Mortal Kombat 4
Game Boy Color · 1997
About this game
Mortal Kombat 4 is a 1 vs 1 fighting game, similar to the other Mortal Kombat games , but this is the first game in the series to use 3D character models.
The player can choose from 15 different fighters at the start (and several unlockables later on).

Many fighters from earlier games in the series make a comeback (like Scorpion, Sub Zero, Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, or Johnny Cage) while other new fighters join in, like Shinnok (who is the main antagonist in this game), Fujin, Jarek, and Kai.
Goro also returns as a sub-boss.
Gameplay is very typical for a Mortal Kombat game, but has several new features - for example, characters can use weapons in a fight (not only as a special move) or avoid attacks in the 3D environment.
About Game Boy Color
The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.
Gamevaro tracks Mortal Kombat 4 for Game Boy Color with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Mortal Kombat 4 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBC release dates back to 1997.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Mortal Kombat 4 has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
