It couldn't really happen as a glitch because Johnny Cage just isn't in MK3. Just like Kano isn't in MK2. And it's not really a situation like Sheeva in UMK3 for SNES where they basically hacked one game into another and just took out graphics and left the code. _________________ UltimateMK.com - The ULTIMATE Source of Kompetitive Mortal Kombat Information

These screens have counters of how many times each player was chosen, how many total hours of 1 or 2 player games were played, total games, number of continues and stuff like that.
But, the screens also list things like "Watchdogs" which refers to chunks of code that act as watchdogs, looking for errors in the game. When an error is detected, the counter increases. If you run the arcade games in MAME you can use MAME cheats to override memory values and you can intentionally increase the Watchdog counter.
MK2 and MK3 also contain joke counters. Counters designed to create mystery. In MK2 it lists the last game audit as "Kano Transformations" which is supposed to make people think you can transform into Kano somehow, and so they pick Shang Tsung and keep playing as him trying every possible morph, thus eating through tons of quarters.
In MK3 they have "Johnny Cage Transformations" as a joke to try and get people to spend more money finding a morph that doesn't exist.
IIRC UMK3 doesn't have any joke counters, probably because the counter list is full of character counters. |
Thank you for saving me from having to type all this lol. _________________
