- Playthrough of the Punisher for NES! I played this a while back but didn't make it through. Finally this stream, I finished the game! This game is a mixed bag, there are things I like about it but also things I don't like. What do YOU think of it?

Mike Matei is one of the most genuine streamers that I know of;
he clearly has a great passion for video games.

"FUCK FUCK, OH WHAT?! THEY GAVE IT TO ME AN THEN DIDNT GIVE IT TO ME?! THE FUCK IS THAT SHIT?! Now thats NES BULLSHIT IF I EVER SAW IT!!" -Mike Matei 2023
I owned this game as a kid too. I gotta say, I loved it, even though I usually died at the Jigsaw fight. I would keep playing it because it felt so good to shoot that machine gun, I used to just sit on that stage select screen and shoot at the brick wall background sometimes, that's how much I liked it. I haven't played it in probably 25 years, but I remember it being a very hard game. The cursor that moves your guns crosshairs takes an ice age to move across the screen, and also your character (The Punisher) is so big and slow, it's almost impossible not to get hit by enemy bullets.
One other thing I noticed just now, game was made by "Beam Software". You know what other LJN published game Beam Software made? The NES Back to the Future (another game I owned as a kid). This Punisher game is much better.
Watching this again, for a NES game... 8-bit... The colours, sprites and the destructible backgrounds are amazing for the time
Eveyone wants to crap on this game. But for the nes this game had destructible backgrounds, stayed true to the punisher character and had shooting and melee combat. Great game. And then for mike to crap on it saying its only moving to the right them play a shmup is max kek.
It's mainly the lack of music that hurts it. It's not too bad game overall. It's nice that the NES had a decent over-the-shoulder third-person perspective title.
so what!?The game's awful
I had this game when I was a kid. I had fun playing it. It's not THAT bad of a game, especially compared to just LJN games.
Nightmare on Elm Street is good.
@@mikematei yo mr huge load doggystyle, after reading James autobiography, I’m dying to know: did you ever witness any of James’ autistic retard hissyfits ? Like pissing his pants and falling in the floor?
Bravo
This is a secret to everybody: Easter Egg - After beating the game, when you see the Punisher's final line - "Well, my job's finished..." - hold Up, B, and Select simultaneously to see the Punisher's face.
It is dangerous to go alone
Over here at Ed's bar we have agreed that Mike have never been so bored in a stream.
I have never played The Punisher for the NES. But it does remind me a lot of Dynamite Duke for the Genesis, which is basically the same concept.
The best Punisher game is the Capcom arcade beat em up. Also on the Genesis too. But it's not as good as the arcade game.
It reminds me a little bit of "Wild Guns" for the SNES.
i always forget about that punisher beat em up. I need to stream that someday.
got that right 👍
This is a classic for sure. My parents rented this a few times for me as a kid.
arcade is
'the answer my friend is blowing in the wind, the answer is Blowing in the wind..'
I genuinely think this game is great. Always have. The Punisher was one of the comic books I learned to read on.
Last time I played this, I got to the last level but didn't make it to Kingpin. You gotta get the armor pickups and as many bonus lives as you can get.
It wasn't until AVGN that LJN got its reputation. That rainbow logo was completely irrelevant to me until I was like 25 years old.
I like this game, Maximum Carnage, WWF Raw, A Nightmare On Elm Street.
It worked as a recurring villain for AVGN but, obviously, the lack of quality of LJN was over stated for comedy purposes.
Well, it was also said on the show, I forget what episode that LJN only published them.
Really, it's the various developers faults. This game was Beam Software, Friday the 13th is Atlus and so on.
It was just a common trait that many games that LJN published were poor, so there is truth to it.
But obviously some of the games are good, like Nightmare on Elm Street. And this game is fine.
@@mikematei this is true. And I enjoyed all the AVGN episodes, too.
See you in the next one! Love the channel, Mike! Thanks for the reply!
Ljn sucked since day one in my book.bad memories as a kid,theres no excuse for those fuckfarts.just trash
@@andrecondesso8057 if playing video games was bad memories then you must have had it pretty good.
I played the crap out of Maximum Carnage and WWF Raw with friends as a kid. Good memories.
There was a guy on TH-cam, I think he quit now but, he called himself the LJN Defender. I think he did good work for the most part. Other than rambling on and on at the end, pretty good.
LJN was truly just hit and miss like most developers. Capcom and Konami were generally good, but no one has a perfect record.
Laundry Time with Old Man Matei
Aah missed this one gonna catch up tonight though.
I used to see this advertised on comic books, but, never played it.
I used to play the Genesis version, completely different. I don't think I'd have the patience for this one, but you stuck through it. Great work Mike! Always a pleasure watching your videos.
For LJN, its uh, not terrible. Needs better music and sound effects.

but it's kinda boring anyways,the sounds wont do it
This game is heavily based on an arcade game called Dynamite Duke.
With all its shortcomings, I still loved this game as a kid.
