Honestly it all looked good. Nowadays we have old footage that has been captured and processed so much that it makes it look old, but at the time it didn’t look that way. Everything looked sharp and matched the resolution displays had.
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.
Crazy to see how simple the game was made back then and yet the interviewers were struggling to understand wtf was going on, it was such a foreign concept.

Voltei no tempo com essas cenas,joguei esse jogo pela primeira vez em 1994 com meus 14 anos a 30 anos atrás, mk é e será sempre o melhor jogo de luta de todos os tempos.
@crazydrummer181 to be fair, old people are actually making technology worse. Think back to the golden age of the internet before Facebook boomers started taking every 4chan troll job as gospel.
Yoooo this was cool af. Everyone looks so happy and chill. Heavy 90’s vibes too haha. Thanks so much for this footage tho - MKII was my first video game.
Oh man, I remember watching the show "Wild Chicago" on PBS / WTTW. Also glad to see the host of Wild Chicago appear on Chicago PD twice as two different characters.
Everything is just so natural in this video, peoples attitudes were different too, more laid back, back when you were still able to smoke inside places haha
This is so awesome and an important part in the Gaming History. First time I saw this! I though that I've seen all the videos of behind the scenes from the making of MK 1, but no. And I thank you for that
I had seen other behind-the-scene footage before, but this is entirely new to me. It's really cool to see. What a throwback! I'm asking myself why they are still recording character moves, when they've already seem to have the fully featured game standing, right there.
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.
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.
And thankx to this game, We got the ERSB rating. Just goes to show how awesome this game is. Been a big fan since it was released on the Megadrive/Genesis
I was kid when I started playing the game Mortal Kombat. It was such an addiction once you would learn how to defeat the fighters and get to the top where Shang Tsung was and do the fatalities which required the key buttons and moves.
I still remember seeing Mortal Monday advertisements on the back of all my comic books back then. The 90s were just incredible. Nothing has come close since.
Im literally about to cry right now , I was a kid eating at pizzahut when I first saw this arcade I was so excited when played it I didn’t even catch the name of it I thought it was called “midway” until after a week I saw a commercial on tv for it. 😢
Winner stays on the left, and a line of challengers on the right. I remember being in the arcade as a 6 year old n seeing all the middle n highschool kids playing n thought what a cool game this was. This had prob one of the biggest bursts on the scene in gaming history.
I can kinda see what they were trying to do with the Jean Claud Van Dam resemblance but it didn’t translate to the game but in real life he did look similar.
This was 33 years ago; can you imagine what it is like to see something of this content if you existed in 1991? That would be 1958 where there were no microprocessors, no Pong, no Pac-man, no nada.
I remember being a kid and seeing this game in a corner store in philly when me and my bro was visiting our grandma for the summer it change our life 4ever
The beginnings of MK is so fascinating, no large amount of crossover movie characters or highly detailed gore. Just basic concepts that put them on the map when SF2 was the biggest fighter on Earth. What I would give if there was footage of this in the arcades and pulling off a fatality and hear the screams of kids in the arcade witnessing a brutal finish. That's like an event of a lifetime.
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
Yeah it had a special feel to it imho, back in 1992 or so when I first saw it, it's hard to describe and it wasn't like Street Fighter, which was (and in alot of ways still is) the king of all fighting games. ......

I can kinda see what they were trying to do with the Jean Claud Van Dam resemblance but it didn’t translate to the game but in real life he did look similar.
This was 33 years ago; can you imagine what it is like to see something of this content if you existed in 1991? That would be 1958 where there were no microprocessors, no Pong, no Pac-man, no nada.
I remember being a kid and seeing this game in a corner store in philly when me and my bro was visiting our grandma for the summer it change our life 4ever
Still better than the 2021 movie.
The beginnings of MK is so fascinating, no large amount of crossover movie characters or highly detailed gore. Just basic concepts that put them on the map when SF2 was the biggest fighter on Earth. What I would give if there was footage of this in the arcades and pulling off a fatality and hear the screams of kids in the arcade witnessing a brutal finish. That's like an event of a lifetime.
Love this game!
Younger me would have LOVED to watch this. It's sad that I couldn't back then.
-sees heart get ripped out-
'so this isn't meant for kids'
'actually, it is'
I was definitely NOT expecting this amount of patience and kind response to those... ummm.... "questions".😅
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.
1:45 A-ha! So THAT'S where Triple H got it from! 😂
Haha!!! I’m glad I’m not the only one who caught that 😂
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.

History in the making.
😎🖐👍👍👍
"OH THAT WAS BLOOD!" I sensed that excitement
God bless the nerds ❤
Yeah it had a special feel to it imho, back in 1992 or so when I first saw it, it's hard to describe and it wasn't like Street Fighter, which was (and in alot of ways still is) the king of all fighting games. ......
This interviewer was acting like he didn't know what a back brace was, lmfaoooooooo....
