Nitro Man

Nitro Man (ニトロマン) is a Robot Master from Mega Man 10. He can transform into a motorcycle and release several Wheel Cutters.

He is a stunt robot who has appeared in many movies and TV shows. He is willing to do whatever stunts he is asked regardless of the risks. Nitro Man is also the president of a robot stunt club which has sixty members.

Strategy
Nitro Man rides around in his bike mode and tries to ram into you. Afterwards, he will perform a wheelie, ride up the wall, change back into his normal mode, and fire Wheel Cutters. Nitro Man will also throw several Wheel Cutters while on the ground.

On Easy Mode, he only throws one Wheel Cutter at a time and never performs wheelies; just keep jumping and you shouldn't be hit if careful.

On Hard Mode, his bike mode is ridiculously fast and he runs a short path again and again instead of across the room.

The Chill Spike works best against Nitro Man, since the shot will freeze him (and force him to restart his attack pattern) and the spikes both destroy Wheel Cutters and do heavy damage to him.

Trivia

 * Nitro Man is the third robot master with the ability to transform into a vehicle, after Turbo Man and Ground Man (or the fourth if Galaxy Man's U.F.O. is considered a vehicle).


 * Even though Nitro Man has a yellow light on his chest, it is white in sprite form because of palette limitations on sprites.


 * Nitro Man is the only Robot Master in Mega Man 10 to not enter the boss room in the normal fashion, i.e., fall down from the ceiling. Instead, he rides in from the left of the screen in his motorcycle form to the right, then stops and transforms into his humanoid form.


 * His stage music was featured in the first Mega Man 10 trailer.


 * Nitro Man's Wheel Cutter weapon is similar to Wheel Gator's Spin Wheel weapon in Mega Man X2, except that Wheel Cutter can be used to climb walls.


 * Nitro Man was originally the name of a Robot Master for a fan-made game, Mega Man Unlimited. However, after Capcom announced Nitro Man for Mega Man 10, the creator, MegaPhilX, was forced to change the name to Trinitro Man. This is merely a coincidence, though.
