WRONG!  Here is what I know:

"Over the past several months, you've probably heard an earful of rumors about
Acclaim's adaptation of Mortal Kombat for the Super NES.  The loudest of these
myths is that Mortal Kombat will be made into some wimpy shadow of its arcade
self.  At Pak Watch (an article in a magazine), we thought you should be the
judge.  Check out these fantastic shots.  (Shows pictures of graphics from the
game that look like the arcade in all ways ... background, and forground).  Not
only are the arcade-quality graphics preserved, but the dramatic and rather 
graphic nature of the game play is virtually unchanged.  Out sources report 
that only three moves were replaced.  The way this Pak Watcher looks at it, a 
little variety never hurts anything.  Of course, not everyone agrees.  There 
has been talk of some people who are ready to rip out their own spines to prove how cool they are!  Seems rather spineless to us!  But even more important 
than the debate over the original game's Fatality Moves in the superior play
control and graphics of the Super NES, which will make this home video game version of Mortal Kombat the most fun to play."
