It may be because I hardly lurk here anymore, but I haven’t seen anybody advocate for a MK representative in Smash, so I’ll step up and throw in the big boy right here

Love MK even if 11 was shit.
The fact it straight up doesn't exist in Japan kind of really hurts its chances though.
Scorpion would be cool to see regardless.

Yeah, that’s a huge hurdle to jump over, but I’d still rather bet on him as a second western rep than Steve Minecraft or Geno Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

There's a cult following in Japan but it won't be enough
They do meet ups, exchange merch, and translate the games

At least one of them is cool with Scorpion in Smash
Oddly enough, the MK mobile game is available in Japan complete with translated text
Probably because the violence is nowhere near as intense

Yea Forums hates MK. But yeah, I would kill for Scorpion being in smash

You smash fags are the worst

Would love to see Scorpion(with all those Ninja alt colors) or Raiden. Not even a huge fan of MK.

>tfw you love MK, Doom, and Smash, but the first two likely aren't getting in the third anytime soon

He’d be great, might even convince me to get a Switch.

we've had comfy MK threads until 11 happened

Let me get this straight...

>Someone wants Doom Slayer...
>"Nuuuuh, too violent, too gory, "insert any fucking rule you can pull up your ass here"
>Someone wants Scorpion...
>BASED, BASED, BASED.

Fuck you, seriously. Not even Doombros argue about Scorpion's inclusion, but you guys come in and argue about it. So, fuck your flagpoles.

Because there was bad blood between Nintendo and Boon?

Also the Switch port of MK is complete shit.

>Someone wants Doom Slayer...
>"Nuuuuh, too violent, too gory, "insert any fucking rule you can pull up your ass here"
>Someone wants Scorpion...
>BASED, BASED, BASED.
The only time I saw that was from that dumb e-celeb
Disregard him

Boon's fine with Nintendo

lol no

I'm surprised how rarely people bring up Scorpion/Sub Zero for Smash, they're iconic fighting game characters.

Humanoids think MK characters are too violent for Smash
Spergs think MK characters aren't Japanese enough for Smash

They are pretty iconic, but MK has a very different tone from Smash. Still, Ridley's trailer was pretty brutal in a cartooney way so if they downplay the violence of their moves similar to MKvDC then it should be ok. Completely unrelated, a lot of MK's animations/stances look kinda shit so I wonder how they'd look in Smash. Personally I'd rather have Sub than Scorp, but both of them are alright.

They can easily remove the blood and gore though.
I probably lean a little more towards Scorpion but I really like the freeze effect in smash which Sub would have.

Scorpion worked in Injustice and NBA
Toasty could work as a Final Smash minus the gore and instead just cause an explosion

what a retarded weeb

the same happens to every mk games billy retarded fans started it this time

>MKs gameplay keeps improving with each game
>hurr MK11 was shit
Ok, retard

I'm for it.

Yeah but it didn't peak up until 11
Sure X had it here and there but 11 was the moment Billy went nuts with it
Jax's ending didn't help
We can't have comfy threads anymore and that fucking blows

i don't rosterfag a lot but Scorpion in Smash would be pretty cool even though I like Subby better
he's definitely iconic enough, so his chances are pretty good.

>Liu Kang, you must rape Mario in Smash to save Earthrealm.

Personally, I'd want Liu Kang over Scorpion or Subzero, but honestly, I'd be happy with any MK character getting in. It's hard for me to even choose between Scorp and Sub. I feel like Subzero would have a more interesting moveset, but Scorpion has some iconic shit that would be cool to see in Smash.

i hate those anti-sjw nutjobs when crazy on this game you just know more of those retards will make more when sindel comes out

I would play as Liu just for the bicycle kick

mk is already deader than the multiple years odl games like Tekken7 or DBFZ, despite it supposedly already selling several more million units than those games

MK has shit gameplay, people only buy it for the cinematic shit and drop it when the cinematics start to get repetative. It's gameplay getting marginally better doesn't help it when most other fightering game sequels also get better and they already had much better gameplay to begin with.

