Mega Man Cheats

Wii - Mega Man Cheats

Hint: Boss Order/Weaknesses

The first Mega Man game is like the rest of the classic series, in that when an enemy Robot Master (boss) is defeated, you gain their weapon. Therefore, going through the six Robot Masters in Mega Man in a certain order will work to your advantage. Here is the order we recommend:

• Bomb Man - Use Mega Buster (also weak to Fire Storm)
• Guts Man - Use Hyper Bombs
• Cut Man - Use Super Arm and Mega Buster
• Elec Man - Use Rolling Cutters
• Ice Man - Use Thunder Beam*
• Fire Man - Use Ice Slasher

After defeating the original six Robot Masters, you’ll gain access to Dr. Wily’s fortress. Here, you will run into more bosses, and knowing their weaknesses will also help you out.

• Rock Monster - Use Thunder Beam*
• Mega Man Clone - Use Thunder Beam*
• Bubble Machine - Use Mega Buster and Super Arm
• Dr. Wily (1) - Use Fire Storm
• Dr. Wily (2) - Use Thunder Beam*

* - See the associated hint called Thunder Beam Trick for especially easy kills.

Hint: Thunder Beam Trick

There’s an interesting glitch in the game when using Elec Man’s weapon, the Thunder Beam. If you shoot it and then press Select (to pause the game), you’ll allow the beam to strike an enemy more than once. Press Select constantly as a beam is shot, and a lone Thunder Beam can theoretically kill any enemy with a simple strike (such as Ice Man, the Rock Monster, or Mega Man’s clone). Give it a try. It’s cheap, but extremely effective.

Hint: Infinite Energy Capsules

If you need more health or weapon energy, and there’s a place on any given stage where there’s a capsule sitting there for you to grab, you can easily make it reappear. Simply scroll off of the screen (preferably to another part of the stage), and then backtrack to the previous location where the capsule was located. Doing so will make the health or weapon energy capsule reappear. Repeat this process as needed to refill your health and weapon energy.
