My favorite version is the Jakks Pacific Plug And Play version. It lacks background animation and the sound is midi, but they still sound good. The character movement s and fatalities are all Arcade perfect which makes it worthwhile to find. It is also Rated M.

The 2004 Plug-and-play MK is not the Amiga version. It's an original port, believe it or not. Apparently Jakks Pacific got a really good deal on a bulk order of an obscure 16-bit CPU from a company called SunPlus, which allowed them to keep the price of the units to a reasonable cost. So all their plug-and-play games from that era use it, meaning all the games are actually new ports, not ROMs of previous ports, unlike this device.
Hey John, the MK hand held game runs on the sega gensis rom.....you have 2 ways to access the cheat menu to utilze the fatality code......#1...during the code of honor screen, press low punch, low block, low punch, low kick, low punch, low block, low block(also known as the ABACABB Code) and press down , up , left. left, low punch, right, down (also known as the dullard code) at character scrolling screen. you'll get an extra menu choice and will open up the cheat code......good luck
I just found this last weekend at a Walmart in my girlfriends neck of the woods and absolutely had to buy it because MK is in my blood! I turn into a 10 year old kid whenever I find MK stuff like this out in the wild. I wanted to see what others had to say about it. Yeah, it sucks that the fatalities and blood/gore are missing. And yes, the sound is also a little choppy and in mono. But you know what? I still freaking love LOVE this thing! I think it's a steal for $20 bucks, especially if you're an MK fan. It has the nice little LCD screen, the controls handle stupidly well for what it is. Il ove the art work. I's just a very very cool collectible for an MK fan with a highly playable and just as addicting version of MK! A portable arcade version which I have never seen before in my life. I think it's completely understandable that the game is censored (I see others saying it's the genesis port, I had it on there and don't remember it being censored like this but I believe it). Despite it being 30~ years old now, it's still an M-rated game, and the one that was basically responsible for the ratings association to be created! It would be cool if there was an adult M-rated version available. I've a software dev by day and I'm tempted to take the thing apart and see what's running it. Probably a proprietary board that you can't do anything with. It'd be cool to hack it and put the uncensored game on it. Or even put one of the other ROMs for MKII on it or something. Maybe replace the board with a rasberry pi....
I'm really glad you're enjoying it, Edward. It's far from "bad," but with the MK franchise being so well-known for the over-the-top gore, omitting it entirely (even overriding the blood codes) really dilutes the nostalgic experience. Plus, that '90s "gore" is pretty tame by today's standards, so leaving it in wouldn't have all that scandalous, would it?
@@stevenlittle4194 Yes, this little gadget has that original Sega ROM that has the blood codes completely disabled. So anything that was deemed "not too brutal for kids" like Scorpion's fire fatality is there, but the ones that were behind the blood code (like spine-ripping or dismemberment) are not available.
The version you're playing on it is the Sega Genesis version, there's a code you have to punch in to unlock the blood and to get the uncensored fatalities, but it does NOT work on the mini arcade game. Otherwise I love it, it's my favorite mini arcade out of the whole set, I've been a Mortal Kombat fan since I was 9 years old.
I’m a big mortal Kombat fan, and I just got mk11. But I still wanted to have the original port, and I found out arcade classics also have this! Thanks Jon!
If it has a Genesis on a chip, it should be possible to dissemble it and run different games. Not a single video on youtube about anyone hacking this though.
I've spent the last week trying to find videos about people trying to hack these consoles, and no luck. The closest I came was a guy in imgur who was able to put a Zero Pi, reusing the keys, but using another screen. I guess the main issue is the logic board is a mystery, and there is no way to hook up the small screen to a Pi, since there is no controller board for it available.
This is the exact port of the Sega Genesis version. For that version, when the screen shows the info on the “code” at the beginning, you have to input “A,B,A,C,A,B,B” to turn on the blood and fatalities. The “A” button corresponds to “Low Punch”, “B” to “Low Kick”, and “C” to “High Kick” on the Genesis controller. I wonder if you tap “Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Punch, High Kick, Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Kick” on your Arcade Klassics Mortal Kombat during the “Code” screen at the beginning, will it activate the blood and fatalities?
Hey, Sean. A quick scan of the comments section and you'll see that we've all verified that neither ABACABB nor DULLARD code works on this little gadget. The Genesis ROM's blood & more gruesome fatalities have been nerfed here.
@@GenXGrownUp Oh, right on. I didn't see that in the comments. That's too bad, as I remember the Genesis non-blood fatalities were quite lame. The Super Nintendo version of Mortal Kombat had much more creative fatalities. I much preferred the Genesis version of the game versus the Super Nintendo, but only if the blood was turned on for the Genesis.
This is an odd one. The game looks like the SNES version did (near arcade quality) and yet has the Genesis "fatalities". These being the fatalities that were shown if the "blood code" was not entered.
Thanks to lots of viewers & commenters we're arrived at the understanding that this is running the Genesis ROM which has had its blood code nerfed. Neither ABACABB nor DULLARD activate the more vicious fatalities.
