Gamma's Law: Explaining Why Mega Man 3 is a Released Beta

Gamma’s Law states “Whenever anyone questions anything regarding Mega Man 3 (such as boss design, controls, weapon concepts, or stage layout), the answer is always ‘Because Mega Man 3 is a released beta.’”

This video expands on why Mega Man 3 is an unfinished, broken game and how this happened. This is NOT a review, and should not be taken as such, instead of focusing on being a documentary of what caused Mega Man 3 to release in this state and what the consequences of it are.
