Buggy Boy

Let’s take a high-speed trip back to the golden age of arcade racing with Buggy Boy! This legendary 1980s arcade racer is firing on all cylinders as we play it on MAME - that’s right, the Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, perfect for bringing classic cabinets back to life without the loose change!

Originally released in 1985 by Tatsumi and later published by Atari in some regions, Buggy Boy (also known as Speed Buggy) throws you behind the wheel of a colorful off-road buggy and dares you to dodge obstacles, leap logs, and race against the clock. It's fast, it’s chaotic, and honestly, it still holds up today! From bridges to boulders and everything in between, this arcade gem packs a punch with its quirky tracks and vibrant charm.

Whether you’re a retro gaming fan, an arcade aficionado, or someone discovering these classics for the first time, this one’s for you. And yes, those massive CRT-style scanlines are in full nostalgic effect!

Expect jumps, crashes, coin-op chaos, and pure '80s arcade vibes. If you ever played this in an old arcade - or even just wished you had—you’ll feel right at home. And if you’ve never seen Buggy Boy before, get ready to be surprised by how fun and frantic things get.

So grab your virtual steering wheel, hit that gas pedal, and let’s rip through this retro racer in glorious emulated fashion. It’s all arcade love here!