The fatalities aren't there because it's the genisis port so you have to put in a,b,a,c,a,b,b on the warrior code screen for the original fatalities and blood.
It most definitely the Genesis MK1 version. The ‘code’ screen is where you enter the blood code, which was A B A C A B B and enabled the fatalities, if my memory serves me correctly. I’m guessing on this thing that code would be low punch, lower block, low punch, low kick, low punch, lower block, lower block based on the alternate genesis 6 button controller
I had read that somewhere. Being an old guy I never played it on Genesis, only the arcade. Too bad the code wasn't available for me to use for the review!
Indeed I have, LcTVirus. If you have a moment, browse through the other comments where we've talked at length about all of the combinations tried to enable Blood Mode to no avail.
I have a quick question. As I'm new to your channel. And I have watched a few of your reviews today. Does that brand as well as the all fun classics mini arcades Have a way to keep them in demo or attract ...meaning they won't cut off After a set. Of time like the my arcade micros... Thanks in great content by the way subbed
Hey, thanks for watching. Since they're all battery operated, the seem to, by default, turn themselves off after a period of inactivity. I get that they make awesome display pieces and leaving them on is something a lot of collectors desire, but short of modifying the internals, it's not just a setting.
@GenXGrownUp make perfect sense thanks for the quick response awesome channel btw it's becoming something i can watch as I dose off and I mean that in a very positive way almost dare I say it ! therapeutic to me keep up the work.🤙🏿
@@theafchefstable8284 Fine by me! Sleep-watching counts the same, and you're less likely to click away if I've lulled you to sleep! Heck, next time your drowsy, spin up a whole playlist! 😜
I don't know a thing about Mortal Kombat, but my sons received this hand held version from someone for Christmas this year and want to know how to throw things. Can you help with that? We've searched all over the internet and can't find the answer. Thanks for any help you can give.
@@jasongooden917 Thanks. The paper got thrown away somehow in a flurry of wrapping paper clean up, and we haven't had luck finding that particular move online which is why I asked. We'll keep looking.
I very nearly bought this unit but shortly afterwards Arcade 1up released their MK unit with the arcade ROMs. Dodged a bullet there. Incidentally, the Arcade 1up cabinet is totally worth it.
Unfortunately not, Eliseu.. I know there's lot, but if you browse some of the comment thread you'll see we identified the Genesis ROM and a lot of experimentation that in jack-squat. All the unlock codes (including ABACABB & DULLARD) are nerfed so all the most visceral fatalities are permanently watered down.
We sure did, Warmotor. I know there's lot, but if you browse some of the comment thread you'll see a lot of experimentation that resulted in jack-squat. All the unlock codes (including ABACABB & DULLARD) are nerfed.
This seems to clearly be the Sega Genesis version. Also, the opening screen that goes into the meaning of the word "code" was where you'd enter the blood code on Sega Genesis. I'm wondering if that code works here? It was ABACABB - Which would maybe translate to LP-LK-LP-HK-LP-LK-LK ?
Lots of discussion in the comments verifying that this is the Genesis version. However, it is also been confirmed that all of the blood codes have been nerfed. Thanks for watching!
Welcome, IX Nine! Yes, this little gadget has that original Sega ROM that has the blood codes completely disabled. So anything that was deemed "not too brutal for kids" like Scorpion's fire fatality is there, but the ones that were behind the blood code (like spine-ripping or dismemberment) are not available.
Yes sub zero for life because I have this exact mini arcade and all I use is sub zero because he is the only fighter I can beat every fighter there is with him, but if I use some other fighter I can not even get to the mirror match.
Great review!!!! Yeah the creator of the machine explained that they went for the Sega Genesis port but also they took the fatalities away since this machine is marketed more towards kids. Personally I feel like kids play way more violent games than this and 8/10 kids probably have MK11 anyhow. I still might pick it up since MK is like my main fighting game that I have loved for years tho.
Yes, and no. Dozens of previous viewers have suggested this in the comments (give them a browse), but we have verified that while this is the SEGA version, neither ABACABB nor DULLARD unlock the gory fatalities.
I actually don’t like the new design of the cabinet with the buttons at an angle. It definitely improves the playability, but at the cost of a more authentic looking cabinet. I don’t think most of us were buying these to play seriously, especially a SIX(!) button game like MK. If we’re thinking about more from the perspective of collecting/displaying, the more authentic cabinets are preferred. These angled buttons make it look like a Tiger Electronics handheld.
You got that right! Sub-Zero is the character to trust! If your not playing Sub-Zero, your not playing Mortal Kombat. Sub has been my favorite since I was first introduced to MK. At school all my friends say they're team Scorpion but I'm sorry to tell them if they chose Scorpion they're ready to lose. Nah Im messin, haha Scorpions an excellent character its just that Im the oddball who teams up with Sub-Zero.
Yeah, that's not a fatality. That's just a complex uppercut. 😜 After much research and experimentation, it appears that although this is the Sega ROM, the blood mode code is nerfed. So you can't even enable proper fatalities.
