Having a problem with a Mobile Game.

Autistic British Jackass · 03-30-2021, 07:09 PM

So, i have this leaflet of a Simpsons Mobile Game entitled: "Minutes to Meltdown" on my copy of the Xbox 360 version of The Simpsons Game.

and for some reason, the message failed for no damn reason, whatsoever.

heres the problem i got:

and heres the leaflet

and i founded out that the game was made with Java. There is ways to use
Java on a iPhone device, but i do not have Java on my iphone.

but i need to play this game!

heres some gameplay of it:

(and hell, the music sounds MIDI-like)

its very likely that the service has just been cut off with the transition to iphones and app stores, that does seem like a very cool and advanced mobile game for that era though

Oh, i see the possible problem Nixon.

and heck. Let me tell you! on the leaflet, theres a logo for Orange.

which sadly died in the UK in 2010/2015/2019 (wow, like what the hell)

Heck, theres a Orange UK store right now.

ah yes, if orange is gone then i can imagine that number will forever be defunct. i remember back in them days though you could download files of mobile games and there was a way of putting them on certain phones via memory card, maybe look into that (obviously you wouldn’t be able to do that with an iPhone, you should drop $20 on a burner phone that probably runs on java

I think Nickson is correct, the game is 14 years old. It's probably just not supported anymore.

Aw man, i want play this game.

but your right, the game is just 14 years old and its just... not common to play
Java games on iPhones.

Do you have a favorite Simpsons episode, Patryk?

Autistic British Jackass · 03-30-2021, 08:09 PM

Yes, 30 Minutes over Tokyo.

This epiosde was banned in Japan due to a scene where Homer throws
the emporer of Japan to box full of Sumo Thongs.

Does the word "Sumo" remind you of anything?

That's a good episode. My favorite episode is "Summer of 4 ft. 2", when the family goes to stay at Flander's beach house and Lisa reinvents herself as a cool kid.
