Digital Foundry: MK1 frame-rate is all over the place (20-60fps), honestly making it a challenge to play [on Switch]
About Mortal Kombat 1 on Nintendo Switch: I'd strongly suggest avoiding this version. Chiefly because the frame-rate is all over the place (20-60fps), honestly making it a challenge to play.
More to come in a DF review, where I'll be covering its visual cutbacks, bugs and more. pic.twitter.com/g55p0hknVT

Once again, releasing half-baked games. People might as well wait for full year before buying a game. Imagine if everyone would do this. Developers and publishers wouldn’t get their money until they patch their games 😁
There really ought to be a quality check before releasing a game. Done by some other company.
They really want to give you the experience from MK1 feels like the first mortal kombat on the switch
Wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t add cross play to the Switch.
This won’t stop until gamers stop buying half baked games. Fanboyism is obnoxious too, people will come up with any excuse to convince themselves a game isn’t trash and lash out at anyone who dares to criticize their favorite game.
After reading the reviews, I don’t know why anyone would want to play this on the switch.

Dog shit trash port and absolutely nobody should consider buying this.
Tbh runs fine for me. I don’t obsess over framerates, you can’t meaningfully measure them in switch anyway. The game is fun and that’s all that matters!
If anyone preordered this, well I hope you learned something.
Okay, here’s something that I’ve seen literally nobody talk about when discussing how bad this port is: that review embargoes completely screwed over customers in this and many other cases. You can look down your nose at people who pre ordered this game, or you can put blame on a company who put out an early access premium edition that was clearly designed to sucker as many people to buy the $110 version of this game before game journalists were contractually allowed to warn that customer base about how unwise a purchase that would be. There’s no reason why it should be standard practice for reviews to come out the week of (and increasingly the day of) a game’s release, and not, say, two weeks beforehand – besides to completely shaft people who like their game bought, paid for, and downloaded on day one.
Looks at Injustice 2 (PC Version) that they never fixed
Yeah, Imma stay away from their games given their track record
Edit: Added the version
The 1 from Mortal Kombat 1 is the amount of FPS you’ll have
