Been rewatching Simpsons and came across this interesting story thread. Bart & Homer going head-to-head in a Boxing game - which is like 8-bit Music, 16-bit graphics, but 3D movement (Playstation 1 era), etc. Strange mix, but again... shows more about perception of video games than realistic.

The arcade scene is also funny... this was just before the SF2 era, so interesting that one kid was hogging the boxing machine - undefeated. We'd actually see that type of thing IN ARCADES a few years from when this was produced.

Another really funny anachronism to me is they are using Atari 2600-like joysticks, but aren't holding them right. Not even a gamepad!? hahaha