GenXGrownUp oh bummer. That seems insane that they wouldn’t offer that as an option. Still though it seems like something I would pick up for my collection. Great review
Let's assume that the controls aren't ABC/XYZ since the Blocks have been put on the end. A=Low Punch, B=Bottom Block, C= Low Kick So it could be Low Punch, Bottom Block, Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Punch, Bottom Block, Bottom Block But it could be Upper Block instead of Bottom.
There's no fatality combination guide in the manual, so I don't even know how to do fatalities. I don't have a console to play mortal kombat on either, so I have nothing to complain about and I'm still fine with it.
Hey, Phoenix. I didn't notice any "blinkyness" on my unit, so you may have a defective display. I'd recommend exchanging it while they're still in stock.
I saw a yt short with Kano doing laser beam attack.... That's crazy! In mk1 he doesn't have that move, how is that possible. Also, looks like the genesis version, can you confirm that?
@@GenXGrownUp true, but they gotta turn it down for the kids who decide to buy it. For me, considering how I don't have an appropriate platform to play Mortal Kombat, this is better than nothing. We all have our own opinions, so I'll respect yours.
I just picked this up myself and noticed it has the "but Mortal Kombat contain a code" screen from the Genesis version, is it possible this handheld has a version of the Genesis Blood code?

I bought mine a month ago. Finally played it a few days ago and was like...wtf. No blood? I was gonna see if I could upgrade the screen to an ips. but why bother now. Luckily I have the Arcade 1up machine.
@@GenXGrownUpomg yes. I love it! One thing. The volume. If you purchase one, get the Costco version and not the Walmart. Not only is the volume better. But the screen has better color reproduction.
When you started the game you were supposed to type A blood code if you go to TH-cam and search it up do will be able to get the blood code and that's how you get uncensored fatality well you just performed an censored fatality you need to type the blood code that way you don't get censored fatality
Yep, we know how Mortal Kombat works. 😉 If you have time, take a browse through the comments. You'll see that all of the blood codes have been tested -- this release of the Sega ROM is nerfed to not respect the blood codes.
It Should Be Rechargeable And It Should Have A Flat Deck. 🙏😃👍. And The Reason Why The Sound Mind Sound Awful, Is Because The Batterie's Might Be Running Low.
Rechargeable would be nice, but would drive the cost up considerably. Batteries weren't low during my review, though; they were brand new. Thanks for watching!
As a 90s kid, the wallpaper from the arcade it's incorrect. That's Scorpion from Ultimate MK3. It suppose to have Johnny Cage with a flying kick. The game it looks like Sega version & no blood??
The wallpaper? Do you mean the side art? If so, it's definitely not a direct representation of an arcade cabinet. And yes, Sega but all blood codes are nerfed.
This is definitely running the Sega Genesis version of the game. Sounds and looks the same. And the button layout is just like a 6-button Genesis controller. That's why there's no blood by default.

@@GenXGrownUp That's really weird. I think they should have modified it so that it would load the code automatically. Otherwise it just doesn't feel like Mortal Kombat.
@@sleekflash16 Probably was dummies out so that they wouldn't have to deal with pearl-clutching Karens complaining that their kid accidentally discovered it (or looked it up since it's clearly the Genesis version).
I came here just to see if anyone had the same problem as me. it worked the first time I turned it on then never after that. maybe I just got a bunk one
They should have made a combo 2 in 1. The arcade roms of mortal Kombat 1 and 2. If they actually did that I would have bought it on day one. Your videos are very great and informative. 🙂
I finally got one it's not bad it's the sega version of mk I thought it would be comparable to the sega game gear version or even game boy but no it plays like the tv version of mk 1 thumbs up
Looks like the Sega Genesis rom ported over, but without the blood code put in, which is why Sub Zero just upercuts instead of doing the spine rip. I wonder if its possible to put the blood code in during the start with A, B, A, C, A, B, B....or their equivalent buttons on this version? Also try the D U L L A R D code on the main menu screen....if it's basically the Sega Genesis Rom, it SHOULD work....and you can turn fatalities on from the additional menu. Anyone tried this yet? I don't reeeally want to buy one unless there's a way to get the blood/uncensored fatalities in...but maybe it's still worth $20 though...I mean, that's pretty cheap for some decent portable entertainment...too bad you can't blue tooth link 2 arcades together to play with 2 players...but then it'd prolly be like $60, LOL!
Hey, Nicholas. If you have a moment, browse the previous comments and you'll see a few threads where we've tried ABACABB and DULLARD with no success. This ROM is well and truly nerfed to have no blood enabled.
If it's like the sega version then the cheat code that let's you do the fatalities should be intact just put the code in and you should be able to rip the spine out
Hey, Nick. Keep reading in the comments and you'll see our exhaustive efforts to get the blood codes to work. The code is accepted (a gong sound is heard) but still no blood. This version appears to be nerfed.
@@GenXGrownUp why did you buy this junk then if you have an android tablet just download a genesis emulator or a super nes emulator and download the roms they are better than this
No blood/fatalities is a bummer for sure. I might get it at some point but the lack of fatalities is definitely a turn off. And I still haven't bought the Rampage one so I'm not gonna prioritize this over that one yet.
