I don't want the Genesis or SNES versions of MK.

I want the Arcade versions! (looks good as the SNES MK, with the Blood of The Genesis MK)

For you, the day LordJumpMad graced your threads, was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday.

The SNES version is ugly, and I want to turn off the blood.

@ Starfox
Turn off The Blood? In Mortal Kombat? That's like wanting to turn off the mushrooms in Mario. What's a matter too grossed out?
I thought the ugly one was the Genesis version. The best looking is obviously the Arcade version. If we get any MK on VC I'd want that.

If they release the SNES version, I'll avoid it like the plague. I had it for a few days, and it sucked. It had come with a used SNES I bought (along with many other games). I ended up selling it, along with several other games that came with the system.

The Genesis version is probably better.

Oh man it was good, mostly because it's the only option I had to have MK in my home. With no Genesis everyone owning a SNES had to settle for sweat instead of blood.

Send me the best you've got. Send me your strongest machines. The fight my brother fought, here, now, will end with me.

But now we don't have to settle, so long as they use their brains and give their fans the best version of the game instead of the worst.

Well with the new 3D HD remake compilation for the PS3 and the new MK coming out next year, I'm sure their focuses are shifted elsewhere than giving us an MK (which I feel is a too violent game to make it to the virtual console).

If Samurai Shodown (which featured bloody deaths but not fatalities) can come to the VC then so can Mortal Kombat. The SNES version at the very least.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Correct me if im wrong here, but i believe eternal champions, which we have on the vc, had fatalities. I played that one but not extensively. Actually that may only be the sega cd version. Oh well, yes MK should be in our library. Big title. But i know on the 360 it was taken mysteriously off the arcade.

Personally, I'd like it the best if they released all three versions (SNES, Genesis, and Arcade), but I understand that that is improbable. If I had to choose one, it'd be Arcade.

That's because Midway went bankrupt. With no publisher to sell the product, boom goes the product.

They sold off a lot of their IPs though, which is how we've seen a new Hydro Thunder and NBA Jam. There is that new MK game coming but I don't know what the deal is with the rights to that IP. Maybe whoever is in charge will get around to re-releasing the games on digital download.

I'd rather have More Dull Kombat anyway.

I think Warner Bros got the MK IP, I know they got a bunch of Midways IPs when Midway went bankrupt. It would make sense since WB did help on MK vs DC.
