I'm surprised to see the GBA Deadly Alliance and TE make the cut. To me, you're better off "cutting things off" at MK4/Gold as that seemed to be the end of the "Klassic era" of the franchise. I'm hoping MK Mythologies makes the cut as well, since it was such a big release at the franchise's peak.

Day one buy for Switch 2. Is Gold confirmed yet or just the Arcade version of 4? Either way, this is quite the collectionn!

And yeah, I do hope the Mythologies makes the cut. But even if not, This is going to be a must get.

From the looks of it, i‘m betting Klassic Kollection in this case might end up containing everything up to Armageddon. I mean, MK9 was NRSs ’reboot’, so everything before that is technically Klassic.

Also, they made GBA MK games?

That was the only thing in that entire live that was worth a damn
AND Im not even an MK fan I own one game in the series (MK for the PS1) and only beaten MK4 in arcade
But still thats a huge swath of games under one tin and thats worth it

I'm a little disappointed at some of the omissions there, like Mortal Kombat on SEGA CD. Or other versions of MK4, or MK Trilogy.

Hopefully they include some sort of "won't read your inputs and cheat" mode or something.
