Hey look, a Mega Man fact thread?! That's right, this thread is entirely based on the facts we know of Mega Man that might sound a little kooky or a bit out-there, but they tend to make it so that the Mega Man Series has it's fair share of interesting facts! So, let's try to get out there and spread that learning!

Hilarious how Metal Man is murdered easily by his own weapon. The same goes kinda the same for Megs the Man 3.

Also in Megs 3, the Doc Robot's weaknesses might seem...strange.(Air Doc Robot Man- Spark Shot and Magnet Missile)

It's(been) Summer! Course, I still don't get off work......

Originally, Fire Man could melt ice.

In Mega Man Official Complete Works, Keiji Inafune stated that Heat Man was his favorite Robot Master from Mega Man 2, because he's such a "gimmicky" character.

In Mega Man: The Power Battle, unused sprites show animations of Heat Man lighting and smoking a cigarette. Maybe he isn't so kid-friendly after all.

Turbo Man is a Flame core.

Sword Man already had a template for him made for fan submissions. He was "Katana" Man.

The first episode of Mega Man: Upon a Star has several (over 20) fire robots called Magma Man that were created by Dr. Wily in Mount Fuji.

Solar Man apparently has no visible head in his sprite, along with red hands instead of white, and his feet are also red instead of white.

Pharaoh Man has the same signature pose as Drill Man. Does that mean they're the...same?!

The jewel on Flame Man's head is green, but due to color limitation of the NES, it is orange in his Mega Man 6 mugshot.

Many fans theorize that RT-55J from Mega Man X is actually Auto, modified by Dr. Light to guard the Light Capsules. However, Auto actually makes a cameo appearance in Volt Catfish's boss intro in the Playstaton, Sega Saturn, PC, and Anniversary Collection editions of Mega Man X3.

Does this mean Auto survived an entire century when the other Classic Series robots didn't? Maybe he's tougher than he looks...

I've never that theory! Actually sounds quite possible. In the cameo, though...Why is Auto living near a dangerous infected criminal? And how is he watching something that happened mere seconds ago?!

Also another fan theory... Maybe Serges is Wily. In the Japanese version of X2, Serges's death statement says something like "To be killed by one of Light's...". Why would he care so much by being killed by Light's creation? How does he even know?! Another theory is that he's Issac, due to his intrest in Zero. Sigma also states he has a partner who hates X even more than him. What's most accepted is that Wily put his mind in the virus!

Here's something interesting: the weaknesses of the Doc Robots in Mega Man 3 coincide with the weaknesses of the Robot Masters!

-Doc Metal is weak to Magnet Missile and Hard Knuckle; Magnet Missile is effective against Hard Man.

-Doc Crash is weak to Hard Knuckle and Top Spin; Hard Knuckle is effective against Top Man.

-Doc Heat is weak to [Top Spin]{swift } and Shadow Blade; Top Spin is effective against Shadow Man.

-Doc Bubble is weak to Shadow Blade and Spark Shock; Shadow Blade is effective against Spark Man.

-Doc Air is weak to Spark Shock and Magnet Missile; Spark Shock is effective against Magnet Man.

-Doc Wood is weak to [Needle Cannon]{cutter_missile } and Search Snake; Needle Cannon is effective against Snake Man.

-Doc Quick is weak to Search Snake and Gemini Laser; Search Snake is effective against Gemini Man.

-Doc Flash is weak to Gemini Laser and Needle Cannon; Gemini Laser is effective against Needle Man.

@Spinstrike : How have I never realized this?!? To add some more interesting facts, in Mega Man 5, Gyro Man, a flying robot, is weak to a flash weapon. In Mega Man 6, Wind Man, a flying robot, is weak to a flash weapon.

Plant Man is weak to Gyro Man in Mega Man: The Power Battle
Gyro Man is weak to Plant Man in Mega Man: The Power Fighters

Did you change your mind all of a sudden, Capcom?

Weakness charts are always screwy.

Heat Man had smoking sprites in Mega Man: The Power Battle. These were removed for obvious reasons.
Censorship for the win!


Meanwhile, unused sprites for Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters hints that Mega Man's special may have been the Hadouken instead of the Mega Upper.
See?

It. Is. REVIVED!!!!!!

In Megaman Battle Network 2, the Spooky virus has an unused "laugh" sprite.



Moving on, all the characters from Megaman: The Power Battle have unused ladder sprites. Bass also has unused sprites for his trademark ability to fire in multiple directions.

People who have played Megaman ZX Advent are aware of all the attacks of Model H (or Aeolus). However, his Sonic Boom (Slice, Slash, Slice) attack is doable in Megaman ZX, despite the fact that they never teach you. Try it!

Unless you count Copy X, Mega Man Volnutt is the only incarnation of Megaman to not appear in every game of his series (there was a spin-off title called "The Misadventures of Tron Borne(?)"). Also, Mega Man (Star Force series) is the only incarnation of Mega Man (again, unless you count Copy X) to not appear in a fighting game as a playable character.

In Mega Man 6, the enemy Colton that appears in Tomahawk Man's stage and Mr. X is named after a Colt revolver, which is typically associated with cowboys and most hold 6 bullets. How many mega buster shots are needed to destroy a Colton? 6.

Ok, why does everyone love MM2? i like it, but not "i HEART MM2 WITH MY SOUL!" but just wondering, and yes, bond man is a legend, though he was gonna be in MMPU. also, there is in fact a bird-chicken -ish robot, which you see in the shop *in this game*, Dont quote me on this, "reagge? regaee? idk." so yea, i knew about that guy before the shop was put in this ame, cuz i was 7, and played MM7. (and saw that. ;P wrong passwords can be helpful, and the color background for him was pink-ish purple.)

In Super Smash Bros for 3DS and Wii U, Mega Man's alt colors are, obviously, colors of weapons he uses. However, all the alts are based on weapons that Mega Man has brought to Smash EXCEPT the Grey/Yellow alt. It is based on Thunder Beam OR Thunder Wool, non of which appear in Mega Man's arsenal. HOWEVER, Elec Man is the owner of the Thunder Beam, who appears as an Assist Trophy.

EDIT: Actually, the alt is based on Top Spin. Thanks to RhythymBCA for pointing out this DERP.

In the Megaman Battle Network series, Gregar (Megaman Battle Network 6 GREGAR VERSION ONLY) is the only final boss in the series to be able to delete your battle chips (correct me if I'm wrong!).

@Retro Pikachu : Assuming you're referring to the last of Mega Man's alternate costumes for Smash. That's actually Top Spin, which IS in his arsenal. All of his colors correspond to weapons in his arsenal that he uses.
