For the record MK makes me think of Mario Kart so at first I was like Mario Kart 11 is coming?! Just like AC means Animal Crossing and not Assassin's Creed to many of us haha. Ah confusion.

Yep. And GOW for either God Of War/Gears Of War is another classic.

Its better if you wait until they release MK11 gameplay on the switch.
No gameplay of switch version with so close to release !?

ill get it on switch if its not a download code in a box lol.

have to be careful these days.

...and Boom!

just like that, it might as well be.  6g on cart with a 20+g day one update.

Wish these companies would either charge a tad more to make up for the larger cart, or just go full digital. I'm so irritated

I guess, for collectors or lovers of physical media...at least there is a cart and you can actually own it, sell it, give it away.

/Sigh

Haha, same here.

Anyway, I more than likely won't get any version of Mortal Kombat 11 because while the game looks kind of funny with the over the top finishers, I doubt it will have gameplay that will interest me for very long. It's not that I think MK is a bad fighter, it's that I generally feel like I am done with fighting games in under half an hour, they're not really my thing outside of a few minutes here and there at the arcade about 20-30 years ago.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Switch is the obvious platform for every game that I can play casually with friends, because I can take it to friends houses easily.
Whenever I get MK11, will be on switch.

I want to get MK11, but not at launch. They'll do the same thing they did with X. 20% of the characters will be locked behind DLC at launch. Then by the time the game is finally finished two years from now it will be 30% of the characters locked behind DLC. I'd be fine if they just launched it and waited six months for more DLC. But they are making characters like Shang Tsung DLC, which is ridiculous. That's like making Mario DLC for Smash Bros. WB games has always been a money grubbing publisher, and it hurts the otherwise great games made by their developers.

I'm gonna be "that guy" but Shang Tsung is not the Mario of the Mortal Kombat universe, Scorpion would be it (a case could be made for Sub-Zero too).



Signature goes here!

True. Shang Tsung is more like Kirby or Samus. It's still ridiculous having him as a DLC character though.

Right?

I mean, who isn't excited about that MK AC crossover?  They've done it once and I'm sure they'll do it again.  And depending on what label you give each that draws up an assortment of images.

Oh my gosh, the first visual in my mind was Mortal Kombat x Animal Crossing. Here's the game:

Welcome neighbor! Or, should I say, potential neighbor. You see, in order for Tom Nook to give you a loan to purchase your home and any expansions of said home, you have to do a little something for him... to prove yourself worthy. A gruesome fight to the death with his legion of Mortal Kombat minions! If you lose, then whatever home you have now goes to a Mortal Kombat character and they become a new neighbor in your town, taking residence in your old home. You'll have to start all over again and build yourself up!

In addition to this being the main feature, here are some others:

Having a good mayor is nice, right? Lose to many fights in your quest to upgrade your home and a Mortal Kombat political party will form. If enough of them are in the town and vote for an MK Mayor, doom will befall everyone in your world!

Think you've mastered fishing/bug catching tournaments? Think again! Right when you're about to catch that valuable bug or snag that juicy rare fish, you may be prompted to button mash 100 times in 3.5 minutes, lest you be assassinated by a rogued Kombatan!

Love that island with all the rare stuff? Think again! Now, it is infested with assassins in a battle royale experience! Can you survive the onslaught to claim the rarest of the bugs?

I could go on but my wife just got home lol.

Awesome!  And very gory, I'm sure.  Would be a great Robot Chicken episode.
