MiSTer FPGA – The Punisher (パニッシャー) / Capcom CPS-1.5 Arcade

Today is my first time playing The Punisher, and WOW is this beat-em-up great! You would never see something like this from Marvel nowadays. Packed to the brim with over-the-top violence and weapons flying everywhere.. this game is relentlessly awesome. Things progress in a linear fashion, but you never feel as if the situations you get in are too cheap. There always seems to be a strategy. Combos flow naturally with great art style and little bits of flair that really make it stand out. I’m looking forward to re-visiting this in the future with a second player!
