Hyan36 Get rev 5, then get rev 3, if you want to see Ermacs on the original MK on Mame. Weird, huh? I have no idea how you need a later revision to run an earlier revision. If there's something behind this, please reply.
+asher collier Mame builds make one version the "base", and to run variants you need the files that are replaced by the variant. For example, Mortal Kombat Rev 5 might have files called mk.bin, mk.chara.bin, mk.stage.bin and the rev 3 zip would only have mk.chara.bin if that is the only difference between the two, but it is still dependent on mk.bin and mk.stage so if you tried to run it by itself you'd be missing files and it wouldn't work. Note that this is a very simplistic explanation.
Fun Fact: the character Noob Saibot has an interesting name. If you spell it backwards, You'll get "Tobias Boon." Both Tobias and Boon were, as stated, programmers of MK.
I believe fatalities also came about because ed boon noted the dizzy effect in sf2 made people feel terrible because they couldn't do anything, so rather than have that he'd put the dizzy at the end of the round
so ah people want a red ninja PUT IT IN THE GAME... people want to turn into animals? PUT IT IN THE GAME... people want a woman in red PUT...IT...IN...THE...GAME
wrong kano was removed from mk2 because of a special glitch found in the origional arcade machine for mortal kombat where if you rotated the joystick a few times his now classsic barrel roll move could be spammed, he was removed because of the mk2 tornament so all fights would be fair
Yo guys supposedly you can unlock Fujin in MKX if you use a White Louts Faction Kill on Shinnok after a Flawless Victory with Raiden on Very Hard difficulty. Like OMG! So if this BS becomes popular we'll get Fujin as DLC? Awesome.
The movie "Bloodsport" may have possibly inspired or influenced Mortal Kombat. Both contain death tournaments where the best fighters compete and fatalities are permitted. Another coincidence is that one of the suggested name titles for Mortal Kombat was "Kumite", which was the name for the martial art tournament in Bloodsport. What do you think?
I've been a huge Mortal Kombat fan since I was 7 years old, and I have to admit, there were a couple of tidbits there that even I didn't know, or had only partial knowledge about. Well done!
Funny thing, is that the Clad woman in Kahn's Arena was Kira, from Mortal Kombat: Deception and Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. A Black Dragon thug who was playable in those two games.
My favorite fighting series of all time. I can't describe the countless hours I spent plopped down in the floor with my SNES controller in hand as a young child trying mercilessly to defeat my older brother and perform a fatality. My efforts were futile as he knew special moves such as Strykers gun, and well, all I could do was spam buttons and of course this was before AOL managed to sneak into my home (we didn't even have a PC) and then when we did I had absolutely no idea what HK (etc) was.
Thisis why i love mortal kombat, so many rumors, easter eggs, secrets, and most of them become true, maybe not, this is what gaming should be about like in the 90's so cool to see all of this, they actually listen to the fans
I can remember seeing an article in EGM that stated that Jax was a playable character hidden in the PC version of MK1. They showed a screen grab of him fighting Lui Kang in the Pit stage and performing his fatality (he would tear his opponents arms off.) They also included an image of him breaking the blocks in the bonus stage.
When Shao Kahn isn't fighting people directly, he's busy expanding his empire by merging realms with his own and occasionally takes something as a treasure for his win. At one point, he got so pissed with his failure to win Mortal Kombat, he tore open a portal to Earth and om-nomed nearly every soul in it. But when he is fighting you, he's knocking you several feet into a wall and laughing at your impotence, pours salt into the wound when you lose. That's pretty evil
I love how the MK fatalities showed the fighters had multiple rib cages and several complete sets of organs.
Maybe all characters in the game were supposed to be very creative organ smugglers?
Don't forget the numerous arms, legs and skulls.
And five skulls
ah the 90s
I have five skulls in my body, don't yall?
I love how an error + a rumor + a fake photo = the creation of one of the most badass character on the game.
Hyan36 Get rev 5, then get rev 3, if you want to see Ermacs on the original MK on Mame. Weird, huh? I have no idea how you need a later revision to run an earlier revision. If there's something behind this, please reply.

Oops...
yeah, hsu hao is awesome isn't he?
Lol.
wow, it's funny to think about how stuff like this happened back then with little to no internet lol
Mortal Kombat.
Turning rumours into reality since MK3.
I just find out the existence of this channel, and now I became addicted. it's so great!
RockuMan lol me too
Me too
Same
it's so weird to hear Matt and Pat talking normally. I'm used to them yelling their heads off.
I didn't even know it was them until they talked about their channel at the end
matt and pat sound like matpat from game theory
When he said "One programmer, myself....." He was referring to himself being the programmer. 4 dudes.
Fun Fact: the character Noob Saibot has an interesting name. If you spell it backwards, You'll get "Tobias Boon." Both Tobias and Boon were, as stated, programmers of MK.
Fun Fact: The ninja Rain was created because of the song "Purple Rain" by Jimi Hendrix, thus his color was purple
nah man, chocolate rain
***** Not jimi hendrix, its prince that sings purple rain
HaloReachSponsor Just realized that as soon as I watched the next part. My bad xD
NINJA BRIAN!!!! GUYS I'M I DREONG OR WHAT!....,wait i think this a bad thing for some reason ..HMMMM?!
