Collector interest
The Japanese version of Mortal Kombat II, an entry often held to be the peak of the arcade series, whose reception in Japan nonetheless stayed limited against local genre competition. That lack of interest meant a small Japanese run, harder to find than the abundant Western editions. Desirability blends the respected standing of this entry with the regional scarcity of an uncommon Japanese release.
A questionable morality
The tournament is won on skill, but its trademark remains the finishing blow: once your opponent is beaten, the game politely invites you to dispatch them in the most spectacular and bloody way possible. You perform these finishers with the care of a craftsman, turning the kill into a compulsory figure you drill to land like any other combo.
