How the hell did you manage that? As I recall, one of the requirements of reaching Reptile was not using the block button, and that includes the fatalities and Scorpion uses the block button in his. A trivial matter to be sure, but all the same it makes me wonder....

Simply go the right distance, then press up. Scorpion will jump but while he's jumping, keep taping up. If right done, the screen will also darken.
You just couldn't fight Reptile when playing as Sonya as it was impossible to perform her fatality without using. Anyway, this glitch had been fixed in the revision 4.0 of the arcade game.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sweet dude never got to him on mk1 u must have been happy but was he harder then the rest of the roster

You can also go to the right distance and keep tapping high or low punch really fast and he won't jump when you tap up.
