The Punisher is a 1990 video game which stars the Marvel Comics anti-hero, the Punisher. It is one of the few NES rail shooters. In the same year, there was also The Punisher computer game for Amiga and DOS systems, unrelated to this one and released by MicroProse. The player controls the Punisher character from an over-the-shoulder third-person perspective through various New York City locations, shooting thugs and battling supervillains. (wikipedia.org)
