I'm sorry, but I hated the Sega Genesis version, mostly because of the music and sound effects. I didn't mind the graphics, but it was the sound effects and the music that killed it for me. Super Nintendo all the way.
I think the 32X is the best version I have for graphical effect reasons. And it does the demonic sound when drips blood during FATALITY!!! Makes it a winner for me 🙏🏻☯️🐲. I really do appreciate the SUPER NINTENDO version at the same time. 🎛🔉🎵🕹🤘🤩📺🕹😃🎧🎛🔊🎶
I had street fighter championship edition. And a guy in my class traded me mk1 for it. After a week I was like hell no this doesn’t have enough game for me. So I told him wanted my street fighter back, he said no I’ll give you mortal Kombat 2. I said ok. I went home played it and felt played 😢 But I didn’t want to harass him again. Plus I played street fighter half to death and back to life to where I could beat people using one hand . I just couldn’t not understand why probe was making the genesis look incapable of porting mortal Kombat to the genesis . There was too many games on the genesis that used all the capabilities of the system & probe made people start feeling the genesis was at the end of its life. Which was so far from the truth Look at what sculpture software did with mortal Kombat 3, And it was so unfortunate that I hated the crap out of that game . Run & dial combo was just an abomination to me, looking at people play the game and just spam the dial a combo’s over and over and over . My love for mortal Kombat went out like a fire. Wish sculpture soft had did a mortal Kombat 2 tournament edition before they did mk3… so they could have took a bigger ram cart & improved the game considerably when compared to what prove did. And gave the genesis it’s reputation back. This game had all the wrong colors & all the colors was dull and dark. Missing voice & sfx .. & the ones it did have was total ass Missing cutscenes even for the endings. This game was just a piece of turd on the genesis . And u can see sculpture soft made cuts to the snes game to make it work, but they did it so well, you was enjoying the Total package so much, u didn’t have time to focus on what was cut and fixed and edited
Obviously better on the super nes. But not arcade perfect. The genesis 32x version is a step up to the original genesis version. Still not perfect though.
It's amazing how much atmosphere & life was added to the 32X version with the roughly 40 arcade perfect sound effects the Genesis version didn't have. The Genesis version seemed dead. I like going between the 32X & SNES versions now. Each has something the other doesn't & if you combined the best elements from each, we'd have a game easily considered the best home version. SNES has better backgrounds, more sound effects & the ending character screens & the 32X has better resolution on the sprites, higher quality voices & the intro screens. One could toggle between the music from each game & be satisfied, although the SNES has a really good version of the ending music after defeating Shao Kahn that the Gen/32X doesn't. It's like they forgot to make a version of that music for it.
@Biff Tannen Yeah I have both versions too SNES and GENESIS 32X 🙏🏻☯️🐲 And to go back-and-forth between both of them is great And best way to experience both I have to give the edge to the Genesis 32X. For having more on screen graphics. And when the Fatality drips blood it does that demonic sound which the peak of the brain buzz for me that's natural dope. But I do remember in the beginning skipping school in 1994 with a buddy to play MORTAL KOMBAT 2 SNES ... And I remember distinctively we discovered a way with Shang Tusung when you turn to Jonny Cage you can create your own fatalities in the 1st reversion that I have right now of MK2 SNES. And if you don't have the original super nintendo controllers that have L & R printed on the shoulder buttons Of the SNES controller 2nd player will press start on it by itself! Which is annoyance. So if you have both classic controllers it won't start by itself. The acid pit on the 32X has has chains hanging in full arcade effect.. ⛓️🩻 ⛓️ The PIT 2 Fatality feels a little bit more nasty on the 32X you can hear it through the lungs when they splat on the pavement of the PIT 2. But then again the super nintendo PIT 2 looks good too with its mode 7 scaling features for it effects. In my mind 32X PIT 2 has the edge. The worst Mortal combat 2 of them all belongs to Sega Saturn.... I was so disappointed when I bought that buddy it was terrible. The lack of sound effects was unforgivable The game played like silly puddy... Nobody should have let that low quality slip through but they did on SEGA SATURN. Anyway good insight thanks for your comment.
The Genesis version could have been 10X better if Probe did not develop it. Mortal Kombat 3 on Genesis by sculptured software proves that it could do way better.
Not me, but u did barrow one & my friend didn’t want it back They had like two of them I had mk2, Mario kart & mario rpg Those times guys was just giving away 16-bit systems. Psx ,Saturn n 64 was out & 16bit was seen as kids toys by then . I alway felt like mk2 was when people started to shit on the genesis It was such a gut punch & Nintendo followed up with Donkey kong country & super Metroid … the snes was catching stride and putting huge leaps on the genesis 🤦🏾♂️ sega was now taking punches in the fight it was up in the beginning.
I actually don't mind some of the tinnier sound effects of the Genesis version. For some reason, I actually liked the tinnier Armory of the Sega version more than the Arcade version, for some reason. Also, although the graphics in general look better on SNES, Baraka's portrait looks better on Sega IMO. Better defined.
Regardless of the version/console. Both are absolutely awesome, but both cheat BADLY. ESPECIALLY, the arcade version!!! There's a pattern to beating it. 🐸🤓✌️🤘
Well it's sometimes hard to compare as you mostly never use the "same" scene for the different versions. If you compare then you sohuld use the same main character, the same enemy and the same stage.
Genesis vs SNES: Game's look: SNES Game's design/Control: Genesis Game's music: Genesis Game's performance: SNES Overall look and feel: SNES SNES WINS! I may be a SEGA fan but the SNES MK2 is overall better. (Songs in the SEGA one are still a bop tho)
I wonder what would have been if sculptured soft was given the responsibility to do the genesis port as well. Or sega stepped in and it was I given to one of their best partners like Treasure,blue sky, travelers tale or their first party stars. When I look at the game the genesis version & snes version. -probe used up way too much memory on the character stance animation, while sc cut all stance animations down by coupe frames -probe put the name in the life bars & sc did not. Which was the other way around for mk1. I thought overlaying anything ate up ram and decreased processing speed. -probe never knew how to use the genesis color palette ever .! -probe also did not know how to program sound for the genesis & seems as if they used up all the little sound ram on the few songs. & had nothing left for digitized speech and just chopped and squeeze in what they can leaving the voice samples to be very low quality and scratchy. Look at the job sc did with mk3 for the genesis because they knew how to program games and how to make things work, how to improvise and use techniques to get the results they wanted . My suggestion would have been first of all 1. A bigger ram Cart 32 megs. 2.remove the name out the life bar put them on top & transparent & dither the colors in the life bar . 3.decrease ram usage by dropping a tiny bit of the sharpness of the characters not to as blurry as the snes but a bit over it. All that sprite sharpness is unnecessary when u can’t color it fully and have limited video ram & color ram to work with. 4.decrease music quality and loudness to a mid range , utilize some mono sound for certain parts of the music line & low range stereo for the heavy parts. Use the pcm chip on a dual sides mono for speeches 5. Remove the animation on finish him text… just have it pop up on a screen and flash white n red 6.Add the cutscenes in the beginning but instead of a stone background just a black screen & have the images in black and white. Have lui Kang in color & Sho kang in color at the last scene 7.now we can add all the name announcements, fight,finish him, fatality, flawless victory, babailty,friendship. Screams for fatalities, oohs for uppercuts & roundhouses. Trip reaction, grunts for jumping. Yell for throwing a punch n kick. Raiden speech/lui kang speech. And stx for character specials. 8.now u can have the correct color tones & blending & mixing. Red instead of maroon, white instead of tan.. add the whites to character background pics. & different tones used in the same pics instead of one. The correct tones Hughes backgrounds. 9.add little extra animations but not too long on like the legs on Falling, the stumble animation. Ending cutscenes on a black background.
How is that snes? I literally still have nes, snes, genesis, ps1 and N64. MK 1,2 & 3 on SNES and Genesis there is no blood or blood code even with a game genie which I also have🤔

