Anyone played a Simpsons arcade?
Amra:
The game used regular joysticks, they were all mounted the same way, not cocked at 45 degrees. People push te joystick in the direction the character needs to go, thus when the character needs t go up, they push us, which is diaganal on your cab. Change the orientation 45
Dexter:
Yep, if memory serves they were all mounted the same i.e. no 45 degree angles.

i actu ally have a simpsons 4-p cab, fully restored. the joysticks line up, the buttons do not. the joysticks are oriented not towards the moniter. they are oriented parralel with the p-1 and p-2 joystick, so up is the same direction for all 4 players

I'm curious...Simpsons has a great attract mode....and fun graphics...but..the game totally stinks, its like the most boring beat-em-up ever :)
Plus, does anyone ever really want to play as marge or lisa? :)
It shoulda been Homer, Barney, Moe and...FLANDERS! :D
With his patented "Bible Thumping" move!
BillyJack:
Yeah, and Moe could cut you up with broken beer bottles and his "stinger" boxing glove. Wow, they really could've done better with that game, but I think it was a time of "let's use the TMNT engine and just replace the sprites with the biggest thing"... or maybe it was an x-men engine? or an avenger's engine? anyway... those games weren't very fun but I still played the hell out of them. It could've been great though. With all the characters you can choose from in the newer SF type games, you could've chosen any out of like 200 characters from the Simpsons! (Do I exagerate?)
Bumblebee Man, The Sea Captain, Disco Stu, Handsome Pete, etc... and don't you think they could've done better than Mr. Burns as the bad guy? Think about Kodos and Kang or Reverend Lovejoy or someone truly evil... Well, maybe Mr. Burns but jesus... a diamond in Maggie's mouth, WTF!?
Sorry,
