Mega Man 3 (NES - Capcom - 1990 - NOE)

Mega Man 3 (NES - Capcom - 1990 - NOE) This episode might be the one that I’ve played the most on NES. Once again, the music is stellar but the overall flow of the game suffers from massive slowdowns that were absent from the second game (the development cycle for Mega Man 3 was pretty disturbed). This is a NOE version which was common here in France, despite having German text on the box and the manual. Back then, retailers didn’t hesitate to import games from border countries to prevent shortages. Because of the law, everything had to be translated, hence the black and white repro FAH instruction manual. I should find myself a proper French version someday.