?
he is right you retard. MK games were hardly even released in Japan, and Smash is clearly looking for characters that both regions recognize

takes me forever to find a match in dbz and tekken. It only took me a minute to find one for mk11

MK's only contribution to gaming history was the violence rating. Otherwise it's just a casualized SF ripoff with horribly aged visuals and an uninspired no-personality character roster.

Noone in the tournament scene ever cared about it, noone in Japan knows about it.

Currently, MK is a cancer that's killing the fighting game genre. Instead of all the casuals experimenting with different fighting games all of them just flock to MK because of all it's cinematic bullshit, then drop the game when they get bored of the cinematics. MK sold 18 million copies this gen, Tekken (the closest competitor) only sold 4 despite it being a better game in pretty much every regard.

>Uninspired no-personality character roster
opinion disregarded. kill yourself.

>half of the roster is recolored ninjas with different capeshit abilities or ninjagirls
>the rest are just the most straightforward B action movie guys
>outside of Johny Cage not a single one of them has any personality, they are all just "dutyful warrior guy number 100#"

with so many ninjas you would think that MK actually appreciates ninjas, but the devs didn't even fucking know that ninjas are a Japanese thing and not a general Asian thing. They only tried to clear this in Sub Zero Mythologies when they started stating how Sub Zero really isn't a ninja because he is chinese and Scorpion is Japanese so he is a ninja. Tho they still generalize all of them as ninjas to this day in most context. MK has no appreciation to Asian cultures despite most of the games taking place there.

it's been said before. banned in japan and seen as kusoge. now that is out of the way, what happened to him?

Bro, everyone plays on the console for MK

It would be the first time Japan gets to officially play MK characters in quite awhile wouldn't it?

Though honestly they probably just import the latest release I'm sure.

over here in the west during the 90s it was street fighter vs MK. over in japan it was street fighter vs kof while MK didn't exist

>Japanese
>Chinese
>Outrealm Ninjas
????

They're based loosely on Eastern mythos and intended to be parodies not unlike the cheesy Chinese action movies that came out during the timeframe of MK's beginnings.

Also, there are plenty of unique characters that standout beyond Johnny Cage, like the robos, a crook with laser vision, a giant with 4 arms, a centaur, a corpse, etc.

>hardly lurk here anymore
>Smash roaster faggotry
What a surprise

It exist in the 90s. Strange to see it missing when you have gorier games like resident evil.

>Outrealm Ninjas
>????
you realize that Sub-zero and Scorpion aren't from the outrealm but have real life nationalities, right?

the robots are similarly just a bunch of recolors of a very basic idea.
Goro is a cool design for a semi-final boss tho, shame they also just recolored him for the next game as a different character.

Everyone would love any MK ninja in Smash. However they were making a big deal over just now getting a non jap to make music for the game. like 1,500+ songs and they just now got two songs by westerners.
I'd like to think MK being so weaboo would give it a chance but no, it has no chance in Smash.

Sub is a way better choice cause his fatals dont require blood. Also fuck scorpion, dude the worst character in MK11, He is the premium retard of the reboot.

MK11 is, in fact, shit, and way more unbalanced than MKX pre patch. Staggers, 50/50 grabs, D2 mashing, poke spamming, retarded fatal blows, knock back on projectiles, etc. Then you have Liu Kang who's in a tier of his own. You have to be a braindead ape to think this game takes any skill.
I can't speak for PS4, but the game is already dead on Xbox. I'm constantly getting matched up with the same players, nobody is in the rooms, and everybody declines and refuses to rematch in casual despite it being hard to find a match. Stop fanboying.

That's because Mortal Kombat suck dick and always will

Gay ass westernfag series made by edgy dipshits who only care about gore and violence ce and took until the 9th game in the series to learn about depth of fighting mechanics and why they're important. Pozzed devs who dont know how to write compelling characters and are now injecting woke bullshit into mk11. Hardest pass on this dog shit series.
