Life force arcade merged or seperatE? Are there enough changes to warrent that? I think life force, since its not that much different, shoudl be kept in this article, to keep in context. -- Larsinio 19:28, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
Merge performed as one game (Life Force) is simply an alteration to the other (Salamander). Since Salamander was released first, Life Force was merged here. KyuuA4 ( talk) 08:29, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

This is minute. In the NES version, Intruder's arms are not flaming — they're just chains of circles that imply metal machinery. It's pretty clear since the game does such a good job representing fire earlier in that level and in level 3. If it's not different in any of the other versions, that detail needs to go.
The levels and bosses in the arcade version are different from those in the NES/Famicom ports. The arcade levels and bosses are identical to the arcade version of Salamander other than graphical changes. The NES/Famicom games are more a remix and have altered levels, new levels, and new bosses. This is why the Levels and Bosses section belongs under the NES port section.

Image:Salamander 03.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Isn't that another game? 2fort5r ( talk) 02:56, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

This page should be merged into Salamander (arcade game), as its just covering a port which is almost EXACTLY the same, except for plot. -- larsinio 20:34, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Is there a reliable source that states the European version was released as "Life Force: Salamander"? I'm from the UK and I played this game in a number of arcades in the late '80s and early '90s and it was simply called "Salamander" (like the Japanese version). I also owned the the C64 port (on cassette!), which was also called simply called "Salamander". 86.157.247.6 ( talk) 11:22, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
Further to this, the Development section correctly states that the game was released in Europe with the same title as the Japanese version and both versions are almost identical (which contradicts the incorrect title given in the lede). I shall correct the lede to make the article consistent. 86.157.247.6 ( talk) 11:27, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
