Okay, Paperboy brought back some serious nostalgia, but yikes, the controls haven't aged well. Delivering papers sounds easy, but throw in crazy obstacles and those super-precise throws? Good luck keeping subscribers happy. It was a fun trip down memory lane, but it's definitely showing its age.

Society tells me I should like Paperboy. I feel nothing for Paperboy.

Competent port of the arcade original.

Convinced me it would be fun to have a paper route. Jokes on them, that paper route bought me a PS2.

The cheery music, simple and unique concept, and the absurd antics that happen while you play make this an entertaining experience that is still very playable today.

The NES port of Paperboy is probably not the best way to experience this game but I do hold a ton of nostalgia for it. Owned it growing up, played it all the time. Always used to think that the breakdancer was actually pulling out a wedgie.
