Continuity mistake: Game Over: When Marge says all they can do is pray that God saves us, Lisa (who is standing in front of Marge, but turned away), turns her body around 90°, and then turns her head to the right 90° so she is looking at Marge. When the shot cuts to Lisa, she is facing Marge directly.

Character mistake: Game Over: After returning from the Game Engine and Bart points out they are still under attack, Marge says "I guess all that's left to do is pray that God saves us." When she says this, Lisa can be seen smiling, but the town is still under alien invasion so there should be no reason to do so. She doesn't come up with the idea to use her Buddha Hand powers to talk to God until right after Marge says the line, so it couldn't have had anything to do with that.

Other mistake: Game Over: Once everyone returns from the Game Engine, Homer sits down on the couch. The house then rumbles, prompting Bart to walk over to the window and say "Homer, we're still under attack." When Bart says this, he looks over to the left side of the living room. But the window is in the centre of the room and the couch directly faces the window, so there is no way Bart could've been looking at the couch to say the line to Homer.

Revealing mistake: Mob Rules: When Lisa is asking Marge if she finds it hypocritical that she is opposed violence in games, yet she used violence to get her way, the body movements used for the mob appear to be repeated and reused throughout the shot.

Revealing mistake: Invasion of the Yokel Snatchers: An alien takes the coupons that Cletus is holding. After looking at them, the alien throws each of the coupons to the ground, one by one. The same animation is reused for each of the coupons falling, as shown by the fact that all of them appear to fall to the ground in the exact same fashion.

Homer Simpson: Not dreaming. Not dreaming. Not dreaming. Huh, damn it, I was dreaming. Why is life so unfair. All I want is to eat everything in sight and turn into a giant ball! Is that too much to ask? Damn you, reality.

More quotes from The Simpsons Game

Trivia: This game offers 16 levels with different 2-character groupings. There are seven levels with Homer and Bart (eight if you count Game Over for the Wii and PSP versions), three with Bart and Lisa, two with Marge and Lisa, one with Homer and Lisa and one with Homer and Marge. However, there are no levels in the game that feature a 2-character grouping between Marge and Bart. The closest the game ever gets to this is the 4-character grouping Game Over (but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions).
