There are limitations to how many times certain moves can be used in a combo. Feel free to experiment!
Yes, they do.
Pressing the “Start” button will tag in your other fighter. They will jump in from the same side that your current fighter is on. Holding “Left” or “Right” and pressing “Start” will dictate which side of the screen they jump in from.
The clock counts down slower than it does in normal 1v1 mode. The clock is reset to “99” whenever each character dies. 2v2 matches can last a long time (especially with the tug of war cheat).
Mortal Kombat 2+ is compatible with any version of MAME between 0.119 and 0.203.
The version you use will depend on your computer processor. In theory, the most up to date version of MAME you can use will result in more accurate the game emulation which usually required a faster computer processor to run the game at full speed. If you have a 64-bit processor then you want to use a 64-bit version of MAME (games can run up to 40% faster). It’s best to use the newest version of MAME as long as your computer processor can handle it. We recommend that you use the version of MAME that is offered on the ‘Download’ page. This special version has been modified to recognize Mortal Kombat 2 Plus (etc) as its own game. You may chose to use a different version of MAME, but you may get an error when trying to load MK2.ZIP. Don’t worry though, we will go over how to get around such problems in a later section.
You can get a working version of MAME which we specifically compiled for use with our Mortal Kombat Plus ROM’s from the ‘Download‘ page.
