The Three Stooges is a minigame collection starring the most well-known lineup of the Stooges: Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard. Of course, the boys don't often get into shenanigans without a good reason, and in this case it's to get at least $5,000 in 30 days to save Ma's Orphanage from being foreclosed on by the crooked banker I. Fleecem, with better endings for earning $10,000 and $20,000.

The NES version was among the first ports of the Amiga original and went on to be ported to numerous other platforms. It's also notable for including several digitized Stooge voice clips, as well as a cute startup sequence.

Voice Samples

Acactussayswhat?
Please elaborate.
Having more detail is always a good thing.
Specifically: Whose voices are these and what episodes are each taken from?

Change address 0010's value to 01 to play all the voice samples on the intro screen, some of which are unused.

Music

The title theme (a rendition of the Stooges' 1935-38 theme tune, itself based on "Listen to the Mockingbird") lasts 20 seconds, but only the first 8 are heard in-game before transitioning to the story.

Same with this one. Lasts 17 seconds, but only the first 4 are used.
