Play Paperboy (Europe) Online

Paperboy for the NES is that weirdly addictive game where you ride your bike down suburban streets, tossing newspapers at mailboxes while dodging everything from rogue skateboarders to runaway lawnmowers. The controls are simple—just throw left or right—but nailing perfect throws between flower pots feels way more satisfying than it should.

What starts as a chill delivery job quickly turns chaotic when dogs, tornadoes, and grim reapers (yes, really) start messing with your route. The pixelated neighborhoods have this weird charm, like every house has its own little story—especially the ones where you accidentally smash their windows with a wild throw. It’s one of those games where failure is half the fun.

Fair warning: the collision detection can be brutal, but that just makes nailing a flawless run feel like a tiny victory. Still holds up if you like old-school arcade chaos.
