Footage sourced from professional grade 90's video masters does indeed look pretty good. Unfortunately, a lot of analog "video" footage now floating around is taken from at best a second gen copy/transfer (which remains the case with many of the "official" music video uploads of older videos). At worst, it's taken from a home VHS capture of an over the air broadcast or cable/satellite broadcast. The newest generations must think that "everything" filmed with analog video cameras looked like crap so they are caught off-guard to see what high quality first gen video footage looked like in the 90's.

Back when people literally didn't understand what a video-game was. They understood pinball, but just couldn't wrap their head around using buttons to make things happen on the screen. Also the fact that Ed Boon said Mortal Kombat was for kids on the record several times was actually used against him and the industry during the vidoegame scare of the mid-90s (a few years later), and is a direct reason why the ESRB ended up being formed as a knee-jerk reaction to keep videogames from being controlled by the government. Ed Boon was essentially the reason it happened, because John Carmack (who was also a focus of theirs) atleast was wise enough to not say DOOM was for kids. Ed made it clear that their product was aimed at kids, and that did not sit well with Lieberman or congress. I remember those days well enough.
@xMaGuSx88814 сағат бұрын
Video games had existed for almost 2 decades at this point though. By 1992 when MK came out, there were already 30 million NES systems sold in the US alone. Video games were very popular at this time. This interviewer was just an insufferable moron. Also, it was MK, Lethal Enforcers, and Night Trap that were the main games involved in the creation of the ESRB and what was brought up in the hearings. Doom came out in 1993, after the first ESRB hearing was even had. So it wasn't even on the radar yet. Doom didn't become a big deal or in the spotlight until the columbine massacre because the killers played it and made it part of their plan. After that the war on Doom started. Ed Boon and what he said, also had nothing to do with it happening. Joe Lieberman's chief of staff had his son ask for Mortal Kombat on a console, when he saw how violent the game was, he freaked out and brought it to Lieberman to see if anything could be done as it was deemed completely inappropriate for kids. Lethal enforcers was the next big one because of the gun it came with. Whether Ed or Midway marketed to kids was irrelevant. The point was that with current laws, there was nothing stopping kids from going into a store and buying something that may have had questionable content. That's why the ESRB was made. It's not to censor a game but to let buyers know what the game consists of, so they can make appropriate decisions for their kids. Lots of parents didn't care and bought their kids M rated games anyway. So it had nothing to do with Ed Boon making statements about kids. It was going to happen one way or another.

The white board @8:44, says Monday, August 26. According to my phone's calendar, that was in 1991 which baffles me. Unless this was filmed sometime in 1992 or 1993, and no one erased the board at that time. The next Monday, August 26th was in 1996. I know it wouldn't have been that late.

Boon always had that "random goon in a 70s Mafia movie" look. The hair. The eyebrows. Definitely the eyebrows. Great to see though! I remember where I was when I first played Mortal Kombat. We had just opened up our second comic and card shop on the nearby all up in Silver City Galleria. Taunton. So whenever I wasn't "helping"(they'd just gimme stuff to do to keep me outta their hair) out I'd pop up to the second floor. I think. I know it wasn't the lowest level. I went up once and their was a line nearly out the arcade. Definitely past the Capcom Knights of the Round table I used to play a lot (also Death Adders revenge). Good times. Miss arcades. Was able to make it to Galloping Ghost to breathe in a healthy dose of nostalgia. Endoldmanramble

We NEED a proper remake!! Break out the old tapes and redo it as the original but in UHD and make the whole thing 3D with combos!!

I wonder if they still have the original HD footage to make new sprites.

Arcade times... sweet 90s... bring back the Arcades!

Wondering what the timing is on this shoot. They obviously already have the game out in at least some arcades. Is this like the gaming version of pick up shots for a later revision?

It seems like something done specifically for a news report or TV special, definitely not an actual "making of" the game but still really cool to see Dan, Richard, Ho and Noob Saibot themselves in-costume.

Based on that it makes me think that this is later than 1991. Maybe late 92 or 93.

@@PhantomOSX it very well could be. It would have to be before the lawsuit for sure since Dan and Ho are there, and I'd assume it's pre MK2 or else I'd imagine that would be the game being promoted. The fatality seems to shock the interviewer too so I'd reckon its still pretty early on

@@PhantomOSX I thought the same but at one point they point to something that says "Monday August 26". I googled a 1991 calendar and 8/26 was a Monday that year. It's weird too cuz MK1 didn't come out til October 1992 if what Google has is correct so this would be the game being in a finished-looking playable build a full year before then.

@@blakfloyd when I saw the date I had the same idea as you but I was too lazy at the time to do it. LOL it makes sense that they would still be working on it in 1991 but it was certainly surprising to see them playing a finish build it appeared. It's very strange, they must have been sitting on it and doing testing. The people at the end playing games are probably the testers they hired to test the game and they were filming reworks for a revision I assume. Very interesting piece of film just based off of its ambiguity alone.
