The Story: During the tournament to determine the strongest robot in the world, suddenly, the robots turn against their masters and begin to serve Mr. X. Mr. X, the mysterious sponsor of the tournament, claims that he has been using Dr. Wily as his puppet from the beginning, but now feels confident to leave Wily behind and take over the world himself. Mega Man vows to stop him and takes on the 8 Robot Masters stolen from the tournament, said to be the strongest 8 robots ever created.

Episode 01: Pinball Blizzard
As the eight finalists in the competition gather for the final event, Mr. X takes the stage to announce exactly what this final event entails. The old man cackles as he announces that the final test for each of these robots is to help him conquer the world. He has been manipulating Dr. Wily from the start, he claims, and has now reprogrammed the eight most powerful robots to help him achieve his ultimate goal! The crowd is thrown into a panic as he and his now-reprogrammed robots exit the arena to start the plan.
Mega Man, a spectator at the event, will not allow this. He takes Rush and starts to challenge the eight robots one by one.

We're going to play ANOTHER FUCKING MEGA MAN GAME?
Anyone seen complaining will be blocked. I don't care. Its my channel and I'll do what I want. Besides, its for my friends. I will admit right now, compared to the other Mega Man titles I have not played this one a lot and will probably do pretty bad at it.
So, starting off we start off with Blizzard Man. I know a lot of people who start with Plant Man but I always start with this one. I don't know why. His stage isn't too bad except for the ice physics. You wont stop when you let go of the run, to stop in place just jump while not holding the directional buttons.
Some hazards here and there, mainly timed bombs over pits and spikes. The stage has a miniboss of sorts, Squidon, who appears twice. He'll attack by shooting ice cubes and homing missles but overall he isn't too bad, especially if you get right in his face and fire away. The trickiest bit to the stage probably comes at the very end with the timed bombs, but I don't find it hard at all.
Blizzard Man himself I find easy. He has two attacks, his Blizzard Attack and his rolling attack. The Blizzard Attack is easily avoided. His rolling attack can be a little tricky, as I've taken hits trying to jump over it. Also, if you are far away from him he will close in and trap you against a wall so I find it best to stay close to him at all times but not too close to prevent that.
Information on Blizard Man below.
Blizzard Man was an entrant for the world's first strongest robot competition, and was stolen by Dr. Wily using the guise of Mr. X. Originally he was created for observation in the Antarctic, but his weather investigation equipment was replaced with a machine that produces artificial snow. As an Antarctic observation robot, he has the body of an unusual snowman, and is also equipped with a pair of skis. He is known as a player of winter sports, and has won three gold medals in the Winter Robot Olympics.
His main attack is Blizzard Attack, which allows him to rapidly freeze the air around him and create ice crystals that fly at Mega Man. He can also roll up into a ball and attempt a body slam attack.
Being a robot created for scientific purposes, he is good at giving explanations, but he tends to lose his temper easily. He likes skiing but, oddly, dislikes snowboarding. Lately he has found work as a TV weather forecaster.
Episode 02: Keeper Of The Flame
After defeating the Robot Master that represent Canada, Mega Man heads off to confront Flame Man.
I honestly find Flame Man's stage one of the easier ones. It can be tricky with some of its jumps and the instant death fire. But other than that its not that bad. I also like the gimmick of riding across the oil with the Pooker, it can also float over the fire that can be created by the Fire Telly's.
Flame Man himself is kind of easy. I do take hits but I'm honestly not trying to no hit the bosses, granted, I could have done so. He will shoot a flame stream across the ground with a space in between for Mega Man to stand inbetween. It seems the safe spot seems to be a half-screen away from Flame Man. He will also shoot out fire balls that move slowly and he always shoots them in multiples of three, so sometimes he can fire just three, sometimes six, etc, etc.
Information on Flame Man below.
Flame Man was originally created as a thermal power generating robot. It's said his internal thermal power generator could provide electricity to many homes and factories, and while it's an outdated power source it can provide high energy output with more stability than solar powered robots can manage. Flame Man was modified for battle and entered into the world's first strongest robot competition. His thermal power circuits were turned outward so he could utilize the great thermal energy in attacks. Ultimately, Flame Man was stolen by Dr. Wily under the guise of Mr. X, and incorporated into his plot.
Flame Man's main attack is the Flame Blast, which allows him to create pillars of fire that burst from the ground. He can also shoot smaller fireballs.
Flame Man has a very punctual personality. It's said he has to change his oil at specific times three times a day. However, living by routines also makes him a bit needy. He enjoys maintaining his mustache, and dislikes cheap oil.
Episode 03: Chemical Plant
After defeating the Robot Master that represents India, Mega Man heads off to confront Plant Man.
I find Plant Man's stage kind of on the difficult side. I hate the final stretch with the springs. Its just annoying and presents an unfair difficult challenge, in my opinion. The mini boss of the stage is also kind of annoying, the Gorilla Tank. It constantly advances forward, shooting a spread shot and its own fist. To avoid the spread shot, you need to keep distance between you and the tank, which is down by shooting it in the body, which will push it back.
Plant Man himself is easy. Granted he is a little erratic in how he behaves. I don't think there is any clear indication if he's going to jump towards Mega Man or away, but he goes down pretty easy. If it wasn't for the stage, I'd probably suggest a lot of new people to go him first.
Information on Plant Man below.
Plant Man was originally a robot created to manage vegetation, and at one point was the popular mascot of a botanical garden. However, he was modified for battle and given a camouflage coating so he could participate in the world's strongest robot competition. It's said that Plant Man is able to communicate with plants, and that he'll snap like a raging fire if a flower is ever stepped on. Plant Man was stolen by Dr. Wily under the guise of Mr. X and used for his world domination scheme.
Episode 04: Wild Is The Wind
After defeating the Robot Master that represents Brazil, Mega Man heads off to confront Wind Man.
Wind Man's stage has a mix of easy and hard difficulty. At least to me. Overall, at a glance, the stage is pretty average, however, the fans is what makes it hard to me. They aren't tricky by any means but when enemies are near them, that's when it can get a little annoying. Also, the most annoying enemy in this game has got to be the Cannopeller. They place them near most of the fans and they are just annoying.
Wind Man himself is a little on the easy side and probably one of the few Robot Masters that doesn't use the ability that Mega Man gains from him, instead throwing propellers at him. Overall though, he has an easy pattern.
Information on Wind Man below.
Wind Man is a robot who was originally created for agricultural use. Equipped with both jet power and propeller power, he generated winds over lands that increased the yields of harvests. He also worked in areas involving wind energy, as he is capable of creating winds as fast as 200 meters per second. Wind Man was modified for battle and entered into the world's strongest robot competition, but he was stolen by Dr. Wily under the guise of Mr. X.
Wind Man's primary weapon is the Wind Storm, which allows him to create powerful gusts that pull his opponents towards him. He also can fire propeller blades from his buster. Furthermore, he is capable of movements much faster than his appearance tells because of jet boosters equipped on the soles of his feet.
Wind Man, who is created with a more humanoid Air Man-type body, has a running rivalry with Air Man. Wind Man is said to be an excellent cook. He's seemingly troubled that he's unable to ride a bicycle. He likes kung-fu and dislikes herbal medicines.
