... what Salamander? Yet again! No more, ACE, no more!


This is really just a filler video. Since MAME doesn't want to co-operate, I went for the closest the X68000 version... which admittedly is a very nice emulator to use, and is almost the same as the arcade version. (A couple of the bosses are pansies in this version though.)
I don't know, I find Salamander and all it's abomination off-spring fairly interesting, each port has something completely different about it. (Be it completely re-worked bosses (Commodore 64 version), or just.. plain new stages and bosses (See NES and MSX version.)

Fun fact: The Final Boss actually killed me the first time I fought it. No joke. I was NOT expecting it to do what it did. (And I'm not talking about the Ultimate dick move they pull AFTER it.)

I do intend to record the MSX version of the game but thats mostly because its nothing like the Arcade version at all! Out of all the ports, its definitely the oddest (Yes, this takes the Spectrum version into account.), and it only shares a few things (Music and 3 of the bosses at most) with its bigger brother.

As I said, this is a filler video. Im actually uploading something completely different as we speak. Well not completely different.. but a different game at least, XD
