Actual Entry (non editable)
Salamander 2 (c) 1996 Konami. A one or two player shoot-em-up released ten years after the game it sequels, Salamander 2 remains faithful to the superb 1986 original; retaining both the organic look and feel of the graphics, as well as the horizontal and vertically scrolling levels. While the game doesn't break any new ground gameplay-wise, and is little more than a retread of (and tribute to) the original game, what it does it does very well; and the graphics in particular are nothing short of stunning. - TECHNICAL - Konami GX Hardware Main CPU : Motorola 68EC020 Sound CPU : Motorola 68000 Sound Chips : (2x) K054539 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 3 - TRIVIA - Salamander 2 was released in January 1996. Note : The kanji on the title screen actually reads 'Sa Ra Man Da', meaning 'Sand Gauze Wide Snake'. This is an example of 'ateji', where Japanese artists use the phonetic value of a character to allow the title to be written with kanji (often choosing those that fit the game; the 4th kanji here means snake).
