MK1 on the Genesis did indeed have speech. Scorpion said "Get over here" Tsung would say the word fight, and finish him/her as well as excellent now and again. It just didn't have as much speech as the arcade one, but the SNES version didn't say Flawless Victory if you had one (just printed it on screen, arcade version did both announce and print), and the obvious lack of fatalities had them not use the word fatality.