The blood code works on all units for sure. You'll hear the "ding" when the proper code is accepted, but the fatalities are never bloody. Can you verify, or maybe newer units are different? When did you purchase?
Not all finishing moves show blood when you use the blood code for example scorpion's toasty fatality or sonya's kiss of death and liu kang's cartwheel uppercut they never had blood only ones that show blood are kano's heart rip rayden's lightning head popper johnny cage's uppercut decap and sub-zero's spine rip
This isn't the genesis version as you can see in the video when the continue menu popped up after he died it was the continue menu from the super nintendo version
GenXGrownUp Damn that sucks cuz i like competitive vs, oh well. I’ll still buy it because i also like playing mk on hardest solo and im pretty much used to sega, snes and arcade versions of mk1. But since the blood code is disabled i can deal with that as long as im still playing mk. I’ll buy this later even though its not 100% great lol. Thanks for letting me know dude. I really hope if they release mk2 and umk3 they add a link up for vs match otherwise that would really suck but again im fine with solo its just i like competitive matches since i am a competitive fighting gamer but yea.
Muzical Mastermind Hell yea man even i bought mk advance for gameboy advance back in 2009 knowing that it had bad reviews but i enjoyed the game. The ai wasnt even hard like they claimed on reviews and youtube videos of being impossible to beat. They just werent skilled mk players thats why. I got most of my skills from mk2 and umk3 back then so i knew some tricks and tactics with mk advance. i even put hardest difficulty and i beated it easily with liu kang and i learned theres a trick to throw too and yea those were the days. Mk vs dc i thought was ok too.
@@angelrayvega88 to be honest, I think back then street fighter owned it and now mk does. To be honest it doesnt matter. Retro mortal kombat games are AWESOME, but then the modern ones are just as good. Every mk game is good,espacailly the one you're talking about, as a matter of fact I was JUST playing that NO LIE! Do you like other retro games 2? Or modern? Or both. What games do you play like!!! I'm literally talking to you like a freaking friend and I dont even know you!!!!

IT IS WORTH 20$ ALL DAY IDK WHY PPL ARE RAGGING SO BAD ITS ONLY 20$! YOU CAN DO ONE FATALITY PER CHARACTER EASIEST ONE IS SCORPION ( HOLD BLOCK + PRESS UP UP ) WHEN IT SAYS FINISH HIM! CANT FIND THE OTHERS BUT DUDE YOU DID DO THE SUB ZERO FATALITY IN THE FIRST ONE!!
That's a lot of caps, Steven. 😅 The gameplay is solid for sure, and while you can "do" fatalities, they are the bloodless versions -- watered down for children, but marketed to adult collectors. I think that's the disconnect most people see.

I wonder if you tap “Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Punch, High Kick, Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Kick” on your Arcade Klassics Mortal Kombat during the “Code” screen at the beginning, will it activate the blood and fatalities?
Hey, Sean. A quick scan of the comments section and you'll see that we've all verified that neither ABACABB nor DULLARD code works on this little gadget. The Genesis ROM's blood & more gruesome fatalities have been nerfed here.
@@GenXGrownUp Oh, right on. I didn't see that in the comments. That's too bad, as I remember the Genesis non-blood fatalities were quite lame. The Super Nintendo version of Mortal Kombat had much more creative fatalities. I much preferred the Genesis version of the game versus the Super Nintendo, but only if the blood was turned on for the Genesis.
This is an odd one. The game looks like the SNES version did (near arcade quality) and yet has the Genesis "fatalities". These being the fatalities that were shown if the "blood code" was not entered.
Thanks to lots of viewers & commenters we're arrived at the understanding that this is running the Genesis ROM which has had its blood code nerfed. Neither ABACABB nor DULLARD activate the more vicious fatalities.
I guess it’s for kids that’s why.
The fatalities aren't there because it's the genisis port so you have to put in a,b,a,c,a,b,b on the warrior code screen for the original fatalities and blood.
You'd think so, but no. Both ABACABB nor DULLARD are nerfed in this release, so no bloody fatalities.
Thank-you for trying
3:31 Man did the shao khan laugh
It most definitely the Genesis MK1 version. The ‘code’ screen is where you enter the blood code, which was A B A C A B B and enabled the fatalities, if my memory serves me correctly. I’m guessing on this thing that code would be low punch, lower block, low punch, low kick, low punch, lower block, lower block based on the alternate genesis 6 button controller
Everything you say is accurate. However, this unit is nerfed and though recognized, the code doesn't enable blood mode.
GenXGrownUp oh boo. They should have done the SNES MK1 version instead if that was the case haha
Right?
It's the Genesis version I could tell in 2 seconds. You need the code to do the arcade fatalities.
I had read that somewhere. Being an old guy I never played it on Genesis, only the arcade. Too bad the code wasn't available for me to use for the review!
What is the code?
ABACABB on the screen in the intro where it talks about the Kode. The text turns red if you input it correctly.
That's true on the Sega, Vance, but not so on this Basic Fun unit. The Blood code (and even the DULLARD code) have been nerfed on this unit.
