NES Longplay [220] Paperboy 

At the age of 46, I'm starting to wonder if a day will ever go by for the rest of my life in which this tune doesn't go through my head at least once.

Don't you hate it when you're delivering papers to your customers and then the fucking grim reaper tries to stop you dead in your tracks? I always found that part funny, but damn, this game was hard af, i never got passed Monday without fucking up too much lol

this game delivers.

I remember playing this game when I was 10 , it was so tense trying to finish the week without dying >.

I remember playing this game for the first time. I laughed my ass off every time I got hit. I thought it was so funny, I think I was TRYING to get hit! 😂

...not one, but TWO fucking grim reapers living in the same neighborhood... and a tornado... gimme the house free, I won't take it... not even with a lifetime subscription (no pun intended)

This game was so hard as a kid

My friends and I would always laugh whenever the grim reaper is chasing us.

Paperboy for smash

This was the first game that gave me real gamer rage..

The tune is unforgettable.

As a child I barely got to Tuesday but 15 years later I've finally played it again and went straight to the end of it. Proud.

60 thousand bucks for being a paperboy for a week? I'd take that job....

Like anyone who played this game didn't throw through the windows just for the heck of it

I feel like the graves in the lawns of the red houses are the graves of previous paperboys. Dark

who retires from their job after only seven days?

I remember playing this and laughing my ass off crashing into tires

Im 7 years old again......... thank you. :_)

Rarely could I get past Monday. lol

3:10 As a kid, and even now at 27. I always yell the same thing when she appears. "KNIFE LADY!!"

I never could finish this game because i would always hit everybody with the paper including the break dancing kid the Grim Reaper the man using the Jack Hammer I used to hit anything moving to make them stop LMAO!

this game is hilarious. i played it over and over when i got it, what's up with the grim reaper and the guy breakdancing lol. oh and the random tire...so many weird things on this game that make me laugh

This game is extremely primitive in so many ways, but yet it is a true classic.

I love how they took the break dancer from the arcade version and turned it into that looks like he's struggling to put his pants on upsidedown.

There's just something about the NES version of this game, even though there are more arcade accurate versions of this game out there, the NES version is easily my favorite

It's honestly incredible how good this guy is at classic games cuz of how hard they really were back then.

Oh god the music takes me right back lol

Glad to finally see this one go up. This was one of our family's all time favourite NES games and one we could never beat. Glad to see someone showing us how it's done... and with reckless abandon no less.

That's the most densely populated footpath I've ever seen. Good aim on those papers and great playthrough.

* Hard Sniff * Ahhhhh smells like my childhood in here.... I love it here lol One of my favorite Nintendo game, duck hunt, and relay races with the stepping mat to make your team go faster and jump hurdles lol

I used to hit the cobblestone. I was the shit at this game..

Gee, it sure is nice how the neighbors paint their houses to say "Deliver a newspaper here" or "Don't deliver papers here". Who does that?

My window got crashed and got a Nintendo Power. I said 'FUCK YEAH!!!'

I love this game!! Although, I never tried to get a perfect score, I used to just throw papers at stuff to see what I could knock down and/or break xD! Nice job!

This seems to be the only neighborhood that doesn't need a paperboy. There's a bundle of papers in every other driveway already

As a kid this was realistic and you can't tell me otherwise

So many memories, I liked destroying things though, and I was never any good at it. But fun none the less.

Whoa, a run where you did every day without losing a subscriber? You must be a Papergod.

I miss my childhood. What a great game this was.

Still better than Call of Duty..

So strange to see nothing being broken. My friends and I always used to go for maximum carnage, especially for non-subscribers' windows and the breakdancer's crotch. Good times...

This is the one game I wanted so badly and never got to own. It was always sold out in stores and backordered for months. Always reserved for weeks on end to rent at video stores, too. You can imagine my cheese face when I discovered emulators as an adult.

who the fuck waits in bleachers to cheer the paperboy upon finishing his route?

I'm 42. I looked for it because I always had this song in my head. I miss playing it. 😢

damn i could never play paperboy this good, you are a pro

Paperboy actually started a Facebook (paperboy news). He's doing it on there now lol

3:00 paperboy agains a tornado lol

Always loved the packed stadium at the end cheering him on. One of the guys also doesn't seem to have a head.

I just playing that game 30 Minutes ago 😆

wow this guy is good, I don't think a made it pass Friday the damn dog or stupid tornado will always get me lol

I remember my father turning up the volume everytime i was about to throw a newspaper through a window XD. Oh, the good old days

Petunia the skunk's Favorite job :) Man i miss playing paperboy on my fake psp red tho ;)

After all these years, I still remembered the tune. Good times!

