They're kinda all zombies owned by Quan Chi now. Unless you want a whole zombie cast to replace old Zombie Liu Kang, I'm having trouble seeing how they're going to make it work.Heck, I'm still trying to work how Frost will work with her little cameos in 9, with Sub-Zero no longer being around.
To my knowledge, Armageddon and Advance were the only MK games on Nintendo systems after MK4. Don't hold your breath for any sort of Nintendo console release.
MKDA and MKD got Gamecube versions as well, but if they did it how Boon thought, the new MK will really be for the new consoles only, this is from 2012:"Boon told CVG that his Chicago studio has not yet begun work on the successor to the highly acclaimed 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot, and suggested that work on the game is earmarked for next generation systems."Just philosophically, I don't think we could take the approach of doing the same thing but adding new characters in our next Mortal Kombat game," he said."We definitely want to do something new with it, we feel we have to introduce something into the mix."But Boon believes that there is less opportunity to innovate if a sequel is published on the same console; An indication that the next Mortal Kombat game will arrive on hardware as yet revealed by Microsoft and Sony."If you introduce another edition of your game on the same console, you cannot provide a radically different experience," Boon said."I'm sure, if we were to do a new Mortal Kombat game on next generation systems, I think we would be able to provide dramatically different experiences.""
All I know is, WB games won't pressure NRS to get the game done quick. They'll do the same they did with MK 2011. They're gonna give the Dev Team as much time as possible.That's what made MK 2011 work and become successful, as for any guesses... I think a couple of the MK4 and onward chars are going to be salvaged... somewhat.
Since Killer Instinct is a thing again and Boon mentioned it multiple times recently, i guess that there could be a KI guest character in the x-bone version. Jago or Fulgore would be super fitting
If a KI character is included, I hope its Orchid, we could use a pretty woman in the game besides Smoke.

Kinda hope this one's all flashy like the new KI, 'n not boring and depressing as hell as in the last game.
