Kintaro & Shao Kahn, how easy it is to beat them...

First, to beat Kintaro, take Kung Lao.  Do your Whirlwind Spin until he
runs into it.  Then, when he flies backward, do it again.  And again.  And
again.  Etc.  He'll get a few throws in the second round, but that's
nothing to worry about.  Since I started using this technique, I have beat
him in two rounds about 3-4 times now (all the times I've played him).
Second, remember the old Sub-Zero vs. Goro trick?  Freeze, uppercut,
freeze, uppercut, etc.?  Shao Kahn eats this up!  End of game.
Third, I did a 2xFlawless+Fatality without block on The Portal (with Liu
Kang).  Nothing.  Perhaps (as one random scrub suggested) you need to do
the fatality when you are in position to walk through the gap in the
railing down the stepping-stones...  Who knows?  Not I.

My random musings,

Our version doesn't have Shao Khan, or at least I have not seen him, after
you beat Kintaro its just Game over....what do you gotta do to get to Shao
Khan?

*BLINK*... umm, I guess that means you are playing on a machine with
chips pre-Rev. 1.0?

My advice: form a lynching mob, go after the arcade owner and FORCE HIM to
order the newer chips.

No, these are revision 1.0's.  Yeah, it blew MY mind, too, but it worked.
