People said it was wrong because Quan Chi was supposed to have the amulet, yet somehow at the end of MK2 Shao Kahn had the amulet.
Anyways here is my interpretation of the story. In MK Mythologies, Sub-Zero actually snatched the fake amulet from Shinnok (since Quan Chi kept the original). At the end of the game Sub-Zero gives the fake amulet to Raiden. Now fast forward to MKSM/MK2, it shows that Shang Tsung manages to capture Raiden, its quite possible that the amulet was still in Raiden's possession and that Shang Tsung stripped it from Raiden and gave it to Shao Kahn, or that Shao Kahn stripped the amulet.
It would mean that Shao Kahn had the fake amulet. This actually makes sense and answers another question for us. In MK4 we knew that Shinnok had possession of the fake amulet again, now it appears that we know that Quan Chi took it from Shao Kahn after MK2 and gave it to Shinnok.

And a member (I'm sorry that I don't remember his username) said that Mileena's words "Quan Chi hasn't been here for ages." in MKA konquest meant that Quan chi got captured at some time and Shao Kahn stripped the amulet from his possession. He was wrong.
The word age means a hundred years, a time when Quan Chi didn't have any of the amulets; neither the real one, nor the fake one.

Thanks a lot. 
Oh, and. Another thing about the travel between Earthrealm and Outworld. Even both Shang Tsung and Quan Chi are free-roaming sorcerers, they travelled to Earthrealm then Outworld by was of a mystical portal known only to sorcrers and deities. What does that mean? The travel between Earthrealm and Outworld can only be made possible by an ancient portal or with the help of a mystical item (such as the Amulet of Power and the Eye of Chitian).

Anyways, as we all know, Quan Chi comes to Shao Kahn's arena at the end and picks up the Sacred Amulet from Shao Kahn's remains. Nearly everyone said that this makes no sense. Nearly everyone who said it, was wrong. It has been said nearly a hundred times that the portals between Earthrealm and Outworld are locked tight and they can only be unlocked by the unbalancing of the Furies which is through Mortal Kombat tournament which Shao Kahn didn't win. So, how did he unlock it? Of course, by using an ancient artifact that can open inter-realm gates: Shinnok's Amulet.
GENIUS! lol

No, wait. I have something to say about that. Shang Tsung can't get to Earth without the use of the amulet so he can't take the amulet AFTER opening the portal to Earthrealm.
Also, in that Fight Night chat, Ed Boon said that the amulet in MKSM is not the same with Quan Chi's.

Talk about late responses. But why cant Shang Tsung get to Earth without the use of the amulet? Many others have done so before, MK3's whole plot was about Shao Kahn gaining access to Earthrealm and invading. Quan Chi entered Earthrealm before MK1 to get Sub-Zero and Scorpion to retrieve Shinnok's amulet. Though it is non canonical and probably a null point now, MK2's comic book suggested that they could enter Earthrealm for their right to challenge Earth, just bringing this up more of a trivia than an actual point. Im just saying, there are probably other ways to gain access to Earthrealm than the amulet.

Hmm I actually see a few things wrong with the theory, that is if Im reading it correctly. One is, if Quan Chi got the amulet back after MK2, then how does Shao Kahn open the inter-realm gates, afterall, Quan Chi is in possession of the amulet now, not Shao Kahn. Two is, and Im assuming your talking about Shao Kahn opening the portal during MK3, MK3's storyline already explained how Shao Kahn gained access to Earthrealm, by means of Sindel being resurrected in Earthrealm, and that gave him the right to open the gates to reclaim his queen, while simultaneously invading at the same time.

Well,
Shang Tsung and Quan Chi used the help of an ancient portal to breach Earth in MKDA, didn't they? Why use a portal and bother to fight a replica of your worst enemy instead of simply teleporting?
Sindel's resurrection began even before MKM but it was complete in MK3 so only in MK3 Kahn was able to enter Earthrealm freely.
I actually talked about the attack on Shaolin Temple, not the Invasion Of Earthrealm.
For further assumption/explanations check my topic in Mortal Kombat General Discussion. I rewrote the theory and involved time-travel in it.
