Witchboard:
I recently have seen a Mortal Kombat with an extra board for network play for sale. I can't remember if it was on eBay or another forum. I also can't remember which Mortal Kombat it was. I'll do some searching and see if I can find it again.

It's on the innerwebs so it must be true! ;D

Malenko:
No, it existed. It was midways attempt to make MK a "tourny" game. They only tested it in a few locations, and there are few if any boards left out there. I'd like to find a board set, not only to run in my cab, but I'd send it somewhere to get it dumped for MAME lol.

fjl:
So this wavenet version was made so players could play each other over the net?

I believe the idea behind it was so they could have tournies at different arcades and then for example, the winner in San Fran could Fight the Winner in chicago. its a good idea but the technology at the time wasnt cost efficient. The crazy part is, it'd totally work nowadays just hook a cab up to a cable modem, but now that the technology is here and affordable, the arcades arent.
