Mortal Kombat - Controller Fix

For years and years it was an underlying issue not spoken or talked about much on other forums.

For whatever reason, on an original Sega Mega Drive/Genesis console this game only worked with 3 button controllers and only the official Sega 6 button control pad, no third party 6 button controllers would work properly with this game, buttons start and C wouldn't respond with each input and even adding an external extension cable to make the cord length longer onto the official Sega 6 button controller would make buttons start and C very jerky again not responding with each input making the game impossible to play. I always had to sit really close to the Mega Drive console just to play this as I didn't have much cord length as using an extension cable length onto the controller made the controller not work properly with this game only.

This patch fixes all that making the game respond with any third party 6 button controller on an original system. Tried it and can confirm it works great!

This is a 5 star patch and would highly recommend using this one from now on.

Although designed for the stock rom, I took a chance and added this on top of the MK Arcade EE hoping to fix a controller issue with the game.

The Arcade Edition is absolutely great but alot more taxing, so its no suprise, it has some slowdown at times, so an OverClocked system will ofcourse mitigate the issue. I myself am using a pair of 8bitdo pads, and controls goes out the window doing exatly that.. So back to stock speed i went..

Well no more, cos the solution is here..

This hack from BillyTime fixes the issue.. The controlls work flawlessly now, and seems more responsive as well, even without an OC applied.. Perhaps this will be implemented in a later rev, of the game, but till then, this bug-fix comes highly recommended..
