I used to play it with friend and his sister. We would spend hours playing and he was the only friend i ever had that played fighting games with me.
I know i'm blogging but i said that because i'm hoping you're him.I miss you and i'm sorry for realizing too late how important and good you were too me.

As you know, UMK3 was originally an arcade game and that was a way to make the players feel certain conformity since you had to put another quarter to play again and nobody likes to be trashed so fast for the second time. That said I played a lot of arcade UMK3 (I still do) and never seen it as clear as your case so maybe it's a thing of the SNES version (which I never played).

Also, not retro but curious enough, it seems that now Netherrealm (actual Midway MKTeam) kept that in MK9. In the ladder if you die against Shao Kahn like 4-5 times in a row you'll notice that the game drops the difficulty.

I agree that Bison isn't that hard (and definitely easier than Shao Kahn or Motaro) but I disagree with the SSF2T being easier than UMK3. Maybe because I'm a little more used to MK but I also played a fuckton of arcade Super Turbo and in both versions (US and JP) you can adjust the difficulty from very easy to very hard and the difference is almost meaningless from medium hard and onwards. The AI reads you inputs like there is no tomorrow, and it gets worse from the 4th fight and onwards. Seriously, if you have some practice in ST, download MAME and the rom and try to play the game at least until Balrog (boxer) in medium and very hard and you won't notice that much of a difference. Finally about ST, the JP version is a bit easier. Capcom, like any other company, wanted the easy money.

Also this. Scorpion, Ermac, both Smokes and Sektor are safe characters to play against the IA since you can abuse it easily with their teleports + combos.

Simply play at least on normal with a character you like and that'd be it. Beating some games like UMK3 or ST with every character would drive you mad.

He's talking about Mortal Kombat Trilogy. It wasn't a UMK3 version for ps1.
