This dream has a sad ending
I think it's funny we're getting sub-zero considering how much people loved dealing with him in mkx.

Very, very wise words. In fact, I hope everyone that feels disappointed by guest characters, reads these words, takes them to heart and put them into practice.
You know, it's funny. I'm buying the Ultimate Edition as well, but it's for a completely different reason. I want to play IJ2 seriously, and learn skills that I can apply to other fighting games. Buying the DLC is a requirement, because I have to lab and learn how to fight against (and possibly play) those characters. They could add Spawn or Beast Boy, or Bucky O'Hare... it wouldn't matter.
Yeah maybe you're right. Never looked at it like this. I guess I view it form the aspect of... for every MK fighter there's one less D.C. Fighter.
I feel the same way omg. I think it's a vocal minority. If you just look at sales, that proves it.
Are you referring to Scorpion in Injustice 1? Keep in mind he competed again Lobo and Batgirl.
Basically A highly requested dlc character and one of DCS most popular females of all time.
It's not like there's a hard and fast limit to how many characters can be in a fighting game, but obviously an infinite number of characters can't be added to one. Thats why it sucks when guest characters are put in over characters such as Doomsday, MM, Beast Boy, Sinestro. Those are the characters that actually belong in game, they have ties to most every other character, both in-game and because of the rest of DC universe itself. Guest characters don't, and they often feel shoved in for the sales (which they usually are), which is just shitty when you know a character who actually belongs gets left out because of that.
Lobo is a super obscure character in DC lore and I think you're confusing Batgirl for Wonder Woman, Supergirl or Catwoman.
Being obscure doesn't mean he wasn't highly requested (which he was) and people were happy to have him. As for the Babs thing ummmm, so? There have been plenty of characters that absolutely no one knows who have carried titles for long time. Still doesn't change the fact that people know and love Barbara Gordon. Cass better hold on tight to that series because it's not like DC cared to do include her in anything outside of the comics or have be a part of anything that doesn't Involve Bruce.Lobo is a super obscure character in DC lore and I think you're confusing Batgirl for Wonder Woman, Supergirl or Catwoman.
Fun Fact: Batgirl didn't get a solo comic until the early 2000's and even then the one who got it was Casssandra Cain(not Babara) and she still holds the record for longest running Batgirl series
Still obscure so what's your point?
That he obviously wasn't obscure enough for people to not ask for him in the game so acting like the fact that Scorpion outsold him is a bit more significan't than people like to delude themselves into thinking.
Where would one find these?
A link please?
For playstation here's a good place to start-
That's the wrong month, this link shows the numbers for May of 2013, Scorpion was released for IJ1 on the next month which was June.

I think it's ok for nrs to put mk characters in a DC game. They should've put a dc character in mkx just to keep fan boys kinda of content.
As you can see in that link, there is no Scorpion, but there is no other character either. When we say the best-selling character, we mean in comparison to the other individual characters, and there are no characters at all listed in the June list. Now for the July list, yes, Martian Manhunter makes the cut and not Scorpion, but Scorpion could've still get more sales as a stand alone character in that month that it was overall the best seller of all. Also, since this list takes into account all add-ons, this could possibly mean that Scorpion was the best-seller for characters, but overall the the other non-character-specific add-ons still sold more on that month, while in July, Martian Manhunter made the cut as the other add-ons got less sales in that month in comparison to previous months.
Yeah one of the things that made Soul Calibur 2 so successful was the guest characters.
That's quite a lot of bsing to somehow explain how Scorpion managed to not make it as the best selling individual character when Martian Manhunter outsold him and he never made the top 10 add-ons.
It's logical to assume that DC purists are a minority when compared to the larger fanbase of the MK series. Hence the reason why MK characters keep showing up in a DC fighting game. If Scorpion hadn't of sold well in Ij1 we would not be seeing any more MK characters as DLC. It's clear there is a limit with the recent negative vibe going on with a possible Raiden appearance. Something tells me NRS will not go that way if they were planning to.
