Mega Man 3 is an electronic handheld LCD game made by Tiger Electronics based on the original NES game of the same name. It requires two AA batteries to power. The background graphic is Gamma, and the face of the device features the American box art of Mega Man 3.
Story[]
- From the instruction manual of the game:
Dr. Wily is back with an arsenal of robots so strong, so devasting, that the entire universe is in peril.
The robots are Snake Man (S), Gemini Man (G), Needle Man (N), Shadow Man (SH), Spark Man (SP), and Magnet Man (M). These Wily creations plus the other enemies he has unleashed have such power that only Mega Man can defeat them.
When you defeat all these enemies, it sets up a classic confrontation of epic proportions -- Dr. Wily in the guise of a giant robot against Mega Man! It is a fever-pitched battle where only one can survive!
Instructions[]
The object of the game is to control Mega Man 3 to fight against Dr. Wily, his robots, and his other deadly forces of evil.
There are 7 stages. You must defeat the robot stageguard at the end of the first six stages in order to advance to stage 7.
You can fight on the first six stages in any order you wish. Whenever you defeat a stageguard, you acquire his weapon to help you on further stages.
After you have completed the first six stages, you earn the right to enter stage 7. On stage 7, you will face Dr. Wily himself who has taken the form of a giant robot!
Defeat Dr. Wily on stage 7 to win the game!
