I think you guys are over-reacting a tad bit. The reason we didn't get any of the previous console exclusives (at least the Armageddon Nintendo console version) was because those were worked on after the games were released on the initial console. Around that time, there was no such thing as DLC. However, NOW there is so who's to say they won't put up the additional content for us to buy? It'll milk sales for the initials even more.

The worry is that sometimes even DLC is exclusive.... I'm a PS3 player and had to wait a year (i think) to get the expansions for Grand Theft Auto IV, and I flat out can't EVER get the extra levels for Tomb Raider. It's very frustrating and given NRS's marketing strategy, which seemed focused on the PS3, i wouldn't be surprised if xbox or whatever console missed out on something... especially if there's a delayed release for this crap box of a new console nintendo's putting out.

funny how some say crap box. i see the benefits of this console over the ps3 and 360. for example 1080p graphics. cant do that on those other two. more powerful like 2X more powerful then the ps3. the controller in itself is genius you have the "classic" type of controls and included is the touch screeen with motion control built in. three years after the wii came out both the ps3 (move) and xbox360 (kinect) jumped into motion controls after for years they said it was a "gimmick" now they are saying this is a gimmick as well. what i dont get is why people are so pessimistic about a new console. unless it has a sony or microsoft label on it. everyone doesnt realize that with a touch screen you can actually customize the look of your warriors. put your own touch on the fighters. do first person type fatalities. if you dont understand that last statement imagine it says finish him you imput a fatality code to enter the first person mode and swiping on the touch screen you can cut off limbs or head or cut them in half etc. on a normal controller that wouldnt work. you still haev your directional pad, circle pads, and regular buttons on teh controller.

about exclusive content. i just wanted to say kratos anyone?? will the wii U version include him if they do make it? funny how sony fans scream and yell and complain about exclusives when its not for the ps3 but its all fine and dandy when its a sony exclusive. for example the sony fanbase was up in arms over FF14 not being exclusive to the ps3 and being on xbox as well. it was rather comical. what people dont realize is gaming is a business not personal preference. if a console cant handle graphics and the game but another can. why not be exclusive cause as a dev you dont have to "water down" the game just to get it to run on that console. which is why i have a funny feeling within the next year the Wii U will be getting games that has never been on a nintendo console before and be exclusive as well. (if your wondering slated to being real and being put on wii U is KH3, FF15, GTA5 just to name a few graphic intensive games not being able to run on even ps3 hardware without being watered down.)

To me, NRS should focus more on rebuilding the MK "franchise".
I mean, don't stick just to videogames and ports.
Comic Books, Movies, TV series, other merchandising, etc. with WB on your side you can easily delete bad memories like Annihiliation.
Now, I think that at least one MK game has been released for EVERY console ever released since 1992 and therefore I don't see anything wrong with a Wii U port of MK9.
Problem is when it comes in terms of iOS,Smartphones,Smarpads, and other gimmicks. I don't give a damn about playing MK on my Iphone4 and still I'm begging for a release of Kenshi, Rain and Skarlet alternatives.

About the Wii U itself: I do not know a single thing about the console, so I won't judge. But the Nintendo Wii, save for Zelda and Mario only had horrible games and gave birth to the "casual gaming", which is the ruin of the current videogaming movement. Heck, Nintendo even ruined Metroid...
So, I wish Nintendo would release a more "hardcore" console, but my hopes are in vain.

Interesting news.
I really hope NRS uphold the tradition and put Khameleon as an exclusive character for this verison / game.
I wouldn't be pissed of about that for the reason, that being such an obscure character as she is, any opportunity to appear in the game as actual character should be qualified as big success for all her fans.

Red Sumac

Agreed. No matter what character is introduced, i'll be happy even if they're exclusive. Doubt i will buy but it sounds interesting.

It might be the only way to play with the new Vita costumes on your TV.

At least it's full HD this time!

Now is definitely the time to begin petitioning for an Ultimate Mortal Kombat 9 or AT LEAST another round of DLC, literally. I mean this game went from topping MK2 to collecting dust. Also, this game introduced the 1st and only horror icon to appear in a video game, which was the perfect playground.

WE THE FANS HELPED THIS GAME GET ALL THE AWARDS, MONEY, AND FAME THAT IT RECIEVED, NOW NRS WHERE IS OUR REWARD PROMISED, EVEN YA'LL TOLD US SO MONTHS AGO, PLEASE DON'T WAIT TIL MK10, SOME OF US MAY NOT STILL BE HERE!!!

If anything, in the form of DLC, the missing pieces:

* Create a Raptor Mode: everytime you fully ace one of the ninjas, their random-morphability is added to either Chameleon, Khameleon, and/or Cyber Chameleon (Reptile goes to Chameleon, Cyber Costume of Reptile goes to Cyber Chameleon so now you must ace both versions making the game longer). This mode will be like Combo Challenges for the regular pallet swaps, once all male ninjas are accomplished Chameleon is unlocked, same for Khameleon and Cyber Chameleon. Cyber Reptile's combo challenges will differ than that of regular Reptile. This would give more to do but not too much in the form of every character in the game. Chameleon has 2 costumes - MK2 and UMK3 male ninja costumes; Khameleon has MK2 and UMK3 female ninja costumes, and Cyber Chameleon has MK9 and MK3 Cyborg costumes.

