That's a bootleg game made out of the gameboy version of MK.

If you look around on the net you will probably find screen shots of MK1, 2, 3, and Trilogy for NES. They were all just hacked up copies of the gameboy games (and Trilogy was just total garbage with like 10 differently colored Kanos) designed to run on the NES.
The original gameboy was pretty much the same as the NES so it was an easy port over that lots of black marketeers tried out. These were the sorta games you could get in chinatown. EDIT: http://tabmok99.mortalkombatonline.com/mkfamicom1.html Looks like some folks here know all about these already, lol.

It existed for the Sega Master System, but it did not exist for the NES, except in the form of the illegal bootlegs made out of the gameboy version.
Well im wondering how and where they make those pirate games officialy , cause every game needs its own processor and plastic box with sticker , also there are some "NES" consoles which looks like PSOne , you CANT make all this stuff in your home you need little more "advanced technology" , so this kind of piracy is official , its from many years and nobody cares that much.

Uhh, not sure what you are talking about. Pirated pretty much means some guys in china popped open the gameboy cart, copied the stuff off of it and put it on NES cart with some tweaks. Just because an amateur couldn't produce it in his garage doesn't make it official. If it is made illegally without Nintendo's permission it is pirated. And the NES carts themselves don't really have custom processors or anything, just a tiny bit of memory. If you ever open up an NES cart its about 80% empty. The carts were easily and inexpensibly reproduced.
And yes, there are numerous version of the NES/Famicom that were made in japan. The one that was released in America was different because they wanted it to look like a VCR. Those other ones tended to look very different and the ones you saw were probably official, Nintendo made ones. There are a couple floating around now that are still chilling under the radar but even those are illegal because nothing Nintendo ever made became Abandonware. That's what those PowerPlayer 256 NES game things they sell at malls are illegal pirates as well. They just haven't invested the resources into stopping them everywhere. They did get the court to block their import and sales in Washington state, and they are currently working on the rest of the east and west coasts.

I thought those things at the mall were fishy. They claimed there was 256 games but it lists over a thousand and it had a N64 controller. Plus, when I played Super Mario Bros, Mario went really fast. Faster than it is supposed to go.

Yeah those are hacked up illegal bootlegs. Most will feature many nintendo games and even still have the Nintendo logo and name on them. I guess they aren't a big enough threat or they are too spread out to really combat them completely.
Although if a selling point of the Revolution will be all the old games you can play I would bet Nintendo will go after them hardcore once it debuts.
