As it stands right now, the entire MK universe can be downloaded and played on pretty much any major console right now, and rereleases and "arcade-perfect" ports have been included as bonuses routinely.

But, still, to this date, there has not been a retro throw-back disc dedicated exclusively to older MK games, such as the MegaMan collections, Sonic collections, or even Final Fantasy collections.

Today's storage media, especially on, for example, Blue-Ray disc, would be no problem handling the inclusion of every single MK game from 1-4 with any loss of resolution or gameplay. Furthermore, as a fan who missed out on the Dreamcast version of 4, Mortal Kombat Gold, it would be nice to be able to play that version as well, with its superior graphics and extra characters, something I'm unable to do with my N64 version. MK1-3 have been given star treatment before, but not this game, or any version of 4 for that matter.

The whole MK history is one of intense fanbase and fan-loyalty, so I'm sure I'm not alone in the desire for an anthology disc containing the origins and evolution of this revered franchise. Perhaps it's only idle hoping, but it still just feels incomplete. Still, the games are good, no matter when or where you play them, and that's the beauty of the games.
