They so far have Mortal Kombat 9 on PS 3 and Xbox 360 and Mortal Kombat Arcade collection for PS# and presumably 360 unless they use the cell processor. What the heck should they do on Wii?

Continue ignoring it?

It's more frustrating waiting for the asskicking than the asskicking itself.

They should at least do something to please Nintendo fans. And, why would they ignore the Wii?

Hint: Not all Nintendo fans are fans of Mortal Kombat.

I used to be, but the series lost my interest somewhere around Deadly Alliance.

Because some people don't have a HD system and are not pleased with Armageddon.

The past Mortal Kombat games on Nintendo systems have not gotten the greatest ratings.

Do the math.

I assume they never develop anything for the Wii because they a) don't feel like a Mortal Kombat game should be on the console, b) don't think the Wii can push out what they want from the series graphically and c) haven't figured out a way to utilize the Wii's motion controls into the gameplay effectively.

They also probably believe most MK fans (and fans of fighters in general) have one of the other two consoles. Online play and Leaderboards and the like seem more relative to the 360 and the PS 3 than the Wii.

They could just let you use the Clasic Controllor for your MK-fix.

Plus for people like me, there's already Brawl and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom to satisfy my fighting fix on the Wii.

MK can't compare to those two.

Yes, indeed. Wii would like some more high quality fighting games on there.

^^ Oh, give them a little credit. At the time, they were pretty much the only fighting series that made an actual effort with story and character.

They should at least do something to please Nintendo fans.

Because Nintendo have always treated MK so well.

The main problem as far as I see it is that the audiences of Mortal Kombat and the Wii clash. The Wii focuses on the casual gamers and the young. The gore and multiplayer of Mortal Kombat is more suited for adult and hardcore gamers.

Blood and gore is not "causal", it is even more "common" than "causal". Blood gore & sex = Common Farmville = "causal" Mario = Gameplay =D

A guy called dvorak is tired. Tired of humanity not wanting to change to improve itself. Quite the sad tale.

They could appeal to the people who are casual gamers now but used to play it, the old loyalists, and others.

How is Mortal Kombat 9 Unsutibale for Wii? And what would a Mortal Kombat game suitable for Wii be like?

Um, I take it you missed Mortal Kombat Armageddon, then? It wasn't that good, but at least it was properly gory.

EDIT: Ninja'd.

I'll never understand your obsession with darker = automatically better. Nor do I want to.
