MEGA MAN

THE BLUE BOMBER MAKES HIS DEBUT

The war between Mega Man, the do-gooding robot, and Dr. Wily, the sinister scientist, began in this original classic. Dr Wily's robot leaders can be taken in any order. My recommended order is shown here. Each victory will bring you a new wepon which can be used in the next stage.

BOMB MAN

While Bomb Man's domain is one of the largest of all the Robot Leaders' Stages, you will easily be able to clear the area without Special Wepons. Make sure that you collect Power-Ups along the way and watch out for deadly spikes.

The explosive power of Bomb Man should not be overlooked. He can jump far and throw bombs far distances. Try to stay on the opposite side of the screen so that you'll have plenty of time to react when he tosses a bomb in your direction. When your not making evasive maneuvers, hit him with an Arm Cannon attack. Victory will earn you the Bomber!!

GUTS MAN

The most dangerous features of Guts Mans sector are the trap door platforms near the beginning. Watch the track that they travel on and jump just before the platforms drop. It's very tricky.

This big guy may look tough,but he buckels under the pressure of the Bomber. Three blasts willsend him flying and net you Guts power.

CUT MAN

There are shielded cannons along the walls of the Cut Man stage. Take them out one at a time and make your way upward. If you're careful, you should be able to clear the area quickly.

There are two huge blocks in cut man's chamber. Use them to your advantage by switching on to guts power and by tossing them in cut man's direction. If you connect with both, cut man will go down and the cut blade will be yours.

ELEC MAN

Disappearing platforms are among Dr. Wily's most famous obstacles. He first experimented with them here. The magnet beam will help you clear areas that feature these platforms. You'll find it in behind two huge blocks. Move them with guts power.

Elec Man may think he's big time, but you can cut him down to size with the cut blade. Three hits will render him powerless and give you control of the fabulous elec beam. If your completing stages out of proposed order you can still get him with the arm cannon, just avoid the beams!

ICE MAN

The main worry in the ice man stage is the ice itself. Even after you stop running you'll continue to glide on the friction-less surface. Watch your footing.

When the ice man cometh you'd better strap on the elec beam and go to work. After three jolts it will be over. You can grab the ice ray and move on.

FIRE MAN

What better way to extinguish Fire Man but with the chilling power of the Ice Ray. Leap over his walls of flame and hit him with a cold blast. You'll get the Flame Thrower.

DR. WILY STAGES

DR. WILY STAGE #1

Once you've done away with Dr. wilys inventions, you'll go after the madman himself. Use all of the weapons you've accumulated to get through the treacherous tests ahead.

THE ROCK MONSTER

This eerie creature flies apart and then comes back together on the other side of the room. Hit him with the Elec beam when he's all in one piece.

DR. WILY STAGE #2

Cut man and elec man have both been rebuilt for appearances in this section. Dispose of them as you did before and continue on to more challenging exercises.

MEGA CLONE

Dr. Wily is indeed a master of devices. He slapped together a perfect replica of Mega Man in order to confuse you. The clone has all of your special weapons too! Keey your distance, fire and evade.

DR. WILY STAGE #3

Water flows throughout this lef of your journey. Go with the flow, but don't rush into anything. Keep firing the Arm Cannon and fend off any finned fiends.

BUBBLE BOY

The predecessor of Bubble Man can encase himself in a bubble and float across the room. Give him a lasting impression of your strength by Guts powering a couple of blocks his way.

DR WILY STAGE #4

THE DOCTOR IS IN!

The doctor appears in a crazed contraption. Send it to the scrap heap by blasting the front-end. The doctor will beg for your forgiveness when he's down. Your future battles, though, will show that he lacks serenity.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!
