Mega Man Star Force 3, known in Japan as Shooting Star Rockman 3 (流星のロックマン3 Ryūsei no Rokkuman Suri?), is a video game developed by Capcom for the Nintendo DS handheld game console. It was released in Japan on November 13, 2008 and in United States on June 30, 2009. The game was released with two versions: Black Ace (ブラックエース?) and Red Joker (レッドジョーカー?). Each features a unique cover and unique character transformations, among other features.

The core gameplay of Mega Man Star Force 3 is very similar to its predecessors. The player controls Geo Stelar, a fifth-grade boy who is able to perform an electromagnetic wave change with his AM-ian partner Omega-Xis to transform into Mega Man, an entity able to traverse in both the real and wave worlds. Field gameplay takes place on isometric maps where Geo can interact with his environment and other NPCs. In his human form, he is only able to travel in the physical world, restricted to seeing the wave world through his Visualizer (a special type of eyeglasses). However, by transforming into Mega Man, he can traverse both the real world and wave world. Unlike the previous two games, the player can transform into Mega Man at any time they wish.
