Tips/Codes

(1) Bullet Dodge- There are some instances in this game where you'll be bombarded with projectiles, such as the main defense room, the fourth stage of Skull Castle. In order to get out of these scenarios unscathed, hit the "start" button repeatedly when you're about to be hit. Any projectiles or attacks will travel right through you as you teleport in and out.

(2) One-Shot Kill- The Metal Blade is the most useful item in Mega Man 2, and it's the weapon of choice against more than one robot boss. However, its most devastating effect is against its own user, Metal Man. When you meet up with Metal Man again on stage five as part of the capsule room, you can use the Metal Blade to finish him off in one shot!

You can use this to finish off the robots in my order. This one will let you start with Air Man already defeated.

If you want, skip right to Skull Castle, with all of the weapons and Dr. Light's special items collected. Some energy tanks are thrown in, too.