GenXGrownUp Yikes! It might as well be the Super Nintendo version then.
thanks you saved me $20. no blood and or finishing moves
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Ned. Glad I saved you $$, though!
Have you tried the Genesis code? Does it work?
Indeed I have, LcTVirus. If you have a moment, browse through the other comments where we've talked at length about all of the combinations tried to enable Blood Mode to no avail.
I have a quick question. As I'm new to your channel. And I have watched a few of your reviews today. Does that brand as well as the all fun classics mini arcades Have a way to keep them in demo or attract ...meaning they won't cut off After a set. Of time like the my arcade micros... Thanks in great content by the way subbed
Hey, thanks for watching. Since they're all battery operated, the seem to, by default, turn themselves off after a period of inactivity. I get that they make awesome display pieces and leaving them on is something a lot of collectors desire, but short of modifying the internals, it's not just a setting.
@GenXGrownUp make perfect sense thanks for the quick response awesome channel btw it's becoming something i can watch as I dose off and I mean that in a very positive way almost dare I say it ! therapeutic to me keep up the work.🤙🏿
@@theafchefstable8284 Fine by me! Sleep-watching counts the same, and you're less likely to click away if I've lulled you to sleep! Heck, next time your drowsy, spin up a whole playlist! 😜
I don't know a thing about Mortal Kombat, but my sons received this hand held version from someone for Christmas this year and want to know how to throw things. Can you help with that? We've searched all over the internet and can't find the answer. Thanks for any help you can give.
there is a paper in the box with moves plus you can look up Mortal Kombat moves on the net
@@jasongooden917 Thanks. The paper got thrown away somehow in a flurry of wrapping paper clean up, and we haven't had luck finding that particular move online which is why I asked. We'll keep looking.
I very nearly bought this unit but shortly afterwards Arcade 1up released their MK unit with the arcade ROMs. Dodged a bullet there.
Incidentally, the Arcade 1up cabinet is totally worth it.
Cool.
My second cousin bought this and he passed away last March so he left it behind for me when he died.
I'm sorry for your family's loss.
I bought this at a yard sale about a week ago for a $1 and I’m having a blast with it. Shame the blood codes were disabled, but the game play is fun!
Why is this censored, but the TV Plug N Play one from Jakks Pacific isn't?
Ridiculous, right?!
This is the Sega Genesis version of Mortal Kombat
I thought it would be like the original arcade but other than that it's pretty cool
Indeed. Several other eagle-eyed viewers also identified it in the comments.
In the Genesis version at the first menu you my type ABACABB it probably work on your Arcade classic too.
Unfortunately not, Eliseu.. I know there's lot, but if you browse some of the comment thread you'll see we identified the Genesis ROM and a lot of experimentation that in jack-squat. All the unlock codes (including ABACABB & DULLARD) are nerfed so all the most visceral fatalities are permanently watered down.
That’s clearly the genesis ROM you can tell by the ‘code’ screen and 6 button layout. When u tried the ABACABB code did you use the bottom 3 buttons?
We sure did, Warmotor. I know there's lot, but if you browse some of the comment thread you'll see a lot of experimentation that resulted in jack-squat. All the unlock codes (including ABACABB & DULLARD) are nerfed.
This seems to clearly be the Sega Genesis version.
Also, the opening screen that goes into the meaning of the word "code" was where you'd enter the blood code on Sega Genesis. I'm wondering if that code works here?
It was ABACABB - Which would maybe translate to LP-LK-LP-HK-LP-LK-LK ?
Holy crap, this video was 2 years ago 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lots of discussion in the comments verifying that this is the Genesis version. However, it is also been confirmed that all of the blood codes have been nerfed. Thanks for watching!
Your laugh when you gave Liu Kang an uppercut was just like Shao Kahn.
Now that you mention it, I can hear it too!
it was good for me i am a genx adult and the scorpion fatality worked just fine... burnt to a crisp
Welcome, IX Nine! Yes, this little gadget has that original Sega ROM that has the blood codes completely disabled. So anything that was deemed "not too brutal for kids" like Scorpion's fire fatality is there, but the ones that were behind the blood code (like spine-ripping or dismemberment) are not available.
Yes sub zero for life because I have this exact mini arcade and all I use is sub zero because he is the only fighter I can beat every fighter there is with him, but if I use some other fighter I can not even get to the mirror match.
I always gravitate toward the ice elemental-themed character in fighting games. In Killer Instinct I was a Glacius man!
Basic Fun used the Sega Genesis rom. That's disappointing.
And using the Sega ROM would've almost been OK if they hadn't completely stripped out the blood code.
What is the blood code? The sega genesis code doesn’t work for this
Exactly. This Sega ROM has been hobbled to prevent enabling blood.
D U L L A R D
DOWN, UP, LEFT, LEFT, A, RIGHT, DOWN. But I Don't Know What A Is For This Thing
Ferris182 on my game there is a blood code for it. It’s abacabb
They need to re-release a more arcade close version. Especially with blood, the stage fatality, and the reptile fight
That's be nice.
