Ultimate Mortal Kombat Heads to DS
Midway beat 'em up coming this year along with a few other new Nintendo titles
Remember this?
Midway is bringing Ultimate Mortal Kombat to the Nintendo DS this November, along with a number of other new DS. The company joins the leagues of third party publishers upping their support for Nintendo.
SPOnG informed you yesterday of the new Wii titles scheduled for a Christmas 2007 release, the resurrection of the popular Cruis’n franchise and the appallingly-named Game Party.
Also scheduled to hit the shelves later this year are The Bee Game (DS, GBA), which features, err, some bees, and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends: Imagination Invades (DS) based on a Cartoon Network show. Which also sounds a bit sinister.
"The Wii and Nintendo DS require games that are innovative and take full advantage of a unique control scheme to offer a truly different type of gameplay experience," said Matt Booty, Midway Worldwide Studios' executive vice president.
"We are very excited to be bringing classic Midway franchises such as Mortal Kombat and Cruis'n along with powerful licensed content like Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends to the massive installed base of Nintendo system owners."

I bought Ultimate Mortal Kombat for the SNES years ago. I stood in the shop that day with Street Fighter Alpha 2 in my left hand and UMK in my right.
*Note to self.*
Don't EVER do what the right hand tells you!
I imagine you'll get to uppercut opponents from the bottom screen to the top? Correct?

Pushing Ready to Rumble would have been better I think. It's not been used in ages and is ideal for Wii and DS molding.
Mortal Kombat needs a rest, while RtoR needs more ring time. Why is this rocket science to Midway?
SFA3 on GBA will always be better than UMK3. I'll stick to that.
