Line 23:
* [[Cloning Blues]]: Done in everybody's story mode, and can also be done ''literally''.
* [[Color-Coded Timestop|Color Coded Time Slow]]: Everything turns a shade of purple when time slows down.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Proto Man's (Clone) strategy is the same as in ''Mega Man 3'', jump around, and when he reaches the ground, shoot three times, repeat.
* [[Continuity Snarl]]: A few parts in this game seem to become this. Protoman says he has an unstable Nuclear Core, but this is in the first game, so it's actually an unstable ''solar'' core.
** Than again, this was supposed to be the be a retelling of the Classic ''[[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]]'' story per Keiji Inafune's design, so perhaps this was done on purpose.
Line 29:
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: If you defeat the Robot Masters as Mega Man [[Cherry Tapping|with]] ''[[Cherry Tapping|just]]'' [[Cherry Tapping|the Mega Buster]], Mega Man will bring the damaged, but still functional Master back home so Dr. Light can reprogram him. You can then play as them. Using any other weapon will destroy them.
* [[Downloadable Content]]: From Roll to her costumes.
** Proto Man was also made this for anyone who couldn't beat Challenge Mode.
* [[Easy Mode Mockery]]: You don't get to fight Wily Machine's second form in Easy Mode, nor do you get to see him beg for mercy. He simply flies away in his capsule, laughing out "[[Sequel Hook|Maybe next time!]]", and the regular stage clear theme plays instead of the game clear theme. The rest of the ending is unchanged, however.
* [[The End - or Is It?]]: Played almost completely straight in the ending, saying that Dr. Wily is ready to work for a peaceful tomorrow, but the ending says, "Or so it seems...", and given that he's feigned mercy several times in the original games...
Line 39:
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: The reason Time Man's such an arrogant prick is because of self-esteem issues involving his status as an unfinished robot.
** Protoman seems to have this as well. It's implied he ran away from home as Dr. Light activated him before fixing his power core. When he meets Time Man, he ain't happy Dr. Light pulled this again.
* [[Funny Schizophrenia]]: Iceman, when evil, seems to grapple with this. Normally, he's a dutiful military bot. When evil, a ''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Private]]'' part of him seems reluctant to fight you, but it's fought off by a more ''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|General]]'' refusal to deviate from the mission. [[General Ripper|Which mostly involves shooting you.]]
** Not just when he's evil, either way, he still has the split personality. Oddly, his [[Evil Counterpart]] doesn't seem to have this quirk.
* [[Fun Size]]: The art style of the robots.
* [[Genre Savvy]]: When
* [[Ham-to-Ham Combat]]: Fire Man VS Fire Man. FIRE! FIRE! REALLY COOKIN'! ON FIRE! FIRE!
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: Fire Man, obviously.
Line 48:
* [[Incest Is Relative]]: Well, Roll seems to have feelings for Mega. The conversation with her and her [[Evil Twin]] seems to show this.
{{quote|Copy Roll: How do you do, Original Roll? I bet you're worrying about your precious Mega. Ha ha ha...
Roll: What?! I... but t-that's not what I'm thinking at all!!
Copy Roll: You and I are one in the same. I know everything about you. It's OK, I'll tell him for you... or are you going to try and stop me...?
** And the [[Jive Turkey]] Oil Man gives us:
{{quote|Oil Man: [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|What's up Roll? If you came for a refill, you came to the right place]]!
Roll: [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|I don't need]] ''[[Does This Remind You of Anything?|THAT]]''[[Does This Remind You of Anything?|! And more importantly, your punishment for behaving like this is one week without oil!]]
** And then there's this line:
{{quote|Elec Man: Those eyes... they're so mesmerizing... even more than a million volts of electricity...}}
** Lets not forget this wonderful line from
{{quote|Iceman...This might be a little painful, but hang in there...}}
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: Several of the Robot Masters sentences usually have 3 or more puns.
Line 64:
** And Dr. Wily is rather large ham too.
* [[Leitmotif]]: The Fortress Boss tune becomes Wily's, although it's much slower and quieter.
