Magma Man Stage (マグママンステージ) is a stage in Mega Man 9 that takes place in a fortress covered in lava, as well as being the stage that Magma Man resides in.
Description[]
Magma Man Stage takes place in some kind of fortress or factory that has lava in just about every place, which makes it a hazardous stage that Mega Man must traverse, and there is one main gimmick, the "Magma Beams" that will fire a large beam of magma in patterns either down or sideways that will instantly kill Mega Man, though they can be hardened by Concrete Shot and only then can they also be destroyed by Laser Trident. Mega Man will start by dodging Popo Helis and Jump Rollers over lava before being introduced to the Magma Beams. He will go through a fairly large section of them and then fight the Changkey Dragon sub-boss. This sub-boss will fly in a wavy pattern across the screen while firing down at least 3 large Changkeys down on the ground that will dash towards Mega Man while leaving another large fire from where it was fired, though all of the Changkeys on the ground and on the Changkey Dragon's back can be sucked in by the Black Hole Bomb. After beating it, Mega Man will go through a small section filled with Fire Totems before going into the much larger section of Magma Beams ad making it to the boss door soon after.
- On Hero Mode, the Magma Beams seem to be slightly faster, which will also make different patterns between them, as well as a large increase in enemies, including the Classical Cannon which are now included in this stage.
- On Superhero Mode, there's an even greater increase in enemies, especially Fire Totems and Classical Cannons, and there is a single Camouflametall in place of a 1-UP.
