Official description

"humor, new challenges every game, super realism and animation, great sound.
That's why Paperboy has been delivering top profits for over 20 weeks.
And is still going strong! "Consistent high earnings by design.
That's the real name of this game.

John Salwitz and Dave Ralston behind me are the Atari designers who created Paperboy. They can tell you more about why it's a hit than anyone.
Dave Ralston says: 'We wanted our game to be really crazy, an extension of real life that would let the player experience actions he wouldn't do in real life.
John, who programmed the game, says "The higher resolution System II hardware we're using added a new dimension to what we could do.
We created an entire world for Paperboy, a whole cast of wild characters and dozens of hilarious scenarios to keep the game always challenging "It's great fun whether you're an expert or a novice.

Paperboy is this summer's hottest hit.
So don't put it off.
Get in on this top profit opportunity now.
