and even if they did want to do that, it would fail miserably. unless they make an ad campaign for it, there's no feasible way it can compete against anything. the only sales would come from the biggest of MK fans, which is essentially a minority of a minority. even the MK Kollection on PS3 sold poorly, and that had the MK games people actually liked.

when people say "oh they should do this, they'll make so much money", they usually don't understand how business works for devteams. if there was any sort of profit to be made off of this, it would've been done already. there's no way in hell it would be a hit on PS4/X1, and the players for PS3/360 is rapidly dropping. at best, they would put it on XBL Arcade, but even that is a huge stretch.

now as an idea, sure, I can see that some people would like that. but the profit isn't there, so it won't ever happen. ...what?! Distance themselves from DEADLY ALLIANCE?! Give me a break, dude. You're clueless.

They'd have every reason to distance themselves from Deadly Alliance, considering it was pretty much a horrible game in terms of story and some weird ass gameplay with a lot of shitty new characters, I doubt they'd really want to spend the effort re-working it for a new release.
