What if Mortal Kombat would have hit the TurboGrafx-16 exclusively in late 1992/ early 1993?

I would have been totally indifferent to it.

What if the PC Engine was designed in the shape of a giant phallus?

It would have been among the killer apps for its time and would have gotten other companies on board to do more games through them.  Due to the success of MK, Capcom might have grown some balls with the whole Nintendo deal.

Depending on the functionality (rumble feature) would have been very popular with teh ladies!  :)

what if the PCFX would have been backwards compatible with CD/SCD/ACD?

The brilliant minds of the NA operations would've marketed it ineffectively (mail order only perhaps), consequently nobody would given a shit and they wouldn't have made back the licensing costs.  On the other hand, had they known what they were doing and had a decent budget, it would've sold a few systems and made them lots of money, much like it did for Sega.

The enormous licensing fee needed to obtain it as an exclusive would have killed NEC/TTI/whoever it was at the time even faster, thus robbing us of all the late games people enjoy paying ridiculous money for now.

And it absolutely positively would not have been worth it. MK basically sucks shit.

1.)You answer the 'what if' question with what you predict would have happened.  
2.)add your own 'what if' in your post and another person answers that one and so on and so on......

See sunteamPaul's post for a perfect example:

It would be the most fantabulous forum in existence.

What if Turbo Duo's, PC-Engine Duo's, Super CD-Rom 2's, and Turbo Expresse's didn't have such a high failure rate due to caps?

BlueBMW would have more free time on his hands... to play LaserActive!

What if TTi/Icom had made Johnny Turbo the Video game using the Camp California engine?  Would it have sold like hotcakes?

I think it would've.

No. You, Tats, der Adol wundertwins and Thibaut would be the only owners of the game.
