    For anyone who is watching this, I have to apologize - apparently WWE owns the rights to one of the 32X commercials featured in this segment. As a result, CZcams blocked the video in certain regions. Needless to say, there were a few commercials cut out of the cringy commercial segment. It's not extremely noticeable but it does seem like the video jumps between commercials and trivia. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy!

    That was an EXCELLENT video! Very thorough and I loved that you showed all the different versions. I actually learned a couple things also, I had no idea this was on the Amiga! And I had no idea Ed Boons face was used for the Tree Demons in the Living Forest stage, that was awesome to find out! You definitely did your research and I really enjoyed that! I’ll never get tired of watching Gameboy play of MK2, that version in particular brings back such good memories of when I was growing up. Thank you for creating this trip down memory lane 🙏🏽

    EXCELLENT (Shao Khan voice) video! MK2 will always be my favorite of the series. Walking up to my local arcade back in 1993 and hearing the rumble of the game and seeing the crowds around it are something that I will never forget and could never be replicated. Just a great time in life. Also, I appreciate that shout out at the end 🍻

    I love content like this. It’s like a nostalgic brain massage haha. The kid getting beat up and pee’d on was…unexpected but hilarious 😂 I also agree, the SNES was the best. I think I bugged my parents to get me a SNES just for this game. These videos must take many hours to put together, I always admire those who put the effort in to making them. Thanks for shout out, I honestly didn’t know that was coming and was a nice surprise.

    Great video! I remember playing the SNES version and first discovering what is now known as the "TUG" glitch with Johnny Cage... creating a floating projectile with his fireball throw. Once I realized I could combine the glitch with more characters through Shang Tsung, it opened a floodgate of cool stuff and got a lot more mileage out of that game.... so much fun!

    Yeah, as a kid I was really surprised at how close to the arcade the SNES version of MK2 was. Everything from sound, graphics, and gameplay mirrors the original almost perfectly.

    Great video as always. SNES MK2 port was my favorite, but I also spent a lot of time playing the genesis port. The SNES/Genesis debate on Ultimate MK3 is even more interesting.

    The MK2 PlayStation port had something the Sega Saturn version didn't have. Shao Kahn's voice announcing the winner. You had to enable it in the options.

    I had friends who had both the Genesis and SNES ports of MK 2 but the SNES was my favorite to play out of those 2 growing up. Whenever I had the chance to play the arcade version at the movies or skating rank I would beg my parents for quarters so I can play it lol.
