Continuity mistake: Game Over: When Lisa is using her Buddha hand powers to build the stairway to heaven, one of the buildings she uses is the Springfield Mall. In the shot of the mall being lifted, the area surrounding it has completely changed from when it was last seen in "Invasion of the Yokel Snatchers." A light blue building called Hailstone's has appeared which was a dark blue building when shown earlier, and the shrubbery is completely different.

Continuity mistake: Game Over: Back in Springfield, Homer sits down on the right-hand side of the couch and places his arm over the armrest. A couple seconds later, when Lisa says "We have to talk to God", the corner of the couch can be seen, but Homer cannot be seen sitting in it.

Continuity mistake: Grand Theft Scratchy: When the opening cutscene starts and Marge and Lisa are looking around the neighborhood, there are two cat prostitutes standing next to a house in the background. They are shown standing next to the front corner of the house in the initial shot, but when the shot cuts, they are standing closer to the front window.

Continuity mistake: Bargain Bin: When Bart is describing the Simpsons Game breakdown on the internet, Homer is holding a can of beer. The can is mostly grey, with a small red label. A couple seconds later, when Homer pushes Bart out of the way, the label is now much bigger, covering almost the entirety of the can.

Revealing mistake: Bargain Bin: When the Simpsons are in the living room, Homer is shown with his left arm lying on the armrest. There appears to have been an animation error, as Homer's arm is drawn as if it is placed on top of the armrest, but his arm is placed against the armrest. His arm appears to be resting and his fingers are curled as if he is supposed to be clutching the sides, but since his arm is against the side of the couch, the effect comes off as unnatural.

Continuity mistake: Bargain Bin: When the opening cutscene starts, the garage door has a handle on it. This handle disappears when Homer is doing his "looking busy" routine, then reappears when the family are running around the garden whilst being fired upon.

Revealing mistake: Bargain Bin: Homer takes out a pencil so that he can put on a ruse when "the boss" turns up. This pencil seems to pop-up in his hand out of nowhere. It could have been inside a pocket on his shirt, but the pencil is too big to have been inside the pocket and there should've been an outline of the pencil is there was. The way it's all animated makes it seem as if the pencil materialised in his hand out of thin air.

Deliberate mistake: Bargain Bin: When Homer mistakes the video game boss for his literal boss, he takes out a clipboard so that he can look busy. Aside from being part of the set up for a joke, there is no reason for Homer to have this clipboard on him, nor would there have been anywhere for him to have been hiding it (unless it was just tucked into the back of the trousers).

Continuity mistake: Bargain Bin: Whilst Bart says "This must be the level boss for this part of the game", Maggie can be seen being carried by Marge behind him. Maggie is shown with her hand over Marge's arm, but in the next shot, her hand is suddenly away from Marge's arm.

Deliberate mistake: Game Over: When God has finished explaining how the Simpsons Game manual ended up landing in front of Bart, Homer raises a baseball bat with wings on. While it makes for an amusing moment, this bat was never seen in Homer's hands at any other point in the cutscene, nor was there anywhere for him to put it.
