Line 92:
** Kano's bionic eye in always faced the camera until the series went into 3D.
** ''[[Mortal Kombat 4]]'' (despite using 3D models instead of digitized sprites) would still employ mirroring if the characters reversed sides. It was especially noticeable with weapon-wielding characters.
** Cleverly Averted in ''[[Mortal Kombat 9]]'' with [[Guest Fighter]] Freddy Kruger. [[A Nightmare on Elm Street| The canon version]] uses a razor-glove on his right hand, but the game designers give him a second one on his left hand, simply to avoid this Trope.
* ''[[The King of Fighters|King of Fighters]]'' also had a plenty of these. First, we have another bionic eye example, except the one who has it this time is Rugal. Next, Brian Battler's... thing on the shoulder. But well, those were early examples, thanks to the fact they both were in KoF94... but then they were harmlessly re-implanted in KoF98. And 2002. And Capcom VS SNK, except Battler is nowhere to be seen in the last two.
** More recent example: K'. May not carry this illness at first, but you may notice that he wears a red glove on one of his hands. Look closer and you'll never figure out on which exactly.
