I pretty much only cared about Scorpion. I really loved his combo set in MKII in particular. Past that I thought the chicks in leotards were pretty hot when I was a teenager.

Huh? I've never heard that. When he beats you in the original arcade version, you're supposed to hear "it's official: you suck".
Neither version actually has any special moves, unless you're counting the 16-bit versions of UMK3. They have different ground combos, but as far as unique moves go, that's about it.
Anyway, the ninjas have always been favorite MK characters, and I'm pretty much a fan of all of 'em. Even Rain (he's badass in MK9).
Favorite male ninja: Scorpion (basically my favorite character from any game, aside from Sonic), followed by Smoke and Ermac
Least favorite male ninja: Reptile (I still like him, though)
Favorite female ninja: Kitana (my second favorite MK character overall, yet probably my favorite to play as)
Least favorite female ninja: Mileena (the amount they've driven up her sexuality in the last few games is nothing short of disturbing)
Favorite cyber ninja: Smoke ('cause he's fuckin' Smoke)
Least favorite cyber ninja: Sub-Zero (merely for the fact that I'd rather he stay human)
Best = Sub Zero and Scorpion because they're the originals.
Worst = The Rest because they're clones, palette swaps, rehashes, and so on. They should just have made a train of different Goros each with his 4 arms growing from a different place: his pate, his mouth, his feet, his crotch, his arse.
@Neovamp = yeah I saw that back then too, I think you've placed it at about the right time. Since I can't help you with which magazine I'm leaving this useless remark here.
That reminds me of that picture i saw in a gaming magazine, must have been right during MK3 development,
It showed a picture of a 6 armed goro monster with Baraka razor teeth, guess it was an early idea for a boss monster for MK3.
Never did see that pic since then, I wish I had had the money to buy that mag, but.. I was young and without money.
Anyone know what pic I'm talking about?
