Mega Man Star Force, known in Japan as Ryuusei no Rockman (流星のロックマン, Ryūsei no Rockman?) (officially translated Shooting Star Rockman), is a Mega Man action role-playing video game published and developed by Capcom for the Nintendo DS handheld video game console. It was released on December 14, 2006 in Japan, and was released in North America on August 7, 2007.
The game was released in three separate versions simultaneously, subtitled Pegasus (ペガサス?), Leo (レオ?), and Dragon (ドラゴン?). However, the Dragon version was initially released exclusively to GameStop and EB Games stores in North America.
Despite many similarities, Mega Man Star Force is considered a separate entity from the Mega Man Battle Network series. Both an anime and manga were produced several months prior to the game's Japanese release date. So far, only the anime has been adapted into English. A follow-up game, Mega Man Star Force 2, was released on November 22, 2007.

Famous quotes containing the words man, star and/or force:
“No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“I would that we were, my beloved, white birds on the foam of the sea!
We tire of the flame of the meteor, before it can fade and flee;
And the flame of the blue star of twilight, hung low on the rim of the sky,
Has awaked in our hearts, my beloved, a sadness that may not die.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. And also the only real tragedy in life is being used by personally minded men for purposes which you recognize to be base.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
