EDIT:
In light of some continued, lengthy discussion on this game's development, I've decided to forgo all plans on obtaining an official statement. Even if the situation did warrant it, the (unsurprising) lack of interest towards this topic would make it a waste of time. For now I'm happy to extend some patience, and encourage everyone to do the same.
So haven't posted here in a while, but I've been following the constant discussion, and I think it's time to do something about all this.
From the looks of it, there is a significant amount of people (myself included) who care greatly about this game being released. At the very least, getting to the bottom of this longstanding rumour. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but I don't remember the last time such a thing occurred with another game.
Despite my previous topic, in which I argued against this game being a true HD remake and instead being simply direct arcade ports (or at most only partial HD graphic updates), I still wish the full rumour to be true, and I am still just as interested in exactly what this game is (or was).
The fact is, all the information we have did come from somewhere, and while it hasn't been officially confirmed, it hasn't been officially denied. If anything, it's been avoided. TRMK had a source, the *leaked* box art has a source, and the various companies who listed the game for pre-orders also had a source. While I still hold my doubts on the reliability of TRMK's insider, it is still a source regardless. The game is or was real, in whatever form, and there's a lot of people in the know that aren't talking. I for one don't believe it was simply a prank that went viral.
MK has a huge community, and it's longevity gives it the advantage of having a fanbase within older generations also. There's probably more people out there that are interested in this game than is apparent, it's not just this forum, it's all over the net. So with such a formidable fanbase behind the game, the question is...
Why aren't we doing anything about it?
Not trying to go all braveheart on everyone, but seriously, let's start getting answers. All we've been doing is speculating and arguing over this game for months and months, I think it's time we take some iniative. I know that people have asked before and been met with no reply, but I'm confident that if the whole MK community on here and on other sites got behind this, we'd get what we were after eventually. Call me naive, but I think with enough interest, whoever's in charge would have to reveal something about it, even as simple as stating it's in development, it's delayed, or outright cancelled.
I anticipate a lot of you to scoff at this post, but hopefully it'll inspire some of you. Besides, what's the harm in trying? Otherwise we can continue doing nothing at all. If every single person on here sent one email, that's significant progress already. With your help I'd like to make a plan, a list of people to contact and how to best approach the matter. If you have time to constantly lurk the forums about this game, you have time to do a simple thing with a lot of potential.
And if you're one of those people who think we have no right to ask them about it, I disagree. As loyal customers, we have the right to DEMAND. If there's demand, there will be supply.
Anyone here with me? If so, let's get started.
