Anyone got any scans of the Mortal Kombat manuals? Any of them?

I have a couple of photocopied sheets for MK1...
I think it's mostly for the PCB connections & settings
Is that what you're looking for?

I have the complete MKI manual if you are looking for a specific part of it.

I'm pretty sure there's one in my basement.  What do you need from it?

Really its for a friend, he doesnt need specific information, would just like to have it.  I was just checkin for him to see if anyone had a pdf out there.  For one thing, is the ultimate mk3 a different boardset than mk3, or just different ROMs?

I thought it was just a rom upgrade, but my UMK3 board has different dipswitches than on the MK3 manual. It could also be cause they may have released a different board for the Asia/Pacific market. We usually end up with the Jap boards, not the US ones.

I noticed in the MK1 manual on www.flipperspill.no, the sound board is a separate board connected by ribbon cable.
Mine is like a daughterboard, plugged directly to the mainboard.

So... does this mean it's not MK1, or is it just a different board? (Jap vs US, or 1.0 vs 1.1, or something)

(can't test my board... haven't built my supergun yet...)

I have seen a lot of MK bootlegs like that :(
But it could be a MK from a different market.  Almost all of the MK1's I have seen on ebay, including mine have that seperate sound board with the ribbon cable.  IIRC, this is how Midway did all their T-Unit games (MK1, MK2, NBA JAM, NBA JAM TE).  Maybe since these games were so big in the states the US boards are more common, and you just happen to have an Asia/Pacific.  I am just speculating here.
