Electricity (hazard)

Electricity is a recurring stage hazard in the Mega Man series., first appearing in Mega Man.

In Mega Man
In the original Mega Man, generators that fire out short beams of electricity appear in Elec Man's stage. The beams fire out horizontally and stretch out at a width of four blocks.

In ''Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge
In Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, Elec Man's stage once again features generators, but are changed slightly. Due to the Game Boy's smaller resolution compared to that of an NES, the electricity is made to extend out three blocks instead of four, and it is now possible for a generator to fire beams of electricity vertically in addition to horizontally.
