I come here, to check about MK Legacy.

Why we can't have nice things... I actually was so happy about having SOMETHING good with MK. I really hope there is something worth in that collection, cause the price alone made me question the sanity of WB.

There's the Wavenet version of UMK3 which was a previously unplayed version of it.
The MK4 Arcade version
Mythologies is in the collection and now has a rewind function

Those are at least the top 3 things that stood out to me.
Still not going to pay full price for it, though, but maybe if it goes down to like $20. Dunno.

I am actually super excited for MK4. This was the very first MK game I owned all together and had made a ton of awesome memories, by having friends over and doing small tournaments on my old PC. Basically the only game that really interests me.

I would have been more excited for MK4 if it was MK GOLD.

This is the arcade version of MK4 with 4 less stages and 6 less characters, no secret Goro and no secret Noob Saibot than what the Dreamcast version would have had.
The only thing maaaaaaaaaaaybe kinda selling me on this arcade version of MK4 is the 4X up-scaling that they have done for it which doesn't appear to be half bad, but still not something I'd get at $50 or more.
$20 would be the sweet spot for me.

So they are charging 50 bucks and give inferior versions of the classic games. Like... you have to be talented to be this stupid. That's a genuine talent.

You're right. I checked MK4 version and yep. It is the basic version. Bro... Are these guys for real?

They completely stopped caring. Cannot even get a proper classic collection.

"BuT WHy aRe yOU alWAYs unHaPPy?" What else is one supposed to feel with shit like this constantly happening?

In fairness, MK4 is the only seemingly inferior one in the Kollection, imo. Even then, they managed be able to upscale it to 4X and the option to play as Meat. Maybe it's me and I'm just more of an MK GOLD snob.

While it's broken (Sektor), for me the superior version of MK4 is the MK GOLD "Red Disc" version 2.0 (which said on the package "Hot! New!) because (again despite broken Sektor) it did manage to fix the other game bugs from the vanilla MK4 and GOLD editions of the game.
It's a version of the game that I DO have, just not a Dreamcast to play it on.........and I'm not spending $150 - $350 (what a Dreamcast goes for these days) just to play 1 or 2 games on it (loved Crazy Taxi too).

Like Commander already said WB will look at poor reception and go ''well I told you no one wants to play these old ass games anymore. Might as well cut our loses here!'' and just like that...There goes the 3d collection and MK9 out the window.
