New Simpsons parody section includes Mr. Sparkle

EA introduced a new parody section of The Simpsons Game called "Big Super Happy Fun Fun Land," if we're transcribing our notes correctly. In a brief video presented to journalists, the game-and-culture send-up mocked Pokemon, Engrish, and other intersections of East-meets-West. While just a small piece of the game, the inclusion of Mr. Sparkle meant we had to post the otherwise light news.
Check out the updated gallery for more images. There's your answer, fish-bulb.

What the hell is Homer wearing, and how is Lisa wearing that hat, and oh G-d I love Misutaa Supaakoru.

I'm disrespectful to dirt!
Can you see I am serious!
Get out of my way, all of you!
This is no place for loafers.
Join me or die.
Can you do any less?
For lucky best wash, use Mr. Sparkle.

I hope to god this game does the TV show justice. Unlike the second half of the show itself. :\

If there's actual fun gameplay behind the brilliant concept, this may be the first EA game I've ever owned.

Thats just homers head, MR sparkle has square pupils!
Rubang B @ Sep 6th 2007 11:05AM
Those pupils look like squares to me. And he sure is sparkling a lot and being disrespectful to dirt.
BPM @ Sep 6th 2007 11:50AM
Incorrect. Mr. Sparkle's pupuls are round. They're bigger than a Simpsons character's pupils normally are (as if they were dilated). They're not whole circles, though, as part of them are whited out, to look like the light reflection on the eyes, which is common in the anime style.
