Wily challenges our hero yet again, to a 'final' showdown.įans of Mega Man's 8-bit adventures will know what to expect from Mega Man III for the Game Boy. After these stages lies the game's biggest challenge, where the relentless Dr. Section one features levels and bosses yanked straight from Mega Man 3 for the NES, which include Gemini Man, Snake Man, Spark Man, and Shadow Man.Īfter neutralizing these bad guys, Mega Man is allowed access to the second section of the game, where he faces Dust Man, Skull Man, Dive Man, and Drill Man all straight from Mega Man IV. Mega Man must run, jump, slide and blast his way through two sections of four stages each. The blue bomber is back on the really small screen, this time mirroring his most recent NES adventures, Mega Man 3 and 4.All of this is stated on the respective entry(ies) on Murata's official worklist, where he also recounts being praised for the success of the game's soundtrack in light of the series' previous entry. He was contracted through Minakuchi Engineering (following his work with said company on the Game Boy edition of Bionic Commando) and would later return for the next entry in the series. Wily has created a tough robot named Punk, who has a single purpose: destroy Mega Man at all costs.Īs with the rest of the classic Mega Man series titles released for Game Boy, the game lacks a credits sequence for the game's staff and instead offers a 'cast roll' for the game's characters.įor this title, all of the sound duties (music composition, music arrangement, sound effects, porting and driving/programming) were handled by one man: freelance sound designer Kouji Murata. The government calls Mega Man to stop him before he can get what he needs-energy from the earth's magma so he can create his newest battle robot-and use it for his evil purposes.

That is, until the government discovers a top secret underwater mining operation set up by the dastardly doc. Wily goes into hiding and isn't heard from for many months. Punk later appeared in Mega Man V and Mega Man 10.Īfter the last defeat, Dr. Wily keeps a close eye on him, to prevent any kind of untimely betrayal. He can also reconfigure himself into a soaring saw blade, by locking himself into his indestructible shell.

Punk's weapon is the Screw Crusher, a motorized saw blade. He believes the only way to win is by not following the rules, and his allies are weary of his back-stabbing habits.

Punk - A street-fighting bully who fears nothing and no one.
