…might as well have been trying to make a good game with stone knives and bear skins!

wft? Hey man, MK had a lot of faults, but back in the early nineties there weren’t a handfull of games that were that well put-together. You’re dealing with primitive technology here.

You didn’t miss much. The original MK, although having scanned photos for graphics, didn’t have ENOUGH photos in there to provide fluid animation. A lot of the game was based on cheap-shot moves, so a good player could prevent the other player from getting ANY moves off (especially if the other player didn’t have a teleport move).

tl;dr : choppier than a Japanese short-order cook, too easy to spam Scorpion spears.

In my country, we didn’t had arcades. When they finally opened one, the church burned it down, because we thought that devils are inside the machines.

Last arcade game I truly cared about. So many quarters wasted.
