Mortal Kombat (rev 5.0 T-Unit 03/19/93)

Arcade 1992 Midway Fighter Versus
Mortal Kombat is a 1-on-1 fighting game featuring a cast of seven different fighters. Mortal Kombat took ideas from Capcom's seminal "Street Fighter II - The World Warrior", such as the game's special moves and projectiles. It also introduced a cast of photo-realistic digitized fighters for players to fight either as or against.

Battles are fought over the best of three rounds. At the end of a round a voice instructs the winner to 'Finish Him/Her!' and players have only a couple of seconds to try and execute their character's 'fatality', which sees the winner killing the loser in a spectacular and grisly fashion.

Bugs:
- mk, mkr4: [possible] Low punch and low kick Diagnostic/Switch Tests for both players result in sound but no graphic indication. wyrdbug (ID 01203)
- [possible] There are some glitches on the test your might bonus screen and on the attract mode. WilliamBR (ID 01202)

WIP:
- 0.146u2: Replaced bitrotted rom for clone Mortal Kombat (Turbo 3.0 08/31/92, hack) which caused hanging during demonstration [bulldawg].
- 0.146: Fabio Priuli fixed clones Mortal Kombat (Yawdim bootleg, set 1) and (Yawdim bootleg, set 2) crash before OK.
- 0.145u5: MK3Fan added clone Mortal Kombat (Turbo 3.0 08/31/92, hack). Changed description of clones '(Yawdim bootleg)' to '(Yawdim bootleg, set 1)' and '(Yawdim bootleg - Set 2)' to '(Yawdim bootleg, set 2)'.
- 6th March 2012: Smitdogg - MK3Fan sent us an early version of Mortal Kombat Turbo. It crashes in attract mode (on the real hardware) if you don't start a game quickly. Could be a one of a kind kit that was never sold. Or maybe the protection chip has fried on the real hardware and it's just an earlier kit. I am not sure yet. Apparently it has a lot of differences from the 3.1 version.
- 0.145u2: ScheissNussen, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added clone Mortal Kombat (Yawdim bootleg - Set 2).
- 29th January 2012: Mr. Do - Mortal Kombat I and II have been updated. After seeing this post at BYOAC, and then looking back at the artwork, I realized I did a crap job on both of these. So... I redid the instruction cards for both, and added the improved marquees from Lord Hiryu, along with the control panels (all scans originally from the BYOAC / CAG artwork).
- 0.143u2: Colonel_Klink added clone Mortal Kombat (Nifty Kombo, hack). bulldawg, B2K24, kosmo, vascodiaz, Paratech, S. Arnold, S. Healey, J. Bijl, M. David, R. Balke, D. Leipold, N. Francfort, Smitdogg and The Dumping Union added clone (Nifty Kombo 666, hack).
- 15th July 2011: Smitdogg - We have finally found the fabled Nifty Kombo version of Mortal Kombat. It's the rarest version left to find, made by the same company that made Turbo 3.1 and Turbo Ninja. It was really expensive ($320).
- 0.140u2: xDisciplex added clone Mortal Kombat (prototype, rev 4.0 07/14/92).
- 19th November 2010: Smitdogg - xDisciplex dumped Mortal Kombat Proto 4.0. A few differences he found so far: Earliest known version of Mortal Kombat in existence. You cannot play as the same character. Menu won't allow cursors to pass each other in 2 player selection.
- 0.133u5: Jonathan Hughes and Patrick McCarron added clone Mortal Kombat (Turbo 3.1 09/09/93, hack). Changed description of clone 'Mortal Kombat Turbo Ninja (rev 3.1 T-Unit 03/19/93, hack)' to 'Mortal Kombat (Turbo Ninja T-Unit 03/19/93, hack)'. Renamed (mkturbo) to (mktturbo).
- 31st August 2009: Smitdogg - Thanks to MKFIX100 and Patrick McCarron we got a dump of a super rare Y-Unit Mortal Kombat "Turbo" kit. This is also known as the "Nibble" version and probably some other nicknames.
- 0.133u4: Mike added clone 'Mortal Kombat Turbo Ninja (rev 3.1 T-Unit 03/19/93, hack)'.
- 0.129u3: Brian Troha added clone Mortal Kombat (prototype, rev 8.0 07/21/92).
- 9th July 2008: Mr. Do - Mortal Kombat I and II didn't actually have bezels, just generic bezels with an instruction card and other stickers. Changed the artwork to both to be a marquee and an instruction card. (Anyone notice that on the actual instruction card, the dragon symbols aren't actually aligned; that is correct).
- 0.122u6: Changed TMS34010 CPU1 clock speed to 48MHz and M6809E CPU2 to 8MHz.
- 0.122u4: Replaced M6809 CPU2 with M6809E. Changed YM2151 clock speed to 3579545 Hz.

- 26th August 2006: Mr. Do - Added Mortal Kombat bezel from MAME.net and Mean Arena. Some of these decent stuff are so-so; some are REALLY good.
- 0.101u1: Fixed sound1 rom address ($8000).
- 0.97u4: Changed description of clone '(rev 1.0 08/08/92)' to 'Mortal Kombat (rev 1.0 08/09/92)'.