If you wanna cross off another NES game, one that is not too difficult but still fun and challenging; Kid Niki Radical Ninja
I don't know why I waited so long to check Matei out... I never watched LPs or streamers in general until recently. All have been pretty bland and way too tame... they are all just too young and limp wristed, afraid of offending everyone. After just 10 minutes of this, I feel at home.
i like how one of the bad guys slides across the screen on his face when you shoot him
2:03:41 Alberto Gonzáles, Spanish composer. Also worked on games for Tintin and Asterix
This is pretty cool as an arcade railgun but the lack of music obviously sucks
You went into the world of The Punisher, now you must play Dynamite DooOOOOoooOK! "spooky ghost voice telling you to play Dynamite Duke on Sega Genesis"
58:15 - Totally Hair Barbie must be like a blonde Chewbacca.
We rented The Punisher when I was a kid. My brother and I laughed when we shot the saxophone player
Reminds me of Dick Tracy on Genesis, any plans Mike😉?
I played that a while ago th-cam.com/video/a7E6kcEiL7s/w-d-xo.html
3:04:29 Vintage Mike Matei
Roger Rabbit?
@@mikematei You going off on the boss after beating him is vintage Mike Matei.
It’s wild how awesome the capcom arcade game was relative to this. Also I bought a mister and am waiting for it to get here! Pretty jazzed up.
They are completely different games. Not really comparable in any way. Only similarity is the title and character.
I enjoy all The Punisher games I've played. NES, Arcade/SG, PS2/Xbox.
Hope you have fun with your Mister!
Wow i didnt know this game existed awesome video mike
Imagine this game if instead of just that lone saxophone player, there would be more civilians roaming around that you had to not shoot in order not to lose energy. 🤣
Still a bit of a weird game in that it feels like it would be perfect for the Zapper, but it isn't compatible with that. It is only to be played with the NES controller.
Hey, Mike. I don’t know if you’ll see this. I just wanted to say I’ve been a fan since 2009 (of you, AVGN, etc.). Thank you for all the laughs over the years. I love your streams (I rarely ever use Twitch, but watch here on TH-cam often). Keep it up, cheers and brown bricks!
I honestly love that game. It was amazing when I finished at that time :)
I think everyone actually thinks LJN is a bad game developer. They are in fact, a bad game publisher. Literally an offshoot of Acclaim to get around the X games per year rule Nintendo had back in the day. Yet, some of the games they had weren't absolute trash. Some....
Yeah this game is Beam Software. There's an AVGN video that talks about how LJN was only the publisher.
dig this game. dig rail shooters in general...there aren't many on the NES. mechanized attack, operation wolf, the untouchables. this one's got cool box art, got it in my CIB collection
I should try untouchables and operation wolf. I wonder if they are better than this one
@@mikematei try Inindo way of the Ninja (SNES)ure a ninja should like it
@@mikematei untouchables is really cool. so is operation wolf. tho the craziest rail shooter in my opinion goes to shiens revenge for SNES. super tough game!!!!! I was able to finish it.
Imagine buying this piece of shit back in the day based on a cover. I guess i dodged a bullet
The Punisher Game was Good on the NES Nice Live Stream Mike Great Job.
Pretty sure they're using this game as a training sim. for police academies.
Ljn cops will never score
Hey Mike,
I had just started the XenoCrisis video on your Twitch page and you were mentioning doing a co-op game with James at some point, so I thought I'd toss a few suggestions. SmashTV is really great in co-op. The snes version is good but the one on the 360 is a proper arcade port with arcade difficulty. The snes one is a bit easier. If you were able to get an arcade emulator working with 2 players then a fun arcade game is SilkWorm. I know it's on nes, but the nes port is rather poor by comparison. Incase you don't remember off hand, SilkWorm is a side scrolling shmup and with 2 players, one player controls a jeep on the ground and the other player is in an apache gunship. It's a really neat concept that you don't see all that often in 2 player shmups. Usually both players are in identical aircraft. Those are good too though, and speaking of; Darius Twin is a nice example of that on snes. My brother and I used to play all these games when we were kids, so I'm very familiar with the co-op experience in all of these. Going back to Darius Twin these days though, I'm surprised that we were able to make it very far because that game is mercilessly difficult. Although you are quite good at those games, so perhaps Darius Twin would be a cakewalk for you. One last suggestion just because it's totally out of left field. The original xbox version of Doom 3 has a co-op version of the campaign. You'd need to have two discs, two consoles and tv's and play it with a LAN connection, but it would be a weird and interesting thing if you could swing it.
Reminiscent of Dynamite Duke (1989) the way a foe will get up close and trade punches with the player character.
Never played it, but what's crazy about this is that there is Karnov music while playing The Punisher. So weird lol
thanks for that stream Mike, this game could have been a classic with some music, I don't understand why they couldn' fit music in it
ŹAssss
Ljn , thats why.
Mike Always keep up the Good Work on your Live Streams you are the Best TH-camr Live Stream Keep doing a Good Job.
Grew up with this also Mike.. I like this game.. I have to use the genie tho to beat it.. man it's tough
Should check out some of the very early spiderman games
Especially lethal foes
Some mixed things but can be fun 😁
Mike I’ve been waiting at Ed’s Bar behind the trash cans for 2 days where are you?