Great review!!!! Yeah the creator of the machine explained that they went for the Sega Genesis port but also they took the fatalities away since this machine is marketed more towards kids. Personally I feel like kids play way more violent games than this and 8/10 kids probably have MK11 anyhow. I still might pick it up since MK is like my main fighting game that I have loved for years tho.
Thanks for watching, Cursed.
This is the sega Genesis version just enter the blood code and you will get the original fatality’s
Yes, and no. Dozens of previous viewers have suggested this in the comments (give them a browse), but we have verified that while this is the SEGA version, neither ABACABB nor DULLARD unlock the gory fatalities.
Ok thanks for telling me
I actually don’t like the new design of the cabinet with the buttons at an angle. It definitely improves the playability, but at the cost of a more authentic looking cabinet. I don’t think most of us were buying these to play seriously, especially a SIX(!) button game like MK. If we’re thinking about more from the perspective of collecting/displaying, the more authentic cabinets are preferred. These angled buttons make it look like a Tiger Electronics handheld.
Excellent point, Paul. Though more playable, less authentic looking. 😀 I hope you will subscribe and check out much more of our GenX-inspired content!
I can’t get Sub-Zero’s slide kick to work. Any advice???
You got that right! Sub-Zero is the character to trust! If your not playing Sub-Zero, your not playing Mortal Kombat. Sub has been my favorite since I was first introduced to MK. At school all my friends say they're team Scorpion but I'm sorry to tell them if they chose Scorpion they're ready to lose. Nah Im messin, haha Scorpions an excellent character its just that Im the oddball who teams up with Sub-Zero.
Same.
Lin Kuei forever.
That actually is the fatality when the blood code isn’t activated. The original Mortal Kombat had a blood code because of parent controls.
Yeah, that's not a fatality. That's just a complex uppercut. 😜 After much research and experimentation, it appears that although this is the Sega ROM, the blood mode code is nerfed. So you can't even enable proper fatalities.
GenXGrownUp oh bummer. That seems insane that they wouldn’t offer that as an option. Still though it seems like something I would pick up for my collection. Great review
Yes, I still think it's collection worthy, unless the no-blood is a deal-breaker for you. Thanks for watching as always, erbwars!
Let's assume that the controls aren't ABC/XYZ since the Blocks have been put on the end.
A=Low Punch, B=Bottom Block, C= Low Kick
So it could be Low Punch, Bottom Block, Low Punch, Low Kick, Low Punch, Bottom Block, Bottom Block
But it could be Upper Block instead of Bottom.
I did that same button remapping math myself but no such luck. 😣
There's no fatality combination guide in the manual, so I don't even know how to do fatalities. I don't have a console to play mortal kombat on either, so I have nothing to complain about and I'm still fine with it.
I'm worried because I just noticed that the screen on mine is ever so slightly blinky but I'm not sure if everyone is like that or not.
Hey, Phoenix. I didn't notice any "blinkyness" on my unit, so you may have a defective display. I'd recommend exchanging it while they're still in stock.
@@GenXGrownUp nevermind, just the batteries 😂😂
Hey Jon I like Street fighter but Mortal Kombat is definitely a classic
You mean, "a Klassic!" 😜
I brought this Mortal Kombat mini and I got 2 because one to open one to hold.
Wow!
Another great video! But, will you be giving Mo and George one too?
(a) Thanks, Stewbacca! (b) Shut up before they hear you! 😜
I saw a yt short with Kano doing laser beam attack.... That's crazy! In mk1 he doesn't have that move, how is that possible. Also, looks like the genesis version, can you confirm that?
Yep. See the pinned comment. 👀
There are fatalities, it's just the pg-13 version.
I used Scorpion's fatality and it worked, it's just *hold block, up, up* (while mid range)
To be certain, fatality inputs are observed, but the fatality isn't performed -- just a bloodless, watered down finishing move.
@@GenXGrownUp true, but they gotta turn it down for the kids who decide to buy it. For me, considering how I don't have an appropriate platform to play Mortal Kombat, this is better than nothing. We all have our own opinions, so I'll respect yours.
Man i have it it has fatalities with no blood but i still enjoy playing
The gameplay is decent, being the Sega ROM, but missing so many of the iconic & gory fatalities is a miss.
I just picked this up myself and noticed it has the "but Mortal Kombat contain a code" screen from the Genesis version, is it possible this handheld has a version of the Genesis Blood code?
Hey, Ablebodz. If you have a moment to browse the other comments for this video, you'll see all the experimentation and confirmation that the blood code is ignored in this release. 😀 I hope you will subscribe and check out much more of our GenX-inspired content!
This is the Sega Genesis version, but they actually removed the blood code. Inputting it at the start will NOT activate the blood.
Hey, Hellacia. I know there's a lot to look through, but if you have time to read below, thanks to lots of viewers & commenters we're arrived at the understanding that this is running the Genesis ROM which has had its blood code nerfed. Neither ABACABB nor DULLARD activate the more vicious fatalities.
Fun Fact: I actually own the Mini Arcade Version You have. Also, Great Video!
That's cool!
