I tried to throw a yo-yo away. It was impossible.
I mean ya, but that's not a mainline game. Hell, calling that a game is a stretch

1.) Plenty of people like Jacqui and Frost. Just because YOU don't find them appealing doesn't mean that no one else does.
2.) Guest characters sell. And they always will. NRS and WB are in the business of making money, and spots that could have ultimately gone to MK characters will be given to guests. That's just how it is.
3.) You are aware that MK hit the market in '92 right? The folks at NRS/WB aren't stupid. Their base still has 80's and 90's kids. Nostalgia sells. Hence the inclusion of Robocop, Terminator, and Spawn. The face and voice of Cary Tagawa, and soon the voices of Linden Ashby, Bridgette Wilson, and Christopher Lambert from the '95 movie. Why shouldn't NRS do something for the original fans/players of MK?
Leaving out the whole Internet, social media and prevalence of anonymous online opinions part of the argument, eh? It doesn't matter how successful it was... a character skipping a game in its THIRD installment less than three years after the character's conception is not comparable to one being excluded 25 years and 18 or so games later. Why should I even have to explain that? LOL
I'm not leaving anything out, I'm correcting you since you called the franchise "barely established" in 1995. It was quite established at that time.
"Established" and "successful" aren't the same thing.
You're coming off very defensive and cringy, tbh.
But it was, and still is, successful.
I can assure you I didn't ask, but thanks for your really insightful input and contribution.
MK was the biggest thing on the planet in 1995
established
yes its easy to establish something in 3 years
Yes, because making insane amounts of money of arcades and home ports, and doing well enough to have a feature film, television show, comic series, and a live action show, not to mention having the influence on sales to be a strong part of why Nintendo changed their no-violence stance clearly means they weren't very successful at all
.
Right! For example, Patrick Mahomes is both established and successful after almost 3 years of being a starter.
Has to be voluntary illiteracy at this point. I literally said it was barely ESTABLISHED and reaffirmed that there's a distinct difference between establishment and success (agreeing that MK is successful)...?Yes, because making insane amounts of money of arcades and home ports, and doing well enough to have a feature film, television show, comic series, and a live action show, not to mention having the influence on sales to be a strong part of why Nintendo changed their no-violence stance clearly means they weren't very successful at all
Sure, I read the wrong word, though successful and established are interchangable when it comes to Mortal Kombat in 1995.
Sure, I get what you're saying. Which doesn't change that fact that the franchise was both established and successful in 1995. This is fact, not opinion.
Selective memory.
oh i can believe the few that were out there at the time were mad
And you said the franchise was barely established. Which is false. Which is what I've been addressing with you this entire time. That's the only thing I've been addressing with you this entire time.
I challenged and refuted the point I was focusing on. Succesfully might I add.
Toodles!
I was very disappointed.