Reptile and Smoke both have Cyber-Costumes that barely change their styles like Sektor/Cyrax.

* Endurance Mode Added

* Extra Stages: Split the current mixed Pit into Pit 1, Pit 2, and add Pit 3 with spinning blades, Boiler Room (random sheep appear but no stage fatality),
Reptile's Lair with snake head rumored fatality, Portal with MKD's stage fatality revamped, Elder God's Fujin's stage with the faces, Warrior Shrine with ONLY the original characters and maybe Ermac's to respect MKSM, and THE TOMB with classic fatality!!!

* Missing Stage Fatalities for current stages: Belltower I mean WTF: give it a unique 2 Fatalites based on the time on the clock: 1. stuck/chopped in gears and 2. classic fall through MANY floors (NO CORNY RATS THIS TIME), Tormentor in Khan's Arena step on opponent flat, Rooftop (Daytime only) knocked into watertower and fall onto electricity, and Soul Chamber gets not 1 not 2 but 3 fatalites: 1. Lava Pit, 2. Octopus Tenticle Squeeze Head Off like Shinnok's MK4 Fatality, and 3. Soulnado Tears Opponent Up.

* 1 Extra Fatality per character (Kitana's MK2 Kiss with veins popping from swelling up but more realistic/gross, Sonya's Flamming Lips, Sektor's Trash Compactor, Cyrax gets his MKDA chipper, Kano's Laser Vertical Slice the opposite direction front falls forward but back stays standing showing all organs still intact, Reptile's MK4 Face Chew, Nail Spit/Eye cocktail, Raiden's Classic MK1 (FINALLY in 3D), Kung Lao's Hat Mayhem from MKG, Jax (revised mixture: Arm Ripper and use arms to smash head), Sub Zero gets MK2 2 Step Deep Freeze, Johnny Cage gets his 3 Head Knock Off Trick, Scorpion gets his MK4 Scorpion Fatality, Kabal's MKD torso slicer, Sindel gets a decapitating weave fatality, Smoke covers ground with smoke where you can only see opponent's head, when it disappears, the head falls and nobody knows what happened to the body in the smoke, Stryker shoots the torso off opponent, Nightwolf gets a SCALP FATALITY, Sheeva Ground Pounds opponent then stomps on the head, Jade's MKD Head Lance, Baraka's Classic MK2 Impale, Quan Chi gets his steal opponent's new fatality Skarlet (stabs herself to the opponent, turns to blood and is absorbed inside opponent, then she completely dehydrates them stealing their blood leaving a saggy bag of skin/bones), Cyber Sub Zero gets MK2 stalagmite rain, Ermac's Telekinesis Psychosis, Noob Saibot clone assembly-line (he summons many clones like Scorpion's UMK3 messup but they take turns ripping parts off and in 3D pass them around like Freddy Kruger in the 5th movie), Rain (new inner-body experience - makes a blood geyser out of the head), and ESPECIALLY Freddy Kruger's Classic Up-The-Wall Degutter.

* Motaro as a sub-boss (Can't use X-Rays, Projectiles, or any finish moves on him; comes with MK3/MKA moveset and is playable in Tower)

* Brutalities (similar to MKT's but with X-Ray Vision and a different simple-finisher on the end per character)

* Tanya - MOST WANTED, give her a yellow female ninja MK2/UMK3 extra costume,
* Fujin - already partially created
* Blaze - MKD version with his own moves/fatalities
* Chameleon - (Sub Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Smoke, Noob, Ermac, and Rain)
* Khameleon - (Kitana, Mileena, Jade, Skarlet, and Tanya)
* Cyber Chameleon - (Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke, Reptile, Sub Zero)

DLC Characters bought seperately from eachother (For those that want them, also Freddy Krueger's icon will be moved to a hidden select screen which all the horror icon characters will appear there when purchased, total of eight characters):
* Michael Myers
* Jason Vorhees
* Candyman
* Letherface
* Pinhead
* Predator
* Alien

DLC 6 Stage Pack: (no specific stage for Predator or Alien)
* Kamp Krystal Lake (chains pull opponent underwater for a fatality)
* Haddonfield Mansion (Michael Myer's House but no fatality)
* Attic (Pinhead's first appearance but no fatality)
* Beehive (Candyman's field with a hive that will act as a stage fatality)
* Dining Room (Leatherface's with crazy family in background watching fight/eating no stage fatality)
* Cornfield (as a reference to honor Stephen King with stage fatality where opponent is turned into the classic scarecrow; occasionally/randomly seen kids run through field)

NOW THAT IS WHAT A KOMPLETE EDITION SHOULD CONSIST OF!!!

I don't care much at this point for what could be added or introduced in an attempt to make it a so called "Real complete edition". But create a raptor? Adding Horror icons?

Really not necessary, and of no interest imo.

-Tanya
-Fujin
-Nitara
-Sareena
And maybe Bo Rai Cho would interest me, still we'll have to wait for a next game so i'll let MK9 collect the dust. The Wii U might end up having cool additions like that if there is ever a release of the game.

Are there news about MK on WiiU ?

Yes...

I still prefer Nintendo out of all the makers of consoles.

Hopefully they include some bonus arenas and alts for the WII U.

Hopefully, there will be a Wii-U Challenge Tower with most of the the content from the Vita (except for the Chamber of the Flame and Kratos since they're only for Playstation)
