Simpsons Arcade Game Coming to the App Store [iPhone and iPod touch to Get Simpson Arcade Game]

The Simpson Arcade game is by far one of my all time favorite arcade games, and I have played a few in my time. And this particular arcade game is coming soon to an iPhone or iPod touch near you. That’s what I call good news, especially at this time of the year.

EA Mobile is apparently working hard on the iPhone version of The Simpson Arcade. EA Mobile says that the game is a “throwback to the actual arcade game from the early 90s.” You’ll get to play as Homer, one of the most recognizable characters of the Simpsons series, and you’ll be racing down the streets of Springfield in order to get a donut. On the way you’ll have to throw down with lots of evil people that want to stand between you and your precious donut. I’m pretty convinced that those evil characters will also have a secret agenda so kick their ass with no remorse.

My favorite character is Bart Simpson and I’m already sorry I can’t pick him out. Homer can punch, kick, belly-flop and butt-slam his evil enemies but I’d trade everything off for a mean Bart Simpson with a skateboard in his hands.

Although Homer seems really strong, you’ll have to closely monitor his health bar. You’ll certainly hate seeing him die just as he gets closer to his objectives. Luckily for us, Homer can earn various power-ups on the way which will bring to life other members of the family to help him deal with the enemies. On top of fighting the bad guys all the way to the final objective, you will also be playing various mini-games including the popular “Slap Homer” game.

Personally I can’t wait to get my hands on the game. I’m already a big fan of the show and I wouldn’t mind virtually slapping some Springfield dudes whenever I get the chance. EA Mobile hasn’t announced actual availability dates for The Simpsons Arcade game but we’re expecting it to arrive in the near future.
