Rockman World 3 (Japan) is one of those Game Boy gems that somehow crammed a full Mega Man experience into a tiny cartridge. You’ve got your classic run-and-gun action, but with a few twists—like the ability to slide (which feels weirdly satisfying on the Game Boy’s d-pad) and some surprisingly tough boss fights. The music’s got that classic chiptune energy, though it’s a little muffled compared to the NES versions.

It’s not just a straight port, either—new stages, weapons, and even a couple of sneaky secrets if you’re willing to hunt for them. The controls take a minute to get used to, but once it clicks, blasting through Robot Masters feels as good as ever. Just don’t expect the screen to be big enough to always see what’s coming—this is still a Game Boy game, after all.
