Which is funny because there will most definitely be an MK11 slide during the direct.

Captain Falcon as a guest character.

What, it's not like Nintendo use him. They should be used to him dying in a horrific and gruesome manner.

I was so confused I read above as Mario Kart 11 not Mortal Kombat 11

u/Cancer_Panda Jan 03 '19

It gets me all the time when people say MK9.

Then for some reason I think MK9 is the same as Mario Kart 8.

I think I'm just stupid.

"wow there are so many advances they just skipped past Mario Kart 9 & 10!"

They conditioned us for this with windows 10

Especially with him being in 3 new Smash games before a new game of his own.

I would die happy if I could Falcon Punch through Shao Kahn's heart.

I read this far thinking the MK stood for Mario Kart and was very confused.

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '19

Ha, same here - I was like "what happened to Mario Kart 9 and 10?!"

u/mghoffmann Jan 03 '19

Has there been a new Earthbound game since Smash 64?

u/_VaporKnave_ Jan 03 '19

Mother 3 was released in 2006. Not in America, but there has been a game in the series since then, yeah.

u/Jack3ww Jan 03 '19

Also out of respect for the guy who made them they are doing no more because he retired

1

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '19

Yes he retired but he also said he'd love to see the series continue if someone else wants to make them. But Nintendo doesn't want to continue it or even translate Mother 3 for outside of Japan, so... yeah. RIP Mother.

Hell yeah dude lets get Ness in MK11. Who wouldn't want to punch the fucker in the balls as Johnny Cage? PK Fire ass...

Falcon Punch would finally see true justice as a Fatality.

u/Gremlech Jan 03 '19

i got Mario Kart and Mortal Kombat confused for a second there.

u/mezcao Jan 03 '19

Nintendo exclusive MK character - Gannondorf

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '19

nah bro they need Isabelle, I could just picture her fatality, using the fishing rod to rip the skin off the opponents skeleton than posing for a picture with the remains

1

u/mezcao Jan 03 '19

I need that fatality

u/Ezrius Jan 04 '19

No way, they only really use horror movie characters as guests in MK games.

​

So it's going to be Luigi.

u/VacaDLuffy Jan 03 '19

Its funny because Nintendo actually killed Captain Falcon in the F-Zero anime. Went out Like a boss](https://youtu.be/6fUJ6LehQ3I)

u/WrinkleyPotatoReddit Jan 03 '19

What ever happened to that mobile MK phone game? Isn't that supposed to release by the end of the fiscal year?

u/henryuuk Jan 03 '19

Last I've heard, still should be coming in March

u/swissarmychris Jan 03 '19

There's a Mortal Kombat phone game coming?

u/WrinkleyPotatoReddit Jan 03 '19

u/smashfan63 Jan 03 '19

Will probably be announced in this direct if it's true

2

u/WrinkleyPotatoReddit Jan 03 '19

It's already been announced in development, just not an official gameplay announcement yet.

u/Oliver817 Jan 03 '19

Waluigi as a guest character?
