You can grind and squeal your brakes all you want, but you cannot come to a complete stop and must always keep moving ahead. You can go left and right, speed up by pressing Up, and brake by pressing Down. Logically, you want to deliver papers to the subscribers and ignore the non-subscribers. The remaining spaces on the map are filled in with red houses representing non-subscribers. One at a time, blue homes will appear in random locations on the left side of the street. When you start the game you see an overhead map of the street. Get used to this street because you will see it a lot. You win the game if you survive a week’s worth of newspaper delivery. There is only one level in the game but you repeat it for every day of the week, which makes for seven levels in total.

The object of the game is to deliver newspapers to a series of homes on a two-block street using his trusty bicycle to ensure the deliveries are made in time. In Paperboy, you play the role of a young boy making the rounds on a daily paper route. There have also been several re-releases of the original Paperboy on systems such as the Game Boy Color, Playstation 2, Xbox 360, and mobile. The second is the Nintendo 64 game also called Paperboy. The first is the aptly named Paperboy 2 which debuted in 1991 on home consoles including the NES. The NES port of Paperboy was released in November 1988 and published by Mindscape. The game was ported to almost twenty different computers, home consoles, and handhelds. The arcade game is housed in an upright cabinet that features a set of handlebars used to control the game. It was both developed and published by Atari Games. Paperboy was released in the arcades in 1985. It is still a popular title today and a fun game to pick up and play anytime. It may not be the definitive version of the game, but I do think that the game is best known on the NES. These types of ports tend to have varying quality, but I see Paperboy on NES as a well done game. Today we have another arcade conversion on the NES. To Beat: Complete Sunday to reach the ending The newspaper title screen was a great choice!
