Objective of the games[]
Mega Man 2: (from the instruction manual)
There are 8 stages of battle. Each stage is fought against robots, monsters, and other lowlifes. Mega Man can choose his robot opponent in stages 1-6, but ultimately he must face them all. He also chooses his weapons. you control Mega Man. After defeating each robot, you acquire the weapon that particular robot was using against you. You lose "life" bars when hit by an enemy or falling off a platform. If you use up all your "life" bars, the game is over. You win the game by advancing to stage 8 where you must fight and then defeat Dr. Wily.
Mega Man 3 follows the same pattern, having 7 stages instead of 8.
Mega Man 2[]
Mega Man 2
Story from the game's instruction manual: A vicious group of robots and other monsters led by maniacal Dr. Wily are out to seek and destroy Mega Man. You control Mega Man as he fights back against them. Dr. Wily must be destroyed — but first you must destroy his robots and other monsters before doing ultimate battle with the doctor himself.
Mega Man 3[]
Mega Man 3
Story from the game's instruction manual: Dr. Wily is back with an arsenal of robots so strong, so devasting, that the entire universe is in peril.
The robots are Snake Man (S), Gemini Man (G), Needle Man (N), Shadow Man (SH), Spark Man (SP), and Magnet Man (M). These Wily creations plus the other enemies he has unleashed have such power that only Mega Man can defeat them.
When you defeat all these enemies, it sets up a classic confrontation of epic proportions -- Dr. Wily in the guise of a giant robot against Mega Man! It is a fever-pitched battle where only one can survive!
