MAME ROW #54 - Paperboy
-
After seeing some wonkiness when trying to put my initials in, I think I know what MAME is trying to do. Since Paperboy was originally using an analog input, when you press a direction on the d-pad, MAME just keeps pressing that direction for you. I am not sure of a great way to "stop" it other than pressing the opposite way. That said, the game is totally playable. After only a few rounds I got 4575 on Easy Street.

- Getting your name in is quite difficult. Somehow I ended up with "N" before the timer ran out.
-
I've not tried it on MAME yet, but I played this one in the arcades (with the bicycle handlebars controller) and remember it was a right &*#@%^ to control then as well!

I just noticed that default by the names in the grid for Middle Road and Easy Street say something.
PAPER BOY IS THE GREATEST

Everytime the Paperboy arcade game comes to my mind I remember this picture of a guy holding the original Paperboy board:
same here. not shortly after, we got nes, had it jailbroken with dozens more crammed into a single board, that, not even 4th of its size.
