The Simpsons Arcade Game I used to play a lot at a local Chuck E. Cheese growing up. I also had the now delisted Xbox 360 port. Which I deeply enjoyed playing at the time. This was during the 90s when Konami was on a roll with licensed games. This was the original Simpsons game. Somehow it still holds up amazingly well. Also among the three best Simpsons games ever made. The soundtrack as well as the sound effects truly amazing. There's a few mini games that's a bit repetitive to a degree. You can play as most of the Simpsons family. There's a good variety within the stages. I do think a newer port of this Simpsons game would sell very well. There's a lot of people that never played the original Arcade classic. This is up there with their Arcade TMNT games respectively.

I remember playing this on DOS. Before I could even play, a Password needed to be inputted. I didn’t know the Password so I would try numerous times until I got the right one. Great Memories.

Played it on the XBox 360-but it was never given backwards compatibility. May be a tough license to get as The Simpson's are now Disney IP. Good luck GoG and I hope you can bring this great game here.

Asura's Wrath
Asura's WrathThe game follows the title character, the demigod Asura as he seeks revenge on the pantheon of other demigods who betrayed him. The story is presented in the style and format of an episodic series of cinematic shorts, including opening and closing credits, with the gameplay being integrated into the cinematic where players switch between third-person combat and interactive sequences with player input in the form of quick-time event button prompts. Because of its unique style, the game has been described in the media as an "interactive anime". According to the game's producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya, Asura's Wrath takes elements from Hinduism and Buddhism and blends them with science fiction, with the main character based on the ever combative and superiority-seeking beings of the same name that are part of the Hindu and Buddhist cosmology.
