Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
This is basically Jonathan's version of a shield. The only differences seem to be that it doesn't block as much, can't be used while moving and it can't reflect projectiles. In return, however, it does seem to reduce damage from many more non-projectile attacks than those that shields do.
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
Shanoa can guard attacks using the Scutum Glyphs. However, she does not seem to wield the shield in front while guarding, but instead, it magically hovers above her head.
