Boss tips

First, take on the bomb man stage. Then, you can use bombs against gut
man. It will take three hits to kill him. No use your guts against cut man.
Two hits will kill him. Go on over to the elec man stage. Three cuts will
render him helpless. Head toward ice man. Learn to jump in between his
blasts and use your elec powers against him for a three hit KO. Use ice
against fire man.
Get infinite lives

In the Bomb Man stage, you can get infinite lives by getting the one-up,
jumping out of the tunnel, and back into it before you hit the ground, and
the one-up will come back.

Here is a kind of order you can use for making this game more easier:
1-Bomb Man (use your normal arm, anyway you don't have the choice!!)
2-Guts Man (use the Boat Man arm to kill him)
3-Cut Man (use the Guts Man arm and throw the block athim, the two
block and he is dead)
4-Elec Man (use the Cut Man arm to kill him. Don't forget to take the
special arm on this level with the Guts Man arm)
5-Ice Man (use the Elec Man arm to kill him)
6-Fire Man (use the Ice Man arm to kill him, I think he is the most
difficult character to kill)
When you are in the Dr. Wily stage, first you will have to beat a very
tough monster who is compose by block who keep moving all the time.
Use the Elec Man arm to kill him, that's the best arm to kill him.
After, in the second stage of Dr. Wily you will have to beat again,
against Cut Man, here you can't use the Guts Man arm cause no block's
are there, so kill him with your normal ball. After Elec Man is coming
back, kill him with the Cut Man Arm. After that you will have to beat a
character just like Mega Man, use the Elec Man arm and after finish
him with your normal ball!!
In the third stage, the boss is not that tough just use the Guts Man
arm and throw the four block at him and after finished your job
with your normal ball.
And the last stage you have to beat the four characters again, so
kill Boat Man with the Fireman arm, after kill Fire Man with the
iceman arm, after kill Iceman with the Elec Man arm, and after
kill Guts Man with the Boat Man arm. Next you will finally
have Dr. Wily in your face, so first of all use the Fire Man arm to
kill the plane, after when the plane is open just use the Cut Man
arm to finish Dr. Wily and after that, its over!!!! You have finished
Mega Man!! Use this trick and you will be happy to see the game
ending of Mega Man!!!
Do extra damage with the Cutman Blade or the Elecman Beam
To do extra damage with the Cutman Blade or the Elecman
Beam, pause the game as soon as a hit registers, then immediately
unpause. This will result in multiple hits. By pressing Start rapidly,
you can do a huge amount of damage with a single shot.
This can work against you if you've been hit by Cutman
or Elecman.

SXAZOO Start a game. Soon you won't be able to shoot to the right.
SXPZOO You can't shoot to the left.
SXGZOO The shooting is really messed up. It look's like you are
shooting twice, and it goes diagonally up. The top shoot is the real one.
