Probably because it's bad, or the devs haven't tried to get it added.

Or they lost the licensing deal to use the Simpsons Brand. Thus making it impossible to sell more copies. (This has happened)

It's on PC, just not on Steam.

As I can see from checking, both Steam and this Simpsons game was founded around the same time. And most gaming companies probably thought that Steam was going to be a crash and burn service after it's release. You can still buy it on disk.
thats a good question m8

why is it so expensive lol 49$?
With age the number of new products go away and become considered as 'collectables'. Just the new ones are expensive and the used ones seem to be cheaper.

My second attempt at posting this as the first failed quite epically with quotes.

Do the publishers have a say in a game being added to steam? Because I;m fairly sure that Sierra Entertainment (Publishers of simpsons hit and run) are defunct.

I think so. Like say I developed a game for the Xbox, and enough fans wanted it, I guess I'd chat to Steam support or whoever and try and get it ported and useable on Steam.

As said by someone earlier though, they probably no longer even have the rights for The Simpsons, so that'd be a major hurdle.

Them probably no longer having the rights for te Simpsons is probably the main reason next to lack of demand.

I take back what I say about Sierra though, Just had a look and despite being defunct for years they now seem to be brought back.
