[edit] Reiko Link

Shouldn't the link to Reiko lead to his character page?

[edit] Removal of "Character Bios and Endings:" section

I removed this section because it was redundent—all the character bio information can be found on the individual character articles, and it isn't necessary to include the endings for every character. In addition to this, the section looked very clumsy and messy. Jeff Silvers 07:21, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

• First of all, it wasn't clumsy and messy, the character bios were meant to serve as giving that character's storyline for the game. Also the character's pages don't tell you all that exactly what words were described, I guess felt it would be good to put them there. How would you do it, if you were the ones putting your time and effort into doing those sections?PNF 16:06, 26 February 2006 (UTC)Proud Nintendo Fan

Actually, I just wouldn't create the section. There's no need to fully transcribe every bio and ending from the game; it's unencyclopedic. Jeff Silvers 00:08, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] random things

Quan Chi was not the subboss in the arcade version. Before Goro being added to the home version there was no subboss at all.

Quan Chi, Fujin and Shinnok did not make their first appearances in a game in MKM. MK4 came out before MKM.

What is this about Kano? Jarek has Kano's moves but I have never heard anything about Kano being in MK4 at any time or having his "skin texture" turned into Jarek.

The bit about MK4 being released as a public alpha test is misleading. Revision 1, the first real nation wide release, had 12 of the 15 playable characters. The only public version to be missing about half the characters was the early stops on the road tour(9 characters) but that was only ever intended to be a preview. Also calling Noob an "obvious place holder" is inaccurate. He was changed into Reiko but was not a place holder. He was intended to be in the game until they made the switch. He had a selection screen picture, the annoucer called his name and he was playable on the road tour. Up until the development of revision 2 he was always planned to be in the game.
