Candidates
Cabal (NES/Arcade)
Dynamite Duke (Genesis/Arcade)
Nam 75 (Neo Geo)
The Punisher (NES)
?The Punisher? (Gameboy B+W)?
Wild Guns (SNES)

Or any I missed.

Tough choice, but I'd go with Wild Guns, closely followed by Nam 75. Wild Guns has a great deal of challenge and variety of power ups and attacks.

I thought S&P is more along the lines of Space Harrier or Panzer Dragoon.

THat is, a forward scrolling behind the back shooter.

THen again, I've never played S&P, so who knows?

I'm thinking more along the lines of 2D.

Sin and Punishment kicks ass. It also has many contra elements.
