Are you sure about that? The publishers could add Steamworks to the game instead (as everyone and their dog claims that it's very convenient) and then release a new Steam-Enhanced version of the game to generate some extra spotlight for it.

yup and arcades! Like Metal slug or Dungeons and dragons! AND MUTATION NATION!

Technically Final Fantasy 7 and 8 have a small chance of coming here since GOG.com works with Square-Enix and both of them have PC versions. As for the others, there is not much chance unless MK comes out on some kind of package of Midway games for the PC but that's even more unlikely as GOG.com doesn't work with Warner Interactive at the moment. As for FF 1,4, and 6, they are unlikely since they have not had PC ports that I know of.

But 1 4 and 6 has been ported over many machines and if they can be on Tablets and Smartphones, they can be on PC aswell.

It's also loaded with Microsoft GFWL DRM which requires you to create 2 Microsoft accounts to even be able to play the game single player and only then with an active Internet connection. The likelihood of them using such toxic draconian DRM on games that are 20 years old and then magically waking up tomorrow and saying "yeah, screw it, let's re-release MK on GOG DRM-free!" just seems incredibly unlikely to me. What's more likely to happen is that when GFWL gets shut down in July as planned, all of the games that use GFWL DRM will cease to function permanently unless the owner downloads a crack for the game and uses it. A little reward for buying the game - having to crack it like a pirate to be able to play it even in single player only mode.

It'll remain to be seen if the MK games get updated to remove GFWL DRM before GFWL dies, but if they do - they're likely to just replace it with some other equally obnoxious DRM or at best just use Steam's less restrictive DRM.

Having said that, I do hope to be proven wrong come July 2014. :)

You could send them a message at www.gog.com/support/contact, if you want. They've got a nice support team.

I know they have a nice support team. Just wanted to get some opinions on that matter from the community.

If I remember correctly the Megadrive games from DotEmu have encrypted ROMs, so you can't just take the ROMs and play them on your emulator of choice. Sega need to understand that they can't treat PC gaming like console gaming; I want to be able to install my PC games on my toaster if I want to. Well, maybe not a toaster, but my homebrewed Wii or the best emulator in the world: OpenEmu

That is true, and I would certainly buy them if they are ported over. If Final Fantasy shows up here, I will definitely buy it.

Especially that ones with better graphics as they appeard in PSP/Smartphones. Final Fantasy 6 is getting the HD/Better Sprites treatment when it releases on phones/tablets

What they will look like on Phones:

The original Mortal Kombat games are on DOS too. At least the first one which I had.
You can buy and play the smartphone/android ports of these games on your PC with the free Bluestacks installed.

I can't get the link right now, but I did find someone who made a script for QuickBMS that extracts the roms from those games. I managed to do it with Gunstar Heroes and it looks much better running it in Kega Fusion.

Both and the Sega Classics script are available from the [url=http://aluigi.altervista.org/quickbms.htm]QuickBMS website. The extracted ROMs are perfect (same hashes as other sources) and are even named appropriately.
