Get on the Ride Armor platform, select a Ride Armor (except Frog), and proceed until you find a wall made up two crates, just before the final vertical section leading to Gravity Beetle. Just after the tall vertical area with an elevator, go up the hole in the ceiling. It can get refilled by absorbing enemy projectiles, even if you don't equip the Hyper Cannon. It will automatically charge up your X-Buster with limited uses due to its ammunition meter.

Press the fire button to close the map and resume play. The flashing red circles are the items you haven't found yet. When you enter a stage, a map will be shown by X's helmet. The pink text indicates the items you haven't found yet, grey text what items you have found.

Travel as far to the right as X can go, then, just as he starts to descend, pause the game. Slide down a little, then dash jump off the wall. After breaking the wall with Tornado Fang, climb up the wall to near the ceiling. It involves exploiting a glitch where changing to Zero in mid-air extends how far you can travel without dropping too much. There is however another, much easier, and much sneakier way to reach the capsule without the Leg Upgrade. Technically, it is possible reach the capsule without the Leg Upgrade, by dash jumping off of the wall underneath the overhang and reaching the platform leading to the capsule, however this is extremely difficult.
MEGAMAN X3 CHIPS CRACKED
When you see a dark gray cracked wall, use the Tornado Fang to burst through the wall, get in the secret room, and use the Leg Upgrade to reach the capsule. You can also charge up the special weapons. What it does: When you charge up your X-Buster and fire twice in a row in succession, the shots will combine and become much more powerful.Make sure you are touching the edge and get in to reach the capsule. Near the end of the stage, stand at the end of the last bridge, and do a dash jump. What it does: You can air dash horizontally or vertically by holding Up on the directional pad, jump, then dash.