Agreed. Super nes is the better version. Although it's not arcade perfect.
Music and sound was loads better
on the snes its distorted to fuck
@@richardnorman1158 the F you smoking? NES version was more cleaner.
I think the 32X is the best version I have

Bro SNES version was so good that John Tobias who co-created the game said it was the best home console version
Oh yea the snes version was far superior to the genesis. I actually preferred the snes version of mk1 over genesis despite the lack of blood.
I agree with you 100%. The replacement Sub Zero Fatality in it was actuallu pretty cool as well.
Obviously better on the super nes. But not arcade perfect. The genesis 32x version is a step up to the original genesis version. Still not perfect though.
The lack of sound effects kept the Sega Genesis version out of my collection most of the time

Mk II is one instance where I wish I had a SNES growing up
Not me, but u did barrow one & my friend didn’t want it back
They had like two of them
I had mk2, Mario kart & mario rpg

SNES is 👍
Snes wins
SNES wins but genesis is my childhood, I love genesis version
Same here, we’ll put
SNES has more color, more graphical detail, and bigger sprites, but worse resolution, it's fuzzier. The 32x version is actually the best of the 3.
I actually don't mind some of the tinnier sound effects of the Genesis version. For some reason, I actually liked the tinnier Armory of the Sega version more than the Arcade version, for some reason. Also, although the graphics in general look better on SNES, Baraka's portrait looks better on Sega IMO. Better defined.
Baraka's portrait has higher contrast because of the low color pallet. But he's missing frames of animation lol
Actually I really like the genesis one, the sounds and music was very retro and nostalgic, and it was easiest port to beat the game
Exactly! Retro and old, SNES was clean and better.
@@droksbeel BS, you just played yourself boy
Regardless of the version/console. Both are absolutely awesome, but both cheat BADLY. ESPECIALLY, the arcade version!!! There's a pattern to beating it. 🐸🤓✌️🤘
So it wasn't just me😂. MK2 was notoriously impossible to beat
@@viawilderness Oh yeah. Even on the easiest setting.
I grew up with the Genesis version, but the SNES version is superior in almost every way
I play the sega genesis version alot
Should’ve included the 32x port. It was amazing.
goes to show ho much better the snes is over the genesis... no afence genesis...
