Mega Man 3 Explodes in Back-to-Back Robot Battle!
It's robot rebellion, and nobody's safe! Least of all Mega Man. This time the superpowerful cyborg takes on a horde of metal maniacs who've had it with being obedient! And they use every android-annihilator ever invented to make you believe it!
Mega Man goes berserk, blasting through a galaxy of mining stations in search of energy crystals. But it takes more than guts to handle the phenomenal robot-masters who control these worlds. It's a wrenching job, the worst -- and the best -- that Mega Man's faced so far!
- 21 rapid-fire levels.
- Fight all-new, totally terrifying foes!
- Call Rush, your dogdroid, for super machines that speed you past danger!
- Demolish master robots and gain their powers for the final cataclysmic clash!
Tight spots? No problem! Rebound on Mega-Dog Rush's springboard.
Leap, slide, and fire on the fly to smelt down the heavy metal.
All aboard! Mega Man rises -- and Rushes -- to the challenge.
In the year 200X, the notorious Dr. Wily, now reformed and working for the forces of good, works hand in hand with Dr. Light to build a new type of peacekeeping robot. When a new set of eight Robot Masters escapes the lab to wreak havoc on the world at large, only Mega Man can save the day! This time, Mega Man must rely on his new slide move and his canine companion Rush to conquer the stages and vanquish evil. A new character, Proto Man, adds to the mystery and appeal of this seminal title in the famous action-game series.
Only Mega Man can save the day! Battle eight new Robot Masters in the third installment of the series.
Original Release Date: September 1990

Story
Dr. Wily has claimed to have reformed, and is working together with Dr. Light on a new peacekeeping robot. In order to finish the robot, they need energy crystals. The crystals can be found on a group of mining worlds, but the robots there have started to attack. Mega Man must defeat these robots and obtain the energy crystals needed to finish the robot.
Gameplay
Mega Man 3 keeps the structure of the previous games, in which Mega Man must defeat eight Robot Masters to progress. Defeating a Robot Master gives the player the ability to use their weapon in other stages. Mega Man has a new move in this game in the form of the slide, which allows Mega Man to slide quickly across the ground and under low ceilings and obstacles. The player also has access to Rush, Mega Man's robot dog who has three abilities. By default the player can use Rush Coil, which allows Mega Man to jump to higher ledges, and by defeating particular Robot Masters can unlock Rush Marine, which allows Mega Man to move freely underwater; and Rush Jet, which allows Mega Man to move freely through the air. In certain stages, the player will encounter another robot known as "Break Man", who will battle with similar capabilities to Mega Man.
