Before Capcom released their first Marvel fighting game in 1994, they released a side-scrolling beat ‘em up game in 1993 that started it all: The Punisher arcade game! While that momentous game has lived in the shadows of obscurity for many years now, Hasbro is stepping in to celebrate the inaugural Marvel x Capcom collaboration: the GamerVerse Marvel Legends Punisher & Nick Fury figures pack is now up for order!

Waltzing around in Metro City and kicking hoodlum ass with Guy in Final Fight was one of my favorite arcade pastimes as a youngin, so Capcom immediately had my attention when they released The Punisher in arcades a few years after Final Fight.
The Punisher game didn’t transition splendidly to the SEGA Genesis and has somewhat fallen out of the mainstream in the last 3 decades, but my ears still perked up the moment Hasbro announced this two-pack based on the classic video game.

After getting so many Nick Fury figures in black and dark blue, it’s really quite refreshing to get the sometimes-Director of SHIELD in more earthy colored, army-looking attire. I’m also a big fan of blue-grey Punisher, matching how he looked in the old video games and classic comic books.





Has Hasbro impressed you enough with this release to earn your dollars, Marvel collectors?
