Using the prizes he had won, Wily constructed a robot production facility in the pacific ocean from which he would stage his ambition for world domination. After many years he finally announced his ambition to the world, exclaiming he would achieve this by stealing six (eight in Mega Man: Powered Up) of Dr. Light's industrial Robot Masters and reprogramming them.

Trivia

 * According to the American manual for MegaMan1, Dr. Wily was Dr. Light's assistant and worked on his DRN series of robots. Though this story was reinforced by the Ruby Spears cartoon and later the PAL version of Powered Up, it is not factual to the japanese version of Wily's backstory.


 * According to Nintendo Power, during the review on Mega Man 3, the reviewers said Wily became evil due to a mind-altering accident. But this has yet to be confirmed.
