When the first Mortal Kombat game came out Nintendo decided to remove all the blood and gimp some of the fatalities, whereas SEGA left everything intact, you just had to use a cheat code to unlock it on the Mega Drive.
SEGA Kano = rips out his opponent's still beating heart.
Nintendo Kano = awkwardly punches his opponent in the chest. Then they die. Or something.
Of course, I was a little kid and had no internet so didn't know about any of this until I was slightly older. I couldn't understand why everyone thought Mortal Kombat was so violent.![]()
