Mortal Kombat II 2 SEGA Genesis Instruction Manual Only

Listing appears to be for a Sega Genesis paper instruction manual, but images show Mortal Kombat II manual plus a separate Spider-Man/Venom: Maximum Carnage manual, making included contents ambiguous.

Pricing: Do not treat as clean Mortal Kombat II manual-only pricing evidence because the photos appear to include a different game’s manual (Maximum Carnage). Use only as parts/bundle paper-insert price evidence after human confirmation of what actually shipped (one manual vs two manuals).

Unknown candidates

  • Ambiguous manual-only listing: Mortal Kombat II manual plus unrelated Maximum Carnage manual appearing in photos high
    Listing title/metadata indicates Mortal Kombat II manual-only, but images show at least one additional manual for a different game; unclear if it is included or an erroneous photo.
    Image 0: Mortal Kombat II manual front | Image 1: Maximum Carnage manual cover | No seller description clarifying contents

Human review questions

  • Does the listing actually include two manuals (MKII + Maximum Carnage), or is the Maximum Carnage photo unrelated/mistaken?
  • If only one manual is included, which manual shipped (MKII vs Maximum Carnage)?

Warnings

  • No seller description provided to resolve the photo mismatch.
  • Only two listing photos available; no photos of MKII manual back/inside pages, and no photo showing both items together.
