Mortal Kombat II (MK2) Custom Bezel Insert (moves list)
« on: October 13, 2015, 06:46:48 am »
Hello Mortal Kombat Super Fans!
I snagged some MK2 bezel graphics off of some random forum (maybe this one) and I thought "This looks pretty bad."
So I completely started over and here are the results.

Size: 25 x 25 inches
Fit: Original Dedicated MK2 Cabinet
Print: Heavy glossy paper

This fits well in an original MKII cabinet.
I used a couple pieces of double sided tape to adhere the top of it to the original plastic bezel so that I could slide the glass back into the cabinet without this custom insert sliding around.
I printed it on glossy paper because the matte paper was too dull.
It costed me $40 to print it at Kinko's, but only because I was too lazy to find a cheaper alternative.

I did have to cut the center out of this print. I do not recommend a razor blade to cut the center out because it leaves a noticeable white edge on the borders (cut line).
When I used scissors to cut this, it did not leave much of a white edge, but I had to carefully make a straight cut.

Good luck everyone and please enjoy this!

Ah yes this does look nice  8)
It is formatted well and provides a nice alternative.
Now people have choices! Woot!

The only other bezel inserts I remember were individual cards that needed to be individually placed in the bezel.
It's much nicer to have them all together like these.

Thanks man.

Oh and btw, I just saw your bezel design on MK2 cabs that sold on Craigslist. Great job!

Thanks! I actually made bezels for all the MKs, KI2, Mace: The Dark Age, War Gods, NBA Jam (secrets characters), SSF2 (Big Blue cab), and BloodStorm (19")...

Thanks for posting these!

You're welcome. They are all low-res of course. If anyone wants the high-res versions, let me know.

I didn't realize. I would love a high resolution version of the MK1 bezel.

Hey awesome!
I reworked your NBA Jam TE Bezel so that it would better fit my cabinet. I am not sure if you have a dedicated cab, but I thought I did. I left plenty of black background space so that it can be trimmed for a perfect fit.
*Please not that there are no version numbers in this bezel. Not all characters work in all versions.

I will be updating this next week to include some kind of key/legend (colored borders?) that define which characters can be used in each version (1.0, 2.0, or 3.0). I will also be adding additional cheat codes that aren't currently pictured, like: big heads, baby mode, fast hands, etc...

If you don't care about the revision, this current version still looks great!
Here is my current progress:


Thanks again MK3FAN for your hard work!

P.S. I organized this so that the professional players are on the top row, developers on the side columns, and special characters on the bottom row.
Have Fun!

You're welcome.

Looks great! Did you want the high-res version, or did you already get it from me in the past? Yes, my machine is dedicated and my original file fits perfectly...

These are awesome.  But mk3fan disappointed that there is no separate bezel for umk3 juggernaut and zeus

Thanks! The only difference is the addition of Noob Saibot and he has no special moves or fatalities. A Jugg/Zeus version is not needed.

Here is a picture of my NBA Jam TE Cabinet with my modified bezel. I am now pretty sure that I do not have an original dedicated cabinet, but instead I may have a konami cab or something...
So my modified bezel may come in useful to someone out there.

Same as the guy above me.   
I'm working on a machine and I would love the high-rez versions of some of those.  They're exactly what I'm looking for.

If you can shoot me a PM, MK3FAN, I'd be grateful!

I'm also interested in the high res versions for MK.

With Arcade1up releasing an MK cab. I would modify to fit the screen size and share back to the forum.
