Xbox 360 snags classic 3rd-Party Nintendo title


The first classic Nintendo title to arrive on a next-gen system will land on the doorstep of Xbox 360 owners via a port of Midway's Atari's classic 1984 arcade hit, Paperboy by Midway, according to GameSpot. (Technically, game was released for the NES and many other systems years after its initial arcade appearance, but most readers will have experienced it first on the NES).

Which memorable NES classics sit in third-party vaults outside the control of the Nintendo corporation? Those are the next candidates to be picked up, dusted off, and ported to Xbox Live Arcade.
