Mean Machines
This conversion captures all the humour, originality and playability of the arcade machine. It seems very straightforward at first, but once mad dogs, nutty street dancers, runaway tyres and even rogue drivers enter the fray, things start getting very tough indeed. It's great fun trying to get all the papers in the mailboxes, but my favourite part of the game is causing as much damage to non-subscribers' properties as possible! With its fantastic graphics and faithful arcade tunes, Paperboy should find a place in any arcade fan's cartridge collection.

Paper Boy reblete o duro dia-a-dia de um entregador de jornais. Montado em uma veloz bicicleta, ele deve entregar os jornais nas casas e não pode errar o alvo - que serão sempre as caixas de correio ou os capachos nas portas das casas.

Power Play
Nachdem die Sega-Programmierer anscheinend vergessen haben, welche technischen Fähigkeiten ihr eigenes 8-Bit-System bietet, hält wenigstens U.S. Gold die Fahne der Master-System-Besitzer hoch. Die Umsetzung des Arcade-Klassikers "Paperboy" ist den Engländern ordentlich gelungen. Zwar ruckt das Scrolling etwas, wenn mehrere Objekte auf dem Bildschirm umherflitzen, doch kommt dies relativ selten vor. Spielerisch hat sich gegenüber dem Original so gut wie nichts geändert. Das Spielprinzip ist halt nicht mehr das Allerfrischeste.
