"Go for it! Goemon 3: The Mecha Leg Hold of Jurokube Shishi" is the third SNES entry in the series by Konami. It features single player and two player co-op modes, with a mix of overhead and sidescrolling action stages. Compared to the previous entries of the series, this game focuses more on exploration and puzzles. But there's still plenty of challenging action segments to enjoy, whether playing as Goemon and crew or the giant robot, Goemon Impact!

Expanding on the adventure side of the game, there are collectibles to discover, story events to gain new skills and upgrade weapons, and even a connected world map to explore. Can you find all of the beckoning cat statues and unlock the hidden ending?

The wise old man of Iga visits Goemon, Ebisumaru, and Omitsu to show off his latest invention, a time machine. But when he uses it to "check out" girls in the future, he is captured by Sister Bismal and forced to work for Jurokube Shishi, leader of the evil Mechanical Gang of Thieves. It's up to Goemon and Ebisumaru to gather allies and travel to the future world of Neo Oedo to defeat Jurokube and rescue the old man!

Note - The original series of patches for this game was created for Revision 0 of the game, which contained several infamous bugs, and the patches' attempts to fix them ended up creating other bugs. It also expanded the file size to 4 MB and increased the save file size, which caused problems when reproducing the game.

The version hosted here is for Revision 2 of the game, and only expands the file size to 3 MB and leaves the save file size unmodified. This should fix the game's original bugs and make it more reliable to play.
