 * According to former Texas Instruments employee Bill Barneia, "''Super''" was added to the title of the TI-99/4A version of Demon Attack for Marketing reasons. It was believed that the term "Super" in the title would make the game appear to be a sequel to the original Atari 2600 version. This is supported by the fact that the title screen lacks "Super" in the title, simply displaying "Demon Attack." Secondly, a Texas Instruments product catalog shows a manual cover of the game labeled only as "Demon Attack" without the proceeding "Super," although it is unknown if any the cartridges with "Demon Attack" manuals actually were released to the public. <ref>{{cite web|title=TI Video Game House: Super Demon Attack|url=https://www.videogamehouse.net/superdemon.html}}</ref> <ref>{{cite web|title=Digital Press: (Super) Demon Attack|url=http://www.digitpress.com/eastereggs/tidemonattack.htm}}</ref>

 * In a way, Super Demon Attack can be viewed as an improvement over the Atari 2600 version. Graphically, the TI-99/4A version is much improved. Some of the demons were made to look like Medusas, others like dragons and others like flying skulls with wings. The demons attack only in groups of two and behave very differently than in other versions of the game. Further, the cannon looks more like a vehicle than in other ports of the game, with visibly turning wheels on it as it moves. <ref>{{cite web|title=Videogame Wikia: Demon Attack|url=http://videogame-database.wikia.com/wiki/Demon_Attack}}</ref>
