			      Points of Interest

>>>The Vs. Screen Boxes<<<



On the two player "Vs." screen that appears before each battle, six boxes are

displayed on the bottom of the screen.  The three boxes on the left are

controlled by player one, and likewise the three boxes on the right are 

controlled by player two.  Various symbols appear in these boxes, and can be

changed by pressing the button corresponding to each box.  Different

combinations of symbols give different attributes for the battle, such as no

throwing, handicapping, etc.



The boxes are controlled like this: the Low Punch button controls the leftmost

box for the player.  That is, player one's Low Punch button changes the symbol

in the box on the far left, and player two's Low Punch button changes the symbol

in the fourth box from the left.  Block changes the symbol in each player's 

center box, and low kick controls each player's rightmost box.



Here are the possible symbols:



Shao Kahn

Yin Yang

MK3

MK Dragon

Raiden

Shadow of Goro

Question Mark (?)

Lightning Bolt

Skull

Peace sign



Here are a few combinations of symbols and the attributes they produce in the

battle:



Shao Kahn - Shao Kahn - Shao Kahn

	This produces a "handicap" mode, where the player with all Shao Kahns

	on their side startd the battle with half of his/her energy remaining.



Yin Yang - Yin Yang - Yin Yang - Yin Yang - Yin Yang - Yin Yang

	This disables blocking for the next battle.



MK3 - MK Dragon - Mk Dragon - MK3 - MK Dragon - MK Dragon

	This disables throwing for the next battle.



MK Dragon - MK Dragon - MK3 - MK Dragon - MK Dragon - MK3

	"Dark Mode."  The lights are out!  The screen lights up quickly when

	the Kombatants hit each other, but is black otherwise.  Interesting...





>>>Random Select<<<



Selecting a character at random is again possible in MK3.  It is performed just

as in MK2, by holding up on the joystick and pressing start.  Remember to have 

your selection box in its original position when doing this, or it won't work.





>>>Kolor Selection<<<



It is also possible to change the color of most of the Kombatants.  In order to

do this, simply wait several seconds on the Kombatant selection screen.  The

Kombatants who is inside your selection box will begin to change colors.  When

you see the color you want, select the Kombatant as you normally would.
