The ending screen simply says “YOU GOT IT!” (picture #2), after which you repeat both levels again.  My review describes how to beat it.  {Scott Stilphen}

BUG: The manual was based on the Commodore 64 version, and as a result contains several errors. It mentions using the space bar to toggle between your 3 weapons (Proton Beam, PKR Bomb, and PKR Shield), but you actually use the SELECT switch.  Also, it mentions that on the 2nd part (Broadway), when a ghost is hit, it dissolves into globs of slime which stay until a new wave of ghosts appear, and The Ghostbusters will march out into the street to mop them up; the slime actually appears whether or not you hit a ghost, and you have to put the fireball over the slime (and press the FIRE button) to collect it. The manual mentions "toggling the joystick" to make The Ghostbusters move left and right, but they never appear in the 2nd part.
