Mega Man Battle Network 3

Mega Man Battle Network 3 is the third game from the Mega Man Battle Network series, released for Game Boy Advance. It follows Lan Hikari and his NetNavi MegaMan.EXE as they battle the second incarnation of the WWW. A sequel, Mega Man Battle Network 4, was released the following year.

Battle Network 3 is the first game in the series to come in two versions. The original Japanese release started as a standalone game, however a second version titled Rockman EXE 3 BLACK was released a few months later. Like later alternate versions, it replaced and introduced exclusive Battle Chips, chip codes, a boss, a form change, and a number of cosmetic changes. Unlike later games however, the in-game shop stock greatly differs, there are exclusive NaviCustomizer parts, and contains one new boss that doesn’t replace a Navi from the original. Despite releasing later, the same bugs from the original can be found in Black.
