1. I see. Guess that was a noble enough sacrifice then... RIP Ermac.

2. Fair enough. On the note of exclusives and tradition & history though, there's also Nintendo to still take into account, since the N64 version of MK Trilogy and Wii's Armageddon got Khameleon, and Deception for Gamecube got Goro and Shao Kahn. MK9 and/or its sequel being put on the Wii U with an exclusive or two seems inevitable, given how big a Nintendo fan Ed Boon has made himself out to be over time, especially at this year's E3.

3. I guess that makes sense, though whose to say she can't eventually develop some independence, given the right incentive? Quan Chi or someone could find Skarlet and tell her that her master won't be coming back because of what Raiden and the Elder Gods did to him. Then she would either join Quan Chi since she has no one else to work for, or ditch him and try to take revenge on Raiden and the Gods herself, absorbing the blood of other victims as an act of vengeance and growing stronger along the way, until she feels she's ready for Raiden. I don't know, but there's plenty that could be done with Skarlet.

As for Noob-Smoke, let me guess... Because Smoke did not get revived along with Kitana, Sindel, and Subzero during Ermac's sacrifice, Quan Chi will have him be a tag team with the wraith Noob Saibot so Bi-Han will be able to get revenge on Kuai Liang or some shit? Eh, have mixed feelings about that, or was there something else you had in mind for the return of the Noob-Smoke alliance? Either way, I disliked it in Deception like most, so I can only imagine why you would bring the concept back...
