its really cool to see that the developers did quite a lot despite the systems limitations. I just wish that in the game gear and master system versions the developers didnt scrimp on fighting arenas. I also think that they should have added Kintaro. I know its only an 8 bit system but I think they could have pulled it off.
Yeah, in my Mortal Kombats 1, 2 and 3 review for Master System I accidentally referred to them as 'Game Gear' versions. So, well, everyone makes mistakes.
A blue colored "Sports" edition Game Gear was released in the USA. It was packaged with the game World Series Baseball. In Japan, a red Coca-Cola one was also released. The red Game Gear was packaged with the game Coca-Cola Kid.
The graphics are nearly identical on both versions, however, I like how the Game Gear version has a full color palette. The sound is better on the Game Boy version is better, despite the "FIGHT" voice being present on the GG version. The GB version is faster than the GG. It's really just a matter of opinion. I like the GB version better.
The Game Boy version is compatible with the Super Game Boy (released in the USA and Japan). It allows the original Game Boy games to be played on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System with enhanced graphics and better audio.
Hey I have a question in Mortal Kombat 2 for the GameGear does all the characters only have one Fatality as well as a Spike Fatality? One time when the AI as Mileena beat me up I saw it do another Fatality she sliced me up instead of chew me up and I want to know how to do that and if there is more. Please do you know anything about this?
yea he was not in the gameboy version either the only fighters missing in this and the gameboy version are ofcourse kung lao,raiden,johnny cage, and baraka but they are both awesome ports the gameboy port wins over this one though
Ugh, Kintaro was fucking impossible in this version.
Great reviews, man :-) Very fun to watch! Very nostalgic, also. I grew up on MK and have played em all, so it's great fun to go through all your reviews. Thanks for posting them!
Nice review. I'm acually suprised we can see anything at all. Everyone of these early handheld systems had the same problem where you can't see shit unless you're at the EXACT angle of the screen.
look at how much better this is thn mk3 game gear, like mk2 game boy, the controls are spot on, also there is blood during a match and there's a voice?? now that's impresssive i must admit
In my opinion, this is a pretty good version of MK2, although I can't beat Kintaro (too bad I can't use the tactics used in TMK's "how to beat Kintaro" vid).
Only eight kombatants from Game Gear and no Baraka, no Johnny Cage, no Kung Lao, and no Raiden on Mortal Kombat 2, but how do I defeat Jade and Smoke?
well atleat on this version the moves are more responsive than the first one. because i was having trouble trying to do sub's freeze on mk1 what a fustration!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
WTF?. weres Baraka ????. how can they call that MK2 ?. gameboy's sucked as well. if the game doesnt have all the fighter i really dont consider it the game its sapose to be.

The Game Boy version is pretty amazing considering its on a small 8 bit monochrome console. One of my favorite ports actually.
