Story
It's a disaster: Doctor Light's lab has been attacked by Doctor Wily, and stolen some crucial parts for robots. And, if it weren't bad enough already, he has taken Roll as a hostage! Mega Man and Proto Man go to stop Wily and stumble upon Duo, the big alien robot, who is willing to help. And Bass, still angry that Wily has revived more Robot Masters, again teams up with the good side to destroy the enemies...

Trivia

 * In Bass' ending, Dr. Wily shows the plans from a new robot he is developing, and it looks very similar to a certain robot with long hair... Interestingly enough, the silhoutte of the robot depicted corresponds to his design after the events of his first official appearence.


 * Each character has a "special attack" they can perform by charging their weapon fully, holding up then releasing the shot. Mega Man will perform a spiraling uppercut, Proto Man will unleash a short ranged flare from his Buster, Bass will perform a somersault kick, and Duo will launch his energized hand forward (If the player presses the jump button after Duo does so, he will jump into the air and smack the enemy back down). All these attacks can be upgraded after finding the stolen parts in the mission "Search For Wily!" and are reference to Capcom's Street Fighter series.


 * Another factor making each character unique is their "sliding" maneuver. While Mega Man simply uses the classic Power Slide, Proto Man will dash forward shield-first, Bass will fly forward (which he can also do in mid-air) and Duo will perform a damaging shoulder charge.


 * In "Rescue Roll", if she is rescued after defeating the second boss, she will wink when she gives the player the item enhancer.
 * Unused sprites show that Megaman may have been able to use the Hadoken from Street Fighter.UnusedmegamanHadoken.gif
