The Story Behind Paperboy 2
Paperboy 2 is an action video game, the sequel to the arcade video game Paperboy. It was released in 1991–1992 for Amiga, Amstrad CPC, MS-DOS, Game Boy, Game Gear, Genesis, Nintendo Entertainment System, Super NES, and ZX Spectrum. While Paperboy debuted in arcades and was subsequently ported to personal computers and consoles, the sequel was only released for home systems.
How Paperboy 2 Plays
Paperboy 2 is an action video game, the sequel to the arcade video game Paperboy. There are four specific actions that can be taken somewhere in the middle of each stage that reward the player with a front-page photo on the newspaper afterwards. While Paperboy debuted in arcades and was subsequently ported to personal computers and consoles, the sequel was only released for home systems.
Both heroic stories would show a happy policeman rewarding the paperboy with candy. Others could be coming across a gas station being robbed and hitting the gunman with a paper behind his back, then having the next day's paper headlined with "Paperboy {Papergirl} Foils Armed Robbery" or seeing a runaway baby carriage and stopping it with a paper, and the forthcoming headline being "Girl {Boy} Saves Breakway Baby". Such actions included breaking a window with a paper, where the next day's paper would read "Mysterious Vandalism Baffles Police", showing an angry policeman looking at broken windows.
Why Players Still Load It Up
While Paperboy debuted in arcades and was subsequently ported to personal computers and consoles, the sequel was only released for home systems. Among the four reviewers in Electronic Gaming Monthly, they described the Game Boy version of the game as suffering from the limitations of the size of the Game Boy's screen and the black and white graphics with two reviewers recommending it to fans of the original game. Power Unlimited gave the Game Gear version a score of 78% writing: "One of the most American games ever made, and addictive too.
A blunder is the music, which becomes very annoying at a certain point." Jonathan Davies of Super Play gave the SNES version a 29 percent rating. Ed Ricketts of Amiga Format gave the Amiga version a 44 percent rating.