* [[Let's Play]]: One is done by [[Azureblade 49]].
* [[Luke, You Are My Father]]: In Proto Man's story, he subtly implies he was indeed created (or at least modified) by Dr. Wily.
* [[Mirror Boss]]: The Copy Robot.
* [[The Nicknamer]]: The Copy Robot gives nicknames for everyone but Oil Man. It even calls Mega Man "Blue Bomber".
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Unsurprisingly, because it's a remake, it's not as hard as the first game, but it ''is'' still hard.
* [[Nostalgia Level]]: The game contains an Old Style Mode, which emulates the level design and gameplay with the ''Powered Up'' game engine as closely as possible, right down to the original NES soundtrack.
* [[Promoted to Unlockable]]: The other robots.
** You can also gain Mega Man's powers from later in the series, specifically unlocking Mega Man S(lide) and Mega Man C(harge)
* [[Psycho Electro]]: Elec Man has shades of this.
{{quote|Elec Man: Mmm... to watch my beautiful bolts fly to the top of your head... to hear your delightful shrieks...}}
** This applies even when he's the ''good'' guy. He sounds a bit ''too'' excited just before he fights Wily.
* [[Pyromaniac]]: [[Captain Obvious|Fire Man]]. Almost every single line he gives has "Fiiiiiire!" somewhere in it.
* [[Retraux]]: You can download scenery packs of the original NES stages for the Construction Packs, even NES versions of Time Man and Oil Man's stages
** Also, the bosses have a "Classic" difficulty setting for Challenge modes where their AI is made as similar as possible to their original NES counterparts. They also have the NES Boss music playing when fighting them, and the rooms between boss fights have the [[Call Forward|"Item Get" theme from ''Mega Man 2'']] playing in them.
* [[Revive Kills Zombie]]: Using the surfboard function of the Oil Slider delivers massive damage to CWU-O1P's bubble barrier.
** [[Fake Difficulty|Good luck hitting the thing with it, though; the shot goes nowhere but up underwater.]]
* [[Ridiculously-Human Robots]]: This ''is'' still a ''Mega Man'' game, you know.
* [[Rule of Cool]]: With the Oil Slider, you can jump on oil you've just shot, and it turns into your own surf board.
* [[Scarf of Asskicking]]: Proto Man again. Oil Man also has a scarf, and his dialogue with Proto Man has him bragging about both of them having scarves. An additional thing to note is that Oil Man's scarf is later used in the Archie Comics adaptation to hide the [[Uncle Tomfoolery]] concepts.
Line 90:
{{quote|Time Man: I am perfection.}}
* [[Stealth Pun]]: Ice Man has a bi''polar'' disorder...
** [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|Oil Man VS... anyone.]]
* [[The Stoic]]: If Guts Man is evil, he still retains a recognizable [[Dumb Muscle]] personality. However, if he resists Wily's programming, he's arguably the most calm and level headed of the robots. Of course, that won't stop him from pounding the opposition into the pavement.
* [[This Looks Like a Job For Aquaman|This Looks Like A Job For Oil Man]]: Every stage has been carefully redesigned so that all of the Robot Masters can pass them. There are even alternate paths created specifically for them to take in the eight main levels, most of them holding Construction Packs.
* [[Uncle Tomfoolery]]: Again, Oil Man.
* [[The Unintelligible]]: The Yellow Demon, who speaks in nothing but variations of "Bumomomomo!". Cut Man hilariously tries to speak to him in this way, only to get the demon angry, but since we never have any idea what was actually said, you might chalk this one up as a [[Noodle Incident]] variant.
* [[Warmup Boss]]: Incredulously, it's a [[King Mook]] version of the [[Boss in Mook Clothing]]. Irony!
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|What Kind of Lame Power is Shooting Oil Anyway?]]: You can shoot oil with the Oil Slider weapon... but you can only shoot one shot at a time, making the ability useless, also amping the difficulty for Oil Man's story [[Up to Eleven|up by 11]].
