Evolution of Raiden's Electric Fly (1992-2019)

In this video, I bring to you the evolution of Raiden's most popular move, the Electric Fly, also known as Torpedo, since its first appearance in MK1 (1992) until MK11. I look at the elements of gameplay and storyline to bring to you the development of this influential character in the last few years.

Raiden's yells in his electric fly are something that should never be changed.

1st thing I noticed

[@kwagz3314]

That’s also how it was spelled in the movies

[@jasonmartinez5116]

Raiden was spelled as Rayden on home consoles of Mortal Kombat 1-2 and MK Trilogy to prevent copyright issues with an unrelated arcade shoot em up game called Raiden

MK2 Raiden Fly is the best ever. The fact that it has about four different variations of the actual scream compared to the others I don't see why they were never added. I think MK9 might have came close and then vs DC.

2:30 Raiden On The Rage

Raiden has been waiting in the car for almost 30 years.

[@michaeldebidart]

Fun fact about Raiden's "gibberish" that many people may not know...when Carlos Pesina layed down on the platform to record the visuals for Raiden's torpedo move for the first time, he accidentally layed on his testicles and let out a cry of pain and it gave them the idea to have Raiden say gibberish with the move. True story.

How do we know this is true?