I believe fatalities also came about because ed boon noted the dizzy effect in sf2 made people feel terrible because they couldn't do anything, so rather than have that he'd put the dizzy at the end of the round
Matt and Pat.... MatPat....
That's what I thought... :|
Illuminati confirmed
But that's just a theory A GAME THEORY
+Irfan Spirtovic Thanks for watching!
+Jack in the Box And don't forget to subscribe to (insert brand name here)
It's weird going back and realizing how common place Matt McMuscles was in gaming TH-cam before What Happened.
Same.
My mom beat me in Mortal Kombat II by button mashing. I had never felt so humiliated.
Could've been worse, she could've done a fatality to add insult to injury
Doesn't matter how old I get or what year it is.....I'll always be jammin to that damn song when it comes on.
XO MORTAL KOMBAAAT!
They should Create a level Called Troll Central & have ED Boon sitting in Shao Khan's Chair.
Khanage Thanks but seriously that would be hilarious!!
BlackJohnnyCage his fatality, pulling out a computer and deleting the fighter
Daniel Eggers 😁 Real Talk
Calm Pat is nowhere near as hype as Angriest Pat!
Real_Ski Good News everyone!,Your all late too the party.
i like how this series was almost fully based on rumors
So basically the developers will do whatever we tell them to, as long as we make our requests in the form of rumors.
MK3 and trilogy were the best MK games hands down
Have you played MK9? It's amazing. Coming from someone who has played every (non-handheld) MK to date.
Whoa, Misty, slow down your role! Jesus Crisit, WTF happened to you lol
before mk 9, yes, after it, no.
No, MK2 was the best. Especially with fatalities (unlike MK3 where all the fatalities were basically explosions).
*****
No stop. MK9 is the epitome of MK.
I would bet that Van Damme regrets not taking that universal soldier gig....
Pat and Matt are just so calm, in these videos seriously
Isn't the woman in the background of Kahn's Coliseum Kira in her alternate costume?
I was waiting for:
"Did You Know: Jax was the fattest kid in school?"
Rip Two Best Friends play. Thank you for everything n
Matt and Pat... Matpat... coincidence? I think not. Illuminati confirmed.
The woman in red in Shao Khan's arena is Kira not Skarlet, however Skarlet did appear chained up every once in a while before her DLC was realeased
Red woman in the background of trailer is Kira. For w fact channel, there are many slip ups.
Ignore the w
5:30 the girl in the back isn't skarlet, its actually Kira from MK Deception
so ah people want a red ninja PUT IT IN THE GAME... people want to turn into animals? PUT IT IN THE GAME... people want a woman in red PUT...IT...IN...THE...GAME
The "red-clad woman" at 5:30 is actually Kira, not Skarlet. You can tell by the outfit.
Man, I love the Mortal Kombat series. The series was always shrouded with mystery and rumors which made it all the more interesting as a kid.
The guy that plays johnny cage is my teacher here in Chicago
Matt used to sound so different
He sounds young. That's all. He's like in his 50s or aomething.
50's?!
Wrong Mortal Kombat was not supposed to be a game adaptation to the movie Universal Soldier but instead as the movie Blood Sport.
If you’re making money make sure you pay sub zero, scorpion, and Johnny cage.
5:31 But that's Kira from Deception (side note: on mobile, can't see annotations)
Mortal Kombat > Street Fighter
Mortal Kombat = Street Fighter
***** Street Fighter>Mortal Kombat.
Mortal Kombat > Tekken > Street Fighter > Injustice > Soul Calibur
Smash Bros. > ALL
YES
MattxPat
I call the ship
MatPat
Now that is fucking brilliant
when being a Noob was cool
I love how the official Mortal Kombat theme comes from a half-decent movie adaptation and not any of the games.
That is really cool. I love how the creators of the game took a lot of input from the fans to get ideas for their games.
Is that Rob Van Dam?
No lol RVD got his name because he looks like JCVD but RVD is American and JCVD is French
ONE OF A KIND!
Wait a second..... Where is all the movie references? Where are the Emma Stone jokes? Did you just hire some impersonators of Matt and Pat?
wrong kano was removed from mk2 because of a special glitch found in the origional arcade machine for mortal kombat where if you rotated the joystick a few times his now classsic barrel roll move could be spammed, he was removed because of the mk2 tornament so all fights would be fair
.........They never gave a reason for why Kano wasn't in MK2 they just talked about a joke.....
Given he said 'myself' after mentioning the one programmer, he's presumably the programmer.
Crazy I pledged a fraternity with Van Dame son Nic, let me tell you party hard lol
no disrespect but the woman in the back is not skarlet it is Kira
+SuperSaiyan3985 what annotation?
+SuperSaiyan3985
That's what i hate about mobile
Yo guys supposedly you can unlock Fujin in MKX if you use a White Louts Faction Kill on Shinnok after a Flawless Victory with Raiden on Very Hard difficulty. Like OMG!
