The Simpsons is a 1991 beat 'em up video game developed and published by Konami. It was the second video game based on the animated television series The Simpsons to be released in North America. The game allows up to four players to control members of the Simpson family as they fight various enemies to rescue Maggie. The game features archival recordings from the show's first season mixed with brand new recordings by its voice actors, with Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright and Yeardley Smith reprising their respective roles as the Simpsons family.

The game was a commercial success in the United States, where it was one of the top three best-selling arcade games of 1991. It was ported to the Commodore 64 and MS-DOS soon after its launch in the arcades, and was released as The Simpsons Arcade Game on those platforms. It was also released under that title on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 and PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3 in February 2012; however, for unknown reasons, it was removed from both services on December 20, 2013. In 2021, under license from 20th Century Games, Arcade1Up released a 30th anniversary home arcade cabinet that features this game and The Simpsons Bowling.
