Apparently I am terrible at Mk

So I just finished my cabinet and I am playing Mortal Kombat, but it seems I am much worse at it than I remember. Is there a way to turn down the difficulty? Are some versions harder than others? I don't rember being this terrible at it.

arcade board? or mame? if mame, try pressing tab and mess with the game settings or DIP switch settings. Also try the TEST menu and see if something is in there....as for the arcade board, i have no idea.

the AI is dumb, do some quick googling and you can pretty much flawless even past goro and shang. Even MKII has the jump back, jump forwar and kick exploit
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.
