Stage Select Screen

The Stage Select Screen (ステージセレクト画面) is a recurring screen in the Mega Man and Mega Man X series that allows players to select the stages available in any order.

In the first Mega Man, only six stages are available, with Mega Man 2 onward having eight stages. Some games, like Mega Man 8 and the Game Boy games, have four stages available, with other four becoming available later. In Mega Man & Bass, stages are unlocked depending on the order they are cleated. The Stage Select from the Wily Tower mode in Mega Man: The Wily Wars contains three stages. The Stage Select from Mega Man X2 shows the location of the X-Hunters.

In the Mega Man Zero and Mega Man ZX series, the stage selection was replaced by the Mission selection.
