The coloration is impressive. MK1 on SNES is such a good looking and sounding port, it's a shame that the gameplay has a big input delay... Luckily Sculptured made a masterpiece with MK2!

I only played arcade and snes versions. The snes port was really stiff. The genesis port was such trash.

@@thepolacek Yeah, the SNES feels really laggy in the controls. The Genesis version plays fine but it's kinda hard on the eyes and ears. The Sega CD version is by far the best console port.

[@mkryona4u-bl8ib]

​@@thepolacek "The genesis port was such trash" 😂 WTF are you talking about? Is that how come the Sega Genesis version out sold the SNES cartridge? The Genesis port had the blood (which everyone wanted), an amazing original soundtrack, great responsive gameplay, the same exact presentation as the arcade. Sure, the SNES' graphics were superior, but what good are the graphics when the gameplay is garbage? It was so sticky, unresponsive and glitchy, that it was practically unplayable. So, you're wrong. The SNES port was TRASH.

[@Nicksolo85]

The Arcade version plays much better & has the higher level of violence. The Super Nintendo version has better (also scarier) sounding music in my opinion. Both look pretty good & the sound effects are pretty good in both in my opinion. Neither needed an additional controller for better gameplay, meaning you didn't have to buy a different controller & could just use the default 1, but I highly recommend buying a turbo controller for your Super Nintendo & switch the A & B turbo switches on during Test Your Might if you wanna survive it. 1 thing that kind of irritates me about the Arcade version is how it sometimes skips over Goro's Lair + Reptile's health bar saying Scorpion instead of Reptile is a little weird. The Super Nintendo version was the only version that did that right while the other 3 versions just say Scorpion. I've done the Arcade, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis & Sega CD versions of this game.

[@GodKitty677]

THe music on the SNES is a cut down version of the arcade. Sega CD is arcade and the mega drive is nothing like the arcade unless you get a hacked version that play redbook audio via the mega cd.

[@VOAN]

FUN FACT: This is the only Super NES port of Mortal Kombat that actually look arcade accurate. They even got the names correctly imprinted in the health bar too, something the later Super NES ports didn't do. Also at the end of the match notice that there's still one character Shang Tsung didn't released from his body even though he could morph into him just like the others. That character is the only character that didn't return for Mortal Kombat II.

[@juanaaronvilapichler2893]

And incredible sprites-animation like the arcade version. Its seems that they transferred all the complete sprites to the SNES version. The animation doesnt look choppy or very harsh like the Genesis conversion.

[@JohnCharb87]

Well that was an interesting bug. SNES version you fought Chrome Goro during round 1 19:18. The Snes looks pretty good in comparison. It still retained some of background layer scrolling found in the Arcade. Also kind of like the faster scrolling clouds in the SNES version.

SNES put together a really solid and competent 16-bit port with good color, responsive controls, and good sound for the most part. It's just a shame that it gets overlooked because Nintendo thoroughly misunderstood that the edginess and violence was one of the central elements of its appeal. They'd more than make up for it with an awesome MK2 port on SNES that, apart from the Sega 32X, was just about "best in class" for its console generation.

[@aaryaputra108]

Never understood why they spell Raiden as Rayden in the SNES version, but it's correctly spelt as Raiden in the Sega version. And what did they do to Goro 😱

[@lchambers56]

I'm shocked at how close this port is to the arcade. Seriously. This should've been a triumph for Nintendo, but between the censored content and the shoddy controls, it fell flat. What a tragedy.

[@brandogg]

Graphics and sound-wise the SNES port is absolutely incredible. It's easily the most accurate 16-bit port of any MK game in those 2 departments. Yes, Sega CD had better audio quality, but EVERY stage plays the wrong music.

[@demonology2629]

SNES version looks better to me, because the graphics are a little bit more smaller, and you can see a lot more on the screen!🎮 🙏🏼☯️🐲📺

1) as perfect as SNES was in graphics, it was still missing some details.. also, no one has ever noticed that SNES uses Palace Gates music for Goro's Lair when not fighting Goro; 2) You don't get a free hit on Goro as he comes done in SNES + SNES exclusively added the word FIGHT! when Goro comes down; 3) Rayden's finishing move glitch turns Goro into T-1000 in SNES; 4) SNES Shang Tsung explosion added rainbow colors; 5) SNES when fighting Shang Tsung, it uses Palace Gates music instead of Shang Tsung's Palace; 6) SNES Johnny Cage can't split punch Goro; 7) SNES missing Cast of Characters callout

[@JudgmentStorm]

SNES MK1 could have been so much more. Control is broken. Quarter circle moves that are very easily done on arcade MK become too difficult. Nintendo should have laid off the censorship with this being Mortal Kombat. At least the stages look decent. Sculptured (and Nintendo) made up for their earlier mistakes with the MK2 port.

[@helderestrela6958]

A versao do snes é injogavel parece uma versão bugada com a falta de resposta dos comandos e um hit detection desastroso sem falar na censura que é o menos . O que vale é o departamento sonoro e gráfico que ficou muito bom . Se alguém conseguir um patch esta seria a melhor versão caseira

(when you really think about it, MOST of the fatalities here are actually in tact with the exception of Cage and I'd argue Sub-Zero's fatality in this version is pretty kick-ass) it's the GAMEPLAY that's screwed. Every single movement is just so lagged it's pretty much unplayable. Graphically? It's GREAT. The sound? Well... it sounds like it's being suffocated beneath a pillow but it's largely there.
