Mortal Kombat was a smash in the arcade and in the home. In 2004 Jakks Pacific released a $25 Mortal Kombat TV game that ran on AA batteries - but this was not simple emulation, rather a custom developed arcade port that was quite impressive given its hardware constraints. In this episode we take a closer look at the version of Mortal Kombat you've probably never played.

That was awesome. Thanks for sharing. That guy certainly was a programming wizard given the 8mb down to 4mb constraint.

Mortal Kombat 2 released in the arcades in 1993. It was a smash hit generating over $600 million in sales and threw down a challenge to Capcom and Street Fighter 2 to be the most influential fighting game in history. There was one problem though, the CPU AI downright cheats its way to winning. In this episode we take a closer look at how the CPU AI worked.
