Originally Sector, not Sektor?

[mkfanatic]

Maybe this is already known but I didn't know about it. Sektor was originally called Sector? Probably his first real name besides his Ketchup alias. If you go to this thread here:

and download the MK The Live Tour Electronic Press Kit, play it to 11:17 for a glimpse at the MK3 game. It shows Sektor fighting Kano but it has Sektor's name spelled as "Sector." Obviously in MK tradition, they changed the "C" to a "K" but did anyone ever notice this or see this before? I don't ever remember hearing about him being named that originally.

I can't say that I've heard anything about this, but if that video's all we have to go by, I'd just ignore it. If you'll notice, that's actually the SNES port of the game, and we know the name "Sektor" was already established by the time the home versions of MK3 were being developed.

I do seem to remember seeing that error in preview shots of game magazines, though. I believe it only showed up in the SNES version and I have no idea what the reasoning behind it was.

You know what, you're right. This is the SNES version of MK3. Still, I never heard about the "Sector" error before but I guess it's not exactly news. I wonder why and how it happened.
