Trivia

 * The differences of Needle Man between the NES version and the Cell Phone version of Mega Man 3 is that the NES version is a lot more simple to defeat as he fires his Needle Shot but slowly falls down. The cell phone version has Needle Man staying in the air as he shoots his Needle Shot making it more frustrating to avoid this attack.
