Here's the info on the MKI versions:

Mortal Kombat Proto 9.0

               Proto 9.0 is an earlier version of MK, it really is a
Midway version. It runs on the original board (not the t-unit) and is
pretty similar to version 1.0. All of the moves, fatals, and endings are
in there. You can do the multiple corner uppercut trick, Goro is hard to
knock down (an uppercut won't do it), and there are some small glitches
here and there. It also appears that mirror matches use the exact same
character (no "darkened" character) though I haven't checked all the
characters.


Version 1.0
                    *  First release of Mortal Kombat
                    *  In two player game, both players could not
                       choose the same player
                    *  Liu Kang had Uppercut - Flying Kick Combo

Version 2.0
                    *  More blood added
                    *  Both players could choose the same player
                    *  New Shang Tsung death animation added
                    *  Merchanside promo added

Version 3.0
                    *  Computer IA increased
                    *  Reptile added

Version 4.0
                    *  Reptile clues added
                    *  Sonya could fight Reptile;
                       Block allowed during fatality
                    *  Goro's theme played during all of
                       Endurance Three

Mortal Kombat T-Unit Board

               The MK T-Unit was an official Midway game board. Basically,
Midway came out with a better piece of hardware (the T-Unit motherboard)
which is what NBA Jam and MKII run on. Toward the end of the MK hardware
run, they switched to this motherboard. If you look at it, it looks just
like an NBA Jam board, but with MK roms on it. The version of the game
(program roms) are at UG12 and UJ12 as opposed to U89 and U105 on the
older version.
               The version roms for the T-unit won't work on the older MK
board, so you would have to have a T-unit to run 5.0
               Additionally, MK 4.0 was released for the T-Unit board,
however, it had bugs in it. Because of this Midway released version 5.0
for the T-Unit which was basically just a bug fix release


Mortal Kombat 3.1 Turbo

               Mortal Kombat I 3.1 Turbo/Kombo board: Take Mortal Kombat
and kick up the speed; then tweek the game play for more juggling and you
have this game. Other features include Sub-Zero's levitating freeze
(freeze the opponent and they float to the top of the screen - devastating
combo possibilities!) and Reptile comes out to
fight more readily (see the picture - note that Scorpion didn't get a
flawless victory and this isn't the pit stage). This is the best version
of MK by far - the Kombo board brings the speed up to MK2 standards.

               The board can be converted back, all you have to do is
remove the daughterboard and one rom and replace them with the standard
roms. MK version ROMs go in sockets U89 and U105 and these are the sockets
that the Kombo version uses. The Kombo version is based on version 3.0
(the test screen calls it 3.1 Turbo).

               The small PCB holds the second rom, a clock crystal, and a
PAL chip (which is likely for copy protection).



Mortal Kombat Nifty Kombo

               Nifty Kombo is probably the earlier version of the Kombo
release. The freeze-levitate doesn't raise the characters to the ceiling
(just about an inch or so) and Goro is *really* hard -- he's like in the
early versions of MK (like 1.0) where an uppercut won't knock him off of
his feet.
               Turbo 3.1 is the one to have, then Nifty just to be
complete. Nifty also has some different writing on the screen in the
attract mode.