Where can I find all the fatalities for this miniature Mortal Kombat
mortalkombatwarehouse.com/mk1/finishers/
Yeah, this reminds me VERY MUCH of the Sega Gamegear version of MK1
Which i got
I was thinking of getting this til I see there are no fatalities and blood. It’s not MK without fatalities and blood. Thanks for the review.
The book that comes with this didn't include how to do a fatality, does anyone know?
www.mortalkombatwarehouse.com/mk1/finishers/
I bought mine a month ago. Finally played it a few days ago and was like...wtf. No blood? I was gonna see if I could upgrade the screen to an ips. but why bother now. Luckily I have the Arcade 1up machine.
Roger that, Don. What has your experience been with the A1U version of MK? Happy with it?
@@GenXGrownUpomg yes. I love it! One thing. The volume. If you purchase one, get the Costco version and not the Walmart. Not only is the volume better. But the screen has better color reproduction.
Is there anything i can do to up the brightness?
Nothing native to the shipping device. Sorry.
5 out of 5 for me cause it’s a small screen cool relic to keep and shows the origins of mortal kombat
Score!
When you started the game you were supposed to type A blood code if you go to TH-cam and search it up do will be able to get the blood code and that's how you get uncensored fatality well you just performed an censored fatality you need to type the blood code that way you don't get censored fatality
Yep, we know how Mortal Kombat works. 😉 If you have time, take a browse through the comments. You'll see that all of the blood codes have been tested -- this release of the Sega ROM is nerfed to not respect the blood codes.
It Should Be Rechargeable And It Should Have A Flat Deck. 🙏😃👍. And The Reason Why The Sound Mind Sound Awful, Is Because The Batterie's Might Be Running Low.
Rechargeable would be nice, but would drive the cost up considerably. Batteries weren't low during my review, though; they were brand new. Thanks for watching!
As a 90s kid, the wallpaper from the arcade it's incorrect. That's Scorpion from Ultimate MK3. It suppose to have Johnny Cage with a flying kick. The game it looks like Sega version & no blood??
The wallpaper? Do you mean the side art? If so, it's definitely not a direct representation of an arcade cabinet. And yes, Sega but all blood codes are nerfed.
This is definitely running the Sega Genesis version of the game. Sounds and looks the same. And the button layout is just like a 6-button Genesis controller. That's why there's no blood by default.
I know there's a lot to look through, but if you have time to read below, thanks to lots of viewers & commenters we're arrived at the understanding that this is running the Genesis ROM which has had its blood code nerfed. Neither ABACABB nor DULLARD activate the more vicious fatalities.
@@GenXGrownUp That's really weird. I think they should have modified it so that it would load the code automatically. Otherwise it just doesn't feel like Mortal Kombat.
@@sleekflash16 My point exactly! 😊
@@sleekflash16 Probably was dummies out so that they wouldn't have to deal with pearl-clutching Karens complaining that their kid accidentally discovered it (or looked it up since it's clearly the Genesis version).
Reminds me of the the Genesis Version with that fatality.
Yes, Robert. It is the Genesis version.
I came here when there was 666 likes. I didn't dare like this video but I did sub to the channel. Great reviews
Quick! Click again to make it 667! 🤘 Thanks for watching, and for the sub.
GenXGrownUp how do you turn off a handheld Mortal Kombat arcade machine I need help how to turn it off
Use the power button visible in my review at 2:30
Thank you
I came here just to see if anyone had the same problem as me. it worked the first time I turned it on then never after that. maybe I just got a bunk one
Sounds like you got a bum unit. Sorry to hear.
3:35 absolutely demolished
LOL!
They should have made a combo 2 in 1. The arcade roms of mortal Kombat 1 and 2. If they actually did that I would have bought it on day one. Your videos are very great and informative. 🙂
That would've been great, Marc. And thanks for the kind words.
@@GenXGrownUp your welcome. 🙂
I finally got one it's not bad it's the sega version of mk I thought it would be comparable to the sega game gear version or even game boy but no it plays like the tv version of mk 1 thumbs up
Despite the negative points, I found it entirely playable, too.
@@GenXGrownUp I never cared as much about the blood and gore aspect of mk just the game play was good for me
@@GenXGrownUp i also got the street fighter mini arcade back in the 90s those two ruled the arcades so I have this mk mini and sf
Looks like the Sega Genesis rom ported over, but without the blood code put in, which is why Sub Zero just upercuts instead of doing the spine rip. I wonder if its possible to put the blood code in during the start with A, B, A, C, A, B, B....or their equivalent buttons on this version? Also try the D U L L A R D code on the main menu screen....if it's basically the Sega Genesis Rom, it SHOULD work....and you can turn fatalities on from the additional menu. Anyone tried this yet?
I don't reeeally want to buy one unless there's a way to get the blood/uncensored fatalities in...but maybe it's still worth $20 though...I mean, that's pretty cheap for some decent portable entertainment...too bad you can't blue tooth link 2 arcades together to play with 2 players...but then it'd prolly be like $60, LOL!
Hey, Nicholas. If you have a moment, browse the previous comments and you'll see a few threads where we've tried ABACABB and DULLARD with no success. This ROM is well and truly nerfed to have no blood enabled.
How did you score the fatality?
