT WORKS!!!!

They didn't change all graphics though. The mugs say "Duff", but the backgrounds still say "Budweiser". Dancing girls and cheerleaders are also still original. A couple graphics are poorly drawn and sometimes "white" characters appear "black".

NO MORE!!
