About this game

Nearly a month after the Gospel incident, Lan and his friends are preparing for a new school term when an invitation to the N1 Grand Prix draws them into another cyberworld adventure. Explore the real world as Lan, investigate problems and jack into electronic devices as MegaMan.EXE. In battle, dodge across the grid, fire the Mega Buster and combine Battle Chips with matching names or codes. Refill your chip selection when the battle gauge fills. Arrange your folder with Standard, Mega and Giga Class Chips, set a Regular Chip, and strengthen MegaMan through Style Changes and the Navi Customizer. Blue has version-specific chips, bosses and encounters. Save from the Subscreen; original link play supports chip and program trading, Net Battles and library comparison using two GBA systems, two cartridges and a Game Link cable.
