It's the same thing as the Sega Genesis version, except a few little extras: CD quality arcade music, "Music video" MK commercial at the beginning and a few extra options in the secret menu. If you want something closer to the arcade, get ahold of one of the Plug & Play units (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FISCSE/qid=1149653937/sr=8-8/ref=sr_1_8/102-7028336-7436110?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=468642)

Sega's first Genesis add-on, the one time innovative Sega CD, was murdered thanks to games that took the disc format and did nothing with the gameplay but add loads of FMV elements that were barely interactive. In terms of fighting games, there weren't a whole lot to be found for the Sega CD, with Sega's own Eternal Champions being the best to be found for the system. The original Mortal Kombat, after already being a smash hit for the 16-bit consoles, made an appearance on the Sega CD, and the overall experience is about as fun as it was on the Genesis. As the previous review states, this Sega CD version is basically the same as the Genesis version (only there's no code needed to unlock the blood effects and arcade fatalities) with CD quality music and a music video. Despite the fact that this version isn't "arcade perfect" as it states to be, it's still one of the few great entries in the library of the Sega CD. If you still own a Sega CD, this version of the legendary Mortal Kombat is worth looking for and picking up.
