The BattleChip Gate (バトルチップゲート) is the first add-on peripheral for the Battle Network series. You are able to send BattleChips you purchased and use them in select games.

Starting up the game with the Gate attached, unlocks Operation Battle mode on the title screen.

In this mode, the player sends real life BattleChip to their Navis while having limited control over them. The controls are different than normal gameplay as well:

Button Usage
Left/Right Tells the Navi which column they should be on, when they can.
Up The option to get Navi to follow the enemy in the same row as much as possible, or avoid the same row as much as possible.
Down The option for the Navi to change the tactic from either using the buster, its special weapon, or not attacking.
Holding L The Navi stands still and slotting in chips lets you perform a Program Advance.
Start Pause

The gauge increases over time and the more hits you land. It decreases if you are hit or send BattleChips. Chips you are able to send are dependent on the gauges:

Color BattleChip
Yellow Standard Chip
Blue Mega Chip
Red Giga Chip

The mode goes through all version-exclusive Navis. The player is rewards with a star on the Operation Battle screen once finished,

Exclusive BattleChips

There are unique chips that are only available in physical form, therefore only usable in MMBN4 using the BattleChip Gate. These chips are available in 4.5 in game.

Rockman EXE 4.5 Real Operation

Battle chip gate - gold program.png

Operation Battle is changed from it was handled from 4. The Gate can now be used for the entirety of the game instead of being locked to one mode. However, the real life chip use can be depleted, and cannot be restored until you jack out or find a Gold Program to restore it.

4.5 BattleChip Gate can also VS Battle Network 4 BattleChip Gate. It will copy 4's resources minus the battle music, and its Operation Battle Mode transforms into 4's as well.