Just bought this game. Loved it. Never beat it like most. Looking forward to having better luck this time at 43!

6 years old, i threw papers everywhere

3:10 I remember that was the obstacle that scared me the most haha I was yelling "run, run, run!" 😰 What beautiful memories ❤🥰

funny how they got a bunch of bullshyt comin out of nowhere

I never understand why this game never came out for the atari 7800 or the atari 5200 or the atari 400 & 800 or the atari xe,WHAT A BIG SHAME from atari,(considering it did averagely came out on other systems) Yes it did came out on the atari st and atari lynx but it should,ve to those 8bit systems, But i guess atari saw no longer business into their own atari 8bit lineup of systems to make money off it so instead they let bleeding their own consoles dead and moved on as a thirt party developer,despite they did came back with their ill fated atari jaguar,but still,,,

And I still somehow find this game trippy as fuck 😄 I could never forget the music and all the crazy shit that goes on the route.

I find it a little sad that this game is so short, since it's so fun.

For once, I thought Paperboy (NES) shares the same universe as Papers, Please

I only played this game once when I was a little kid at a friend's house. We couldn't stop laughing at how ridiculous it was, with everything in that crazy neighborhood attempting to kill you as you're just trying to deliver some damn newspapers. Good times. I wanted my own copy *so* badly.

2:38 It always cracked me up when the delivery sound gets elongated.

The angry woman with the rolling pin has destroyed me more times than I care to admit.

3:10 as a child i thought that woman holding a rolling pin was actually an angry crazy old lady coming after me with a sharp kitchen knife . I thought she was going to stab and kill me and it always scared the shit out of me.

I used to have this on C64. Tough game.

The arcade had a legit bicycle handle on it lol

What are the fans at end of training course doing? They just sit there all day hoping paperboy will show up?

It must be a good neighborhood if Death lives there

Man we used to always knock over the trash cans and break the cobblestone. And of course break the occasional window. The jack hammer guy was humping the sidewalk, the old granny. Loved this game.

I remember breaking the windows got more points? And played on a small nintendo colorless

This is what happens when you disobey your city's bike law and ride on the sidewalk anyway.

Was I the only one who used to purposely crash into the random bs this game threw at you

I didn't know there was a training course all this time. I sucked 😆

I loved this game!

80’s video games didn’t give a shit about physics...lol

Paperboy retires in glory! Lol! The kid even has a damn cannon for an arm. Love how he toppled the 2 graves at one point. You don't subscribe, your graves are going down. Serves you right!

So glad newspaper subscribers paint their houses according to their subscription.

Ah yes the YMCA guys at the end. Also the house that buried their children in the front yard.

The music struggles to keep up as the week progresses. Hilarious!

Here the AVGN fans

Use to play the hell out of this game!! Always hated the random tornado.

I remember as a kid thinking that this was the boring game ever

Man! Watching this makes me miss my childhood with my sisters, playing Nintendo all night …lol

"Longplay" Also living on this street would be very interesting.

I'd hate to deliver papers in that neighborhood. Imagine what the mail carrier has to put up with!!! I don't even wanna know!!!

This might been my favorite NES game, pretty decent at it if tried, it was more fun to clobber everything with papers tho.

They need to add this to the switch nes online service

Never in my life have i ever saw a non subscriber turn into a subscriber.

We open up with the slowest news day ever.

Yo ni lunes puedo pasar 😂😂

Anyone here because of N2SC4R!?

0:39 paperboy got run over by a tire wheel hilarious

Ahhh yes. Meeting Tony Hawk, the grim reaper, the friendly neighbors wanting to kill me, a rolling tire, bikers, the breakdancer, the jerkoff man, a stupid dog, and more all in 1 day.

This game was soooo random but we played tf out of it 😂😂😂 grim reapers running out of front yards though?!

2020, still watching and a big fan of Paper boy since grade school. By the way all Filipino out there! Mahilig ka ba sa Gagamba? Please watch it and SUBSCRIBE to my RU-vid channel kung mahilig ka sa gagamba. Maraming salamat at stay safe sa lahat. God bless 🙏😇

I remember playing this on the GameBoy, so the music was slightly different and the picture was in black and white. This made it harder to see some of the obstacles before it was too late. Never made it past Tuesday. Also, without color, I had no idea that the guy waving his legs in the air even *was* a guy sticking his legs up in the air. I thought it was some kind of giant snail stretching and retracting its eye-stalks.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isaiah 55:7) When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. (Mark 2:17)

When the entire town is trying to attack you and you also have to navigate some kind of American Gladiators obstacle course, you need to ask for a pay raise.

how does the paperboy retire from 1 week?
