Yeah but remember, not everyone will be ninjas anymore. each one of them that used to be a "ninja" will have there own distinctive look.

And in my opinion, scorpion and subzero is a must have, especially subzero.

Why? I don't get it... what's the issue with the ninjas?? It's not like trilogy were all the ninjas looked the same... Now they ach have theyr own different styles... and the MK ninjas are the most popular characters!!!

I'd rather have lots of ninjas than characters like Hsu Hao or Li Mei...

Li Mei was hot....anyway, i see what ur sayin. Maybe they could bring back the ninja characters, but have them be nothing like ninjas. But i still they should all come back one way or another.

I think it's just the stigma of the fact that they originated as pallette swaps. I mean, people think "pallette swap," they automatically think "filler." Or I do, anyway. I mean, when I see Rain or Ermac, I just remember that they were only created to add in more characters without digitizing new actors. I mean I like Noob, and I kinda like Ermac, but if they were to bring back ALL the ninjas it just seems like such a waste.

But Scorpion and Sub Zero are integral parts of the MK story, and are symbolic of the series. IMO, they are simply indespensable.

I think that the MK team is trying to becareful.Each ninja and cyborg has a cult following so if they put most of them in, and not all, you know someone gettin shot.

Stop complaining man, we already lost 3 ninjas. Smoke was a fan favorite til he was automated. Rain hasnt been in a game that only god knows how long, and Reptile is losing his ninja look and turning into a reptile for good. So i agree Sub-zero and Scorpion cant be taken away, but it would be nice to add a ninja to take reptiles place and i think ermac should be the one.

Actually they're not all ninjas anymore...

Scorpion-Spectre Ninja
Sub Zero- Grandmaster
Noob Saibot-Shadow Assasin
Ermac-Enigmatic Warrior-Shinobi
Reptile-Lizard like being
If they were to come back...
Smoke-Combat technician-Shinobi/Ninja
Rain-Royal Guard-More armoured look

I wouldn't mind having them all back...

Well, I kinda got sick of the ninja's looking the same all the time. But I think most of them are now getting their own look, rpetile, Scorpion, Sub Zero all kinda progressed from MK4 onward. And now it looks like Ermac and Noob Saibot are being taken away form the typical ninja style. So I dont have a problem with them all coming back, as the designers are evolving their images with the storyline.

The guys like Ermac, Noob,and Rain weren't even supposed to look like ninjas, I think that it was just easier for the developers to digitally change the colors of Sub and Scorps outfits and give it to them. I also think that we can't have Mk without Sub-Zero and Scorpion mainly because what would be the point? Atleast the other "ninjas" beside Sub and Scorp are gonna have totally different and cool outfits. *smile*

I wouldn't mind seeing all the ninjas return considering the way everyone has been "Evolving".

And on a side note. Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Reptile are Mortal Kombat's mascots.

I was surprised that noob and Ermac are back. Since they are back there is a chance that rain and smoke will be back. Also the ninja reppy could be a Alt costum or a secret character. (just a thought)

Everyone has hoped that for Reptile at one point or another, Though sadly there's a very high chance that it won't come to pass.

Frost was a shitty filler character. If you didn't realise she was a filler character, watch her ending. She dies like the other filler characters like Li Mei and Hsu Hao. Taking out Sub and Scorpion would be the stupidest idea in the world. Im glad you have faith in the MK series but no one is going to buy an MK game without those two specific characters. Look at MK3. In my opinion it was an 'ok' kind of game, but "a lot" of people hated it. This would be in the same category as in taking out all the good things and trying something new. Killing Liu Kang was a big risk but they pulled it off quite nicely since the story made sense and it seemed like a lot of people hated him to begin with. Taking out major characters without a good reason just to throw in some new ones, who arent ninjas, are going ruin the game. We all know why MK got so much attention other than the blood and fatalities. We all loved the ninjas. Boons not stupid enough to make a retarded decision like that, not yet.

Sub-Zero and Scorpion are teh Ken and Ryu of MK. They stay.

I like the new Ninja character designs, and I think they could all come back, but at the same time I do want new characters.

I myself think Noob was the worst Ninja, just cause his moves looke kinda dumb in MKT. The moves were usefull, but they didn't seem to fit the game... I dunno. Still, I'd rather see Rain than Noob.