Its the other Eds Bar
Damn it I’m always behind the wrong dumpsters. 😂 love the channel cheers
43:48 Double Dragon
1:22:28 It actually does something, Mike: The pills fuck you up mentally even more
Wait , 3rd person shooter like this on the nes :0 man I wish operation Wolf on the NES was that way ….
The Punisher is the best Ljn game but you should do a review on the Punisher on PS2 cause that was the best one.
Mine you should definitely play through the Punisher arcade game.
See how far you can get with 1 coin!
This was fun to watch live on Twitch. That boss music is atrocious - like nails on a chalkboard. Later. -Eeziss aka kingbooomer
Knowing how sensitive Nintendo was at the time, it’s crazy how they published a game where you literally gun people down in the streets.
Any plans for Xeno Crisis on Hard Mode? It’s a nightmare.
Good job Mike.
1:21:50
profound Mike lore
Perfect play the ps2 version next that game is the goat.
Hey Mike, never catch you on Twitch unfortunately, I’d love to be able to participate in a livestream chat but just haven’t gotten into following Twitch yet. Have you ever tried Alien Soldier for Megadrive tho? Not everyone’s cup of tea and I can only get like halfway through but it isn’t that hard to get used to and the gameplay as well as graphics are pretty awesome.
If you have tried would love to know your thoughts, tough as balls, maybe up your alley lol.
This is actually a good NES game
I remember renting this as a kid, from what I remember I liked it, I liked The Punisher on PS2 much better.
Yeah, but there's no comparison. Obviously, a game 15 years newer will be better. There's no comparison with the Genesis or Arcade game with the same name either. They are all completely different games featuring the same character.
Mike matei, have u heard of gal guardians. It’s like castlevania
good music tho I presume
Good day Mike!
The punisher ! I remember he was epic.. I wish the comic boos industry was as good as it was before now all these lame “ Graphic novels “ don’t have that special aura lols
Sargento makes the best cheddar cheese
Nice
Such a good game
I heard, you were the one writing for the ''Angry'' nerd! I'm right? (Hello by the way) :)
love this game!
Is that music C64 music?
Hey Mike..play The Punisher on Sega Genesis
Played the arcade game not this was this better
Another great ljn game
Yeah yeah sure sure.this game suck ass!!
29:54 Song is from Getsu Fūma Den, Famicom, Konami. Awesome game. Never released in USA, but there are fan translations. Definitely worth your time to check out. Has a really cool vibe. There are first person dungeon maze sections that might drive you crazy. Most of the game is a platformer though. Edit: 2:29:21 this song is also from Getsu Fuma Den I'm pretty sure.
Love your content man, love form India!
Play Burning Rangers!
Good luck
...LJN really !?
Developed by Beam Software.
I'm not internet savvy, and quite frankly am kinda dumb, how and when can I watch a live stream ?
I stream here
m.twitch.tv/mikemateilive
If you read my profile there it explains most of it.
@@mikematei replying to me is the equivalent of David Letterman replying to Mike Matei on air
Seemed like a decent game aside from the horrible sound design. it's cool to see the good LJN games.
Someone should do a hack with more music
Idont see good LJN games anywhere i look..
The graphics are weird in this game!
The Punisher is Really Detailed and the Bosses Look Like Bad MS Paint Renditions Of The Source Material!
LJN... Nothing more needs to be said
Beam Software
Absolutely
Play in 22
👍👍
I bet Mike won't play the PS2 version
Too modern 😉
I played some of the PS2 version on stream already. I thought it was cool. I'd like to play more of it someday. @drakorex1 @pvsweetypie

TERMINATED! Congratulations on finishing The Punisher for the NES, Mike :).
While I enjoy this game, its major flaws are the extremely repetitive stages and lack of music. Dynamite Duke for the Sega Genesis does a much better job, as it's extremely short, but sweet!
Beam Software definitely copied elements from that game, which drew inspiration from arcade games such as Operation Wolf and Punch-Out!! (for the up close boss battles).
game doesn't look that bad really
The PS2 Punisher game is WAY better
Obviously. That game is 15 years newer and on superior hardware.
1ST!!!!!
We love Mike.
hello mr mike matei
do you play banjo kazooie and banjo tooie？
i wish you play banjo kazooie and banjo tooie
thank you
Normally I try leave to leave healthier comments in your chat because I know your brain could use a break from some of the dribble you have to read during streams. But this stream I wasn't feeling great so I listened in, fantastic stream. Also wanted to recommend a new bio pic called Tetris (2023) for both you and Erin. It's about the entire journey this guy went on to get the licensing rights for Tetris to be sold worldwide and it's absolutely bonkers watching him have to deal with the Soviet Union at that collapse of the communist party. I don't want to tell details but it's an amazing true story about a hellish journey to get the game sold. If you don't end up liking it feel free to tell me off during stream but you'd be doing a dis-service to yourself if you didn't watch this adventure in gaming history.
Love you~
You could do so much with the Punisher, but they made a mobile game out of it. Whatever, I love this game.
