  Played this game the whole summer in 1985 & 86 at Adventure Island in Tampa. Best part of the arcade game was smashing the windows of non customers and the race at the end of each level!

  I absolutely LOVED this game growing up in the 1980s. The amount of money I (my parent’s 😂) must have pumped into those cabinets. Wherever an arcade had Paperboy it was always my go to.

  What was in the paper that the Grim Reaper had to stop it from getting out? 😂😂😂

  I’ve felt like painting my house black and putting tombstones in my front yard over a missing paper from my paperboy.

  The many hours I put into Paperboy from the arcade to the Nintendo. I remember the first time I finally aced the obstacles course. I jumped up and down so hard in the arcade. People applauded me.

  Brings back memories of the spectrum, ST and Amiga versions. Unfortunately I don’t wasn’t old enough to be allowed to venture to the local arcade so I missed out on the arcade version.

  I remember saving 75$ of my paper route money to buy the NES cartridge of this game. The situational irony was lost on me.

  Played it when it first came out in Butlins Skegness in 1984 and the music and game have been imprinted in my brain ever since, happy memories!!!

  I absolutely loved Video Game Arcades, &nbsp;and would spend all my money playing them.<br>My parents had it with me early on, saying what a &apos;waste of money&apos; those games were, &nbsp;but they got me an Atari 2600 so that was really nice of them.
