First off your a kid in a retro arcade playing a MK II spoof, when suddenly you fall to the floor in seizures. This whole scene is sprited with a touch of photorealism. As the kid falls under the spell (it is later revealed that his brother hypnotized him to fall asleep and live the next game he played) the arcade fades out and your sprites fall into place, with the kid as.the main char.
This story.leaves you open to spoof your favorite game (doesn't have to be mk ii) and remake it.
Check out Black Tiger, Ghosts and Goblins, Castlevania, etc.
