Restore: Paperboy: 'Exclusive!' - Restore with enhanced side art
marioxb:
I had no idea the original Paperboy had no sideart to speak of until I read that Game Informer. The article did remind me of the generic Atari cab art. As a matter of fact, just a few days ago, my wife and I played a modified "Pole Position" cabinet at COSI (an interactive science museum type place here in Columbus, OH)'s Mythbusters exhibit a few days ago. They simply but black tape over any text on the sides (but left Atari's Pole Position art) and replaced the marquee with "Blind Driver". There was no screen and you had to drive blindly while someone else stands on the side of the cab directing you.
Anyway, in the same Game Informer, I found out that the Captain N cartoon was originally going to be called Paperboy and center on that game and its star!

hello maximus. Congratulations, I'm very impressed. I really been a dream.
find your article because I thought making a paperboy and I got an original command, add a photo.
here in Argentina it is almost impossible to find a complete original arcade paperboy, maybe get a pcb running, hopefully.
but I planned to use a PC to emulate the game.
I have understood that the furniture is exactly like the sprint championship, right?
days ago I search on the web the measures or plans cabinet but can not.
could you help me with that?
You could spend even a few external measures cabinet ?, then I can handle it for the rest, thanks to yours photos. (although I can not see them all, do not know why ...)
from already thank you very much and congratulations again
a greeting from here.
Paul.

I didn't know he sold it - I thought this was supposed to be a forever cabinet. Kinda makes me sad.
