Paperboy

"It's fun all the way!"

The original Paperboy is one of the most fun and best NES games ever made, in my opinion, of course. It is the first time we experience the fun of riding a bike down the road, avoiding natural disasters, throwing newspapers into the correct mail boxes, and playing incredible bonus rounds.

The standard game play is super fun. You are your town's paperboy and must deliver newspapers to a selected amount of houses in the neighborhood. However, you must do it 6 days a week, and you are limited the number of papers you get. Not only is this story and game play fun and effective on gamers, but it will keep you playing for hours and get you addicted.

Also added as a gun feature is the bonus stage at the end of every day. Not only are they fun and challenging, but you get a nice reward for beating it.

The game is an all out challenge throughout, and I will certainly recommend to any gamer; ranging from the RPG fans to the sports fans.

If you still have your NES, or you're looking into buying the Tri Star 64, this is a game you cannot afford to miss!
