Game Information
|
Super Slugfest is a boxing video game for both home console and arcade.
History
Homer and Bart both played Super Slugfest at home with Bart beating Homer every time, but Homer insists on playing, determined to win. After many defeats, Homer eventually goes to Noiseland Video Arcade to play the game for practice. While there he gets training from Howard — Howard makes him bark for it and calls him Fido, as he is the best at it. When he rematches Bart, he is beating him until Marge pulls the plug on the game and Bart "retires" from video game boxing undefeated.
Behind the Laughter
The game is a parody of Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (albeit bloodier) which was created by Nintendo for their NES console. The two fighters also loosely resemble Bart and Homer, one of the fighters is bald and the other had spiky hair. The referee is also similar in appearance to the human characters in Matt Groening's Life in Hell comics.
