Plug Man Stage (プラグマンステージ) is a large electrical chamber that the boss, Plug Man, resides in Mega Man 9.
Description[]
Plug Man Stage takes place in a large television factory filled with the main gimmick, Appearing Blocks, that have been in almost every classic Mega Man game since the first game. Mega Man will start by platforming over spikes while dodging Telly Xs and Smaplars before climbing up and getting to the first Appearing Block section. Going through that will lead Mega Man down to the other gimmick in this level, the Shadow Mega Mans that appear from the fuzzy television screens in the background of the level. If Mega Man passes through them, a Shadow Mega Man will appear and will constantly chase him until they die. They will be partially be introduced before the largest Appearing Block section comes, though after the section, there will be more trials with the Shadow Mega Mans before climbing up and playing another Appearing Block puzzle and fighting a Big Stomper before the boss gate.
- On Hero Mode, there are noticeably more Smaplars and the Appearing Blocks are in different, harder patterns for Mega Man to traverse through. The E-Tank in this stage is also placed on a high ledge after an Appearing Block section instead of between 2 fuzzy television screens.
- On Superhero Mode, there are even more Smaplars and the Telly Xs move much faster towards Mega Man. The E-Tank is now missing from this stage, and there are 2 Big Stompers instead of 1 at the end of the stage.