So if this BS becomes popular we'll get Fujin as DLC? Awesome.
What about the nudity code for Sonya in MK1 that was a rumor when I was a kid
5:30 that's kira
was never a huge MK fan but always did notice and love what they did to react to the fans they amassed. well played.
They failed to mention the name of Noob Saibot being the last names of the developers (Ed Boon and John Tobias) reversed.
Wait so Shao Khan lost against some shitty gears of war villain? What the fuck Gamestop?
begins saying was made by four guys....names 5
The Kumotay?
So that’s where Boondocks got that from.
Mortal Kombat DYK's are always so much fun to know. Best episodes ever!
The day I see "Elder Scrolls - Did you know gaming?" on TH-cam, my life will be complete
I liked how they actually listened to their fans and made these characters for them.
The movie "Bloodsport" may have possibly inspired or influenced Mortal Kombat. Both contain death tournaments where the best fighters compete and fatalities are permitted. Another coincidence is that one of the suggested name titles for Mortal Kombat was "Kumite", which was the name for the martial art tournament in Bloodsport. What do you think?

Projared, Two Bestfriends, PBG, Gamegrumps and fun videogame trivia facts.. what a great channel.
I'm here after Spawn reveal trailer
The red chick from Shao Kahn's arena was Kira (a lesser known MK character), not Scarlet.
It's so weird hearing Mat and pay talk without the enthusiasm and excitement and comical jokes they make in their videos
I swear you almost had me.
I was about to throw a fit over Matpat being the one narrating
i can't get over how weird it sounds to hear pat talk like he's reading an infomercial.
wow,Ermac started as a rumor but is now a Character,that is the power of fans
The Laser eye fatality of Kano also start as a rumor, this guys truly listen to their audience.
Funny thing, is that the Clad woman in Kahn's Arena was Kira, from Mortal Kombat: Deception and Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. A Black Dragon thug who was playable in those two games.
"Because of Van Damme's busy work schedule" would not be a problem today.
That was probably the most calming Mat & Pat vid on TH-cam.
5:30 that's Kira, one of the red dragon clan (Kaino's clan) NOT Scarlet
05:30 Thats kira, from Armageddon and deception, NOT skarlet cuz the legs are diffrent designs
That is indeed Kira.
My favorite fighting series of all time. I can't describe the countless hours I spent plopped down in the floor with my SNES controller in hand as a young child trying mercilessly to defeat my older brother and perform a fatality.
My efforts were futile as he knew special moves such as Strykers gun, and well, all I could do was spam buttons and of course this was before AOL managed to sneak into my home (we didn't even have a PC) and then when we did I had absolutely no idea what HK (etc) was.
Thisis why i love mortal kombat, so many rumors, easter eggs, secrets, and most of them become true, maybe not, this is what gaming should be about like in the 90's so cool to see all of this, they actually listen to the fans
I love how they listen to their players.
2:07 more like parents and politics who don’t know that not all video games and or animation is for kids
dat theme brings back some good memories
I had no idea that Mortal Kombat was the reason that the ESRB Ratings were created. And 5:31 was Kira.
The red clad woman in chains in the MK9 arena was Kira
It's good to know that they always listened to their fans by giving them what they wanted :)
I'm proud of SEGA for making two franchises, Sonic The Hedgehog and Mortal Kombat!
Did you know, that Reptile is the best character?
matt and pat r so calm right now I didn't even notice it was them if some didn't put their names there
0:04 Whenever i hear that i picture some guy in the back of an audience yelling during some moment of silence.
Pat sounds quite charming when he's not yelling at everything.
If shang tsung shape shifts as the spy from team fortress 2????
ed boon has been one of my favorite developers :3
I can remember seeing an article in EGM that stated that Jax was a playable character hidden in the PC version of MK1. They showed a screen grab of him fighting Lui Kang in the Pit stage and performing his fatality (he would tear his opponents arms off.) They also included an image of him breaking the blocks in the bonus stage.
I just want to say Kitana using her fatality on Kitana priceless !
"did you know spyro was originally green, but the green blended into the grass, so they went with purple?" *then 5 minutes of silence.*
That's why I love that franchise pure EPICNESS
4 people not including the cast
In UMK3 for iOS,Ermac's bio describes him as a warrior from the first tournament but absent from the 2nd,returning to the 3rd
I kinda thought this was gonna be MatPat from game theory... Oh well thats what I get for not reading
Fire guys? Like... Blaze?
I barley noticed it was Pat,because he was so calm.
pat being informative,calm and a generally cool guy.
MY MIND AND BODY ISNT READY FOR THIS SHIT.
Awesome!! I love that you include the Ermac story!! Great stuffs. Darn tootin' !!
So many things I didn't know about these good oldies.
When Shao Kahn isn't fighting people directly, he's busy expanding his empire by merging realms with his own and occasionally takes something as a treasure for his win. At one point, he got so pissed with his failure to win Mortal Kombat, he tore open a portal to Earth and om-nomed nearly every soul in it.
