'''''Mega Man Battle Network''''', known in Japan as known in Japan as '''''Battle Network Rockman.EXE''''' (バトルネットワーク ロックマンエグゼ, ''Batoru Nettowāku Rokkuman Eguze'') is the first entry of the main [[Battle Network series|''Battle Network'' series]], developed by [[Capcom]] and released for the [[Game Boy Advance]] in 2001. Set in an alternative timeline from the [[Mega Man (series)|''Mega Man'']] games that came before it, it details the adventures of [[Lan Hikari]] and his [[Net Navi]] [[MegaMan.EXE]] in a world centred around the [[Internet]] and digital programs rather than robots.
Though its gameplay features would become typical for later ''Battle Network'' games, the game marks a major departure from previous ''Mega Man'' series, being an action RPG rather than a platformer or pure action game. It also focuses strongly on the collection of [[Battle Chip]]s, making use of the Game Boy Advance's Game Link Cable to trade these items between different game carts or battle other players for them.
An enhanced port for the [[Nintendo DS]] called ''[[Rockman.EXE: Operate Shooting Star]]'' was released in Japan only in 2009.

Mega Man Battle Network, known in Japan as known in Japan as Battle Network Rockman.EXE (バトルネットワーク ロックマンエグゼ, Batoru Nettowāku Rokkuman Eguze) is the first entry of the main Battle Network series, developed by Capcom and released for the Game Boy Advance in 2001. Set in an alternative timeline from the Mega Man games that came before it, it details the adventures of Lan Hikari and his Net Navi MegaMan.EXE in a world centred around the Internet and digital programs rather than robots.

Though its gameplay features would become typical for later Battle Network games, the game marks a major departure from previous Mega Man series, being an action RPG rather than a platformer or pure action game. It also focuses strongly on the collection of Battle Chips, making use of the Game Boy Advance's Game Link Cable to trade these items between different game carts or battle other players for them.

An enhanced port for the Nintendo DS called Rockman.EXE: Operate Shooting Star was released in Japan only in 2009.
