Mega Man III

Released1992
Mega Man III is an action-platform video game by Capcom for the Nintendo Game Boy. It is the third game in the handheld version of the Mega Man series. The game follows the title character Mega Man as he fights the evil Dr. Wily, whose latest attempt to conquer the world involves sucking energy from the Earth's core to power a new machine. Along with foes from his past, Mega Man must contend with the next robot in Wily's line of "Mega Man Killers", Punk. Like its two consecutive predecessors on the Game Boy, the game combines elements from two previously released Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) titles: Mega Man 3 and Mega Man 4. In 2013, Mega Man III was made available on the Virtual Console of Japan's Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo 3DS. It was later released in the North American and PAL region eShops the following year.

About This Game

Months after vanquishing Dr. Wily, Mega Man receives troubling reports of global chaos—erratic weather patterns, communication breakdowns, and cascading industrial failures plague civilization. Dr. Light traces the source to a sabotaged worldwide supercomputer system and suspects Dr. Wily's involvement, particularly when waves of rogue robots emerge to terrorize populated areas. Recognizing the telltale signature of Wily's interference technology disrupting the network, Light enlists Mega Man once more to neutralize the robot threat and restore order before society collapses completely.
