After ''[[
Just when people forgot all about Dr. Wily, robots all over the world began going crazy. It soon became apparent that these robots were those created by Dr. Light. As phone calls came pouring in to Light Labs, Dr. Wily interrupted all television programs to announce that these robotic riots were not his doing. He then continued to show video evidence that proved Dr. Light's involvement in the recent violent outbreaks. To make matters worse, Wily gave the account number to his personal bank account and announced that he would accept donations to build his own robot army to counter that of Light. Mega Man quickly volunteered to clear Light's name and was sent out to investigate the source of the problem.
Robot Masters:
* DLN-065: Concrete Man, weak to Laser Trident, gives [[Dishing Out Dirt|Concrete Shot]].
* DLN-066: Tornado Man, weak to Plug Ball, gives [[Blow You Away|Tornado Blow]].
* DLN-067: Splash Woman, weak to Hornet Chaser, gives the [[Laser Blade|Laser]] [[Prongs of Poseidon|Trident]].

* [[American Kirby Is Hardcore]]: Spoofed [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091214044543/megaman/images/thumb/2/22/Mm9_boxart.jpg/377px-Mm9_boxart.jpg here] with the virtual box art created in homage to the first two games.
* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: The most expensive item in the shop, at 200 screws, is an alternate outfit for Roll (who's not even playable this time), changing her into her ''[[
* [[Charged Attack]]: While the Mega Buster is no longer this, the Magma Bazooka is.
* [[Chest Monster]]: The Met-like enemies disguised as 1-Ups.
* [[Downloadable Content|DLC]]
* [[Dual Boss]]: Thought the Yellow/Green Devils from previous games were tough? Enjoy fighting two at the same time...
* [[No Name Given]]:
* [[Overly Long Gag]]:
{{quote|
* [[Promoted to Playable]]: Proto Man, via DLC. Unlike Mega Man, he retains his charged buster and slide ability, and can block projectiles with his shield (while jumping). The tradeoff is that [[Glass Cannon|he takes considerably more damage than Mega]] and has a greater [[Knockback]]. He also can't access the store to buy items.
* [[Self-Imposed Challenge]]: Several of the achievements are this. Want to try beating the game without using any [[Minimalist Run|special weapons]]? How about without shooting anything [[Pacifist Run|except bosses and mini-bosses]]? [[No Casualties Run|Without dying]]? ''[[No Damage Run|Without getting hit]]''??
** If you thought the regular game was too easy, there are two extra difficulty levels available via DLC; "[[Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels|Hero Mode]]", and if that's still not enough, "[[Harder Than Hard|Superhero Mode]]".
* [[Shout-Out]]: The yellow fish that Splash Woman summons are based on Flounder from ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'', which is convenient as Capcom made the NES and GameBoy games for the film.
* [[
* [[Tyrannosaurus Rex]]: The Wily Machine this time around is roughly based on one.
* [[Visual Pun]]: Tornado Man has a ''helicopter''-[[Blade Below the Shoulder]].▼
* [[Utility Weapon]]: A few in this game:
** The [[Bee
** The Concrete Shot creates a cement block that can be then used as a stepping stone.
** The [[Blow You Away|Tornado Blow]] enables you to jump higher while the wind is in effect.
▲* [[Visual Pun]]: Tornado Man has a ''helicopter''-[[Blade Below the Shoulder]].
* [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?]]: Part of the plot explores this a little bit. This game reveals to us that, by law, robots are assigned an expiration date, at which time they are to be disposed of and scrapped. Dr. Wily took advantage of this by convincing Dr. Light's recently-expired robots to allow him to "fix" them so they can live on. Despite his ulterior motives, [[Jerkass Has a Point|Wily still made a compelling argument]].
* [[Wrathful Wasps]]: Hornet Man is a goodhearted beekeeping robot and a friendly creation of Dr. Light's, but goes on a rampage thanks to Dr. Wily manipulating him and his siblings into villainy. And thanks to the bee robots he shoots at the player, he's quite the tough adversary.
