This teeny-tiny article needs some work. You can help us by expanding it.

The Punisher is a beat-'em-up game for the Sega Mega Drive, based on the comic book series with the same name. It is a port of an earlier arcade game by Capcom, and stars The Punisher (player 1) and Nick Fury (player 2) attempting to defeat The Kingpin (also the antagonist of Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin).

The Punisher is one of the few examples of Capcom bringing one of their many arcade games to the Mega Drive and not to the Super Nintendo.

Several heavy cuts had to be made to fit the game onto the (still generous) 16Megabit cartridge, with most sprites and background redrawn. The game is complete however.
