Check's MKA goodness - http://testyourmight.com/threads/air-cancel-otg-corner-relaunch-list-for-mka.18764/
I was being nostalgic watching combo and match videos of MKD and MKA and stumbled on a search result on Google that mentioned OpenSpy... an alternative to GameSpy which we all know is shut down. They said that several games (PS2) that had previous online funcitonality through GameSpy will work through their servers. There was no mention of MKD or MKA to be working there as they use a GameSpy ID which is created in the game once connected.
I searched a bit more and found a Facebook page of someone looking to play MKD online matches from 2012-2014... But there was no mention of how to do it. Looking through more search results, I found this website --> http://www.bobzent.info/ps2.php which says that MKD and MKA work using their server... So I gave it a try. Using my PS2 slim and the MKD disc (from MK Online -> Create or Modify network settings), I put in the manual DNS address from that website and the connection tested successfully.
I then went back into the game (MKD) and opened MK Online from the menu and selected the network setting I just created and IT WORKED
I was back in the MKD lobby for the first time since 2006... holy shit! There was nobody online, of course, so I had no way to test if a match was possible, but HOLY SHIT! lol
@THTB @R.E.O. @General M2Dave @Krayzie @DanCock and I can't think of anyone else still active who I played with...
My only working PS2 is a slim that lightly scratches my games as I play them... so I have to fix it or get a new PS2. If this truly works, then I am very excited about this! Maybe I'll get the chance to play MKA online with people as I skipped that game for UMK3 when it came out for XBLA.
EDIT: Apparently this same method was used way back in 2012 here --> http://www.designsys.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8543 ... but the info there is old.