I legit cannot find the fatality combo online
Sub-Zero's MK1 Fatality: F, D, F, HP (close)
That’s genesis version with the blood patch not working
If it's like the sega version then the cheat code that let's you do the fatalities should be intact just put the code in and you should be able to rip the spine out
Hey, Nick. Keep reading in the comments and you'll see our exhaustive efforts to get the blood codes to work. The code is accepted (a gong sound is heard) but still no blood. This version appears to be nerfed.
@@GenXGrownUp why did you buy this junk then if you have an android tablet just download a genesis emulator or a super nes emulator and download the roms they are better than this
Mine isnt starting like that and in confused, what do I do?
You can try a factory reset by depressing the tiny button in the back of the unit. Failing that, return it for a replacement.
Where do you find them
I've seen them mostly at Wal-Mart retail stores.
Found this for $5 on clearance at Walmart. Love it but hate the blood and fatalities aren't available
👊
The original spoke the names of the characters like Sonia wins sub zero wins, or it would say fatality
No blood/fatalities is a bummer for sure. I might get it at some point but the lack of fatalities is definitely a turn off. And I still haven't bought the Rampage one so I'm not gonna prioritize this over that one yet.
I’m going buy this put it on my shelf to display it and never turn it on
it seems more like a Sega version. most of the sounds are missing
@EpikKombat if it's the sega version. You should be able to put in blood code.
EpikKombat what would one do with said ribbon to unblock the codes?
EpikKombat it’s all good. I opened it up, but I wasn’t sure what or how to do it.
It's the SEGA GENESIS version and the blood code work's , I have one from Wal-Mart
The blood code works on all units for sure. You'll hear the "ding" when the proper code is accepted, but the fatalities are never bloody. Can you verify, or maybe newer units are different? When did you purchase?
Not all finishing moves show blood when you use the blood code for example scorpion's toasty fatality or sonya's kiss of death and liu kang's cartwheel uppercut they never had blood only ones that show blood are kano's heart rip rayden's lightning head popper johnny cage's uppercut decap and sub-zero's spine rip
This isn't the genesis version as you can see in the video when the continue menu popped up after he died it was the continue menu from the super nintendo version
Are u able to play vs with another player that also has this in person?
Sadly, no, Angelray. This is a standalone Human vs. CPU affair. No multi-unit link-up of any kind.
GenXGrownUp
Damn that sucks cuz i like competitive vs, oh well. I’ll still buy it because i also like playing mk on hardest solo and im pretty much used to sega, snes and arcade versions of mk1. But since the blood code is disabled i can deal with that as long as im still playing mk. I’ll buy this later even though its not 100% great lol. Thanks for letting me know dude.
I really hope if they release mk2 and umk3 they add a link up for vs match otherwise that would really suck but again im fine with solo its just i like competitive matches since i am a competitive fighting gamer but yea.
@@angelrayvega88 Jesus, you a diehard mk fan arent you?
Muzical Mastermind
Hell yea man even i bought mk advance for gameboy advance back in 2009 knowing that it had bad reviews but i enjoyed the game. The ai wasnt even hard like they claimed on reviews and youtube videos of being impossible to beat. They just werent skilled mk players thats why. I got most of my skills from mk2 and umk3 back then so i knew some tricks and tactics with mk advance. i even put hardest difficulty and i beated it easily with liu kang and i learned theres a trick to throw too and yea those were the days. Mk vs dc i thought was ok too.
@@angelrayvega88 to be honest, I think back then street fighter owned it and now mk does. To be honest it doesnt matter. Retro mortal kombat games are AWESOME, but then the modern ones are just as good. Every mk game is good,espacailly the one you're talking about, as a matter of fact I was JUST playing that NO LIE! Do you like other retro games 2? Or modern? Or both. What games do you play like!!! I'm literally talking to you like a freaking friend and I dont even know you!!!!

What’s the fatality’s?
www.mksecrets.net/mk1/eng/mk-specialmoves.php
IT IS WORTH 20$ ALL DAY IDK WHY PPL ARE RAGGING SO BAD ITS ONLY 20$! YOU CAN DO ONE FATALITY PER CHARACTER EASIEST ONE IS SCORPION ( HOLD BLOCK + PRESS UP UP ) WHEN IT SAYS FINISH HIM! CANT FIND THE OTHERS BUT DUDE YOU DID DO THE SUB ZERO FATALITY IN THE FIRST ONE!!
That's a lot of caps, Steven. 😅 The gameplay is solid for sure, and while you can "do" fatalities, they are the bloodless versions -- watered down for children, but marketed to adult collectors. I think that's the disconnect most people see.
@@GenXGrownUp yeah I gotta stop using caps I guess I thought it gets the point across better but it doesnt help so I'll stop using caps
Anyone know why Sub Zero is fighting in Scorpion's stance?
Genesis palette-swap economy-of-memory usage, I suspect.
What's the fatality combo? Does anybody know?
All the normal fatality commands works, but they only result in an uppercut and a congratulatory message.
Well basic fun did a flawless victory here
How do you freeze
Just be somewhere that's very cold and you'll freeze eventually. 😜
