Yeah, basically a port like I said. Doesn't mean it's not good or no big deal just b/c it isn't a sequel.
Just preference.
This may be the first quality handheld Mortal Kombat Game we've ever had.
For some...that's a pretty big thing.
I'm definitely looking into this game, if not only for nostalgic purposes if it's done right.
And also, here's a link to something concerning actually trying to make a fully 3-D Mortal Kombat Game for the DS.

I much prefer the Old School 2-D Games myself. They were the best in my opinion.
