About this product

Product Information

As the title implies, this game puts you in the role of a paperboy, peddling your bike down the street, delivering newspapers. While on your route, you must dodge traffic, tornadoes, break dancers, overhanging trees, vicious dogs, and other obstacles. As you steer your bike along the road, your primary goal is to throw the newspapers in the paperboxes of the subscribers. Also, you can earn extra points by throwing the papers at enemies such as workmen and the Grim Reaper and by breaking out the windows of nonsubscribers. At the end of each delivery session, you enter a special bonus round called the Paperboy Training Course wherein you toss your papers at targets while avoiding obstacles.

this is a 80s classic, love it!
Paperboy is a cult classic from the arcade to the gameboy, its a must have for your 80s collection. I dig it, it makes it challenging from the high tech games we now have today.

Great Condition for used product.
Gameboy ADVANCED classic game of Paperboy. Not everybody has or still uses Gameboys but I love mine. It's a great way to kill time in the waiting room. Paperboy is a fun game. It's simple, unlike some of the more complex Zelda games that, if you don't get the original user's guide, you don't understand the rules.
