MK2 for Gamecube

[Chuck Fiasco]

I used to have Midway Arcade Classics 2 about 8 years ago for Gamecube. I remember it being tough against the computer. I just recently bought it again today for my Wii. I only got it to "warm up" for MK9. With all the games that come on there its a steal for $5.

Anyways, after playing it for about 2 hours today I figured out a few things. The GC controller for MK SUCKS! I'm old school and cut my teeth in the arcades grinding it out on MK through MK3. So playing with this type of controller for me is a pain in the ass.

Projectiles are useless. After the 3rd or 4th guy on the ladder they block or dodge EVERY projectile you throw.

I even put it on the easiest setting for the game & I couldnt even get past the 7th character. I feel like a complete retard.

Am I retarded or is this port of the game insanely harder than it should be?

Just wondering, which version of MK2 did you play growing up as a kid?

I know the Genesis port was absolutely nerfed while the DOS port was super hard just like the Arcade version.

Mostly arcade. I did have the Genesis version but the arcade was king back then.

Classics and PC Version and Original Xbox version are the best versions of the game actually, I recommend using a classic controller or arcade stick modded. (For a home port they seem to be the best versions)
