- Chekhov's Gunman: After the Phoenix stuns Mega Man, Proto Man returns just in time to destroy it.

- No Sidepaths, No Exploration, No Freedom: For the most part, all of the stages are straightforward with no alternate paths or hidden items. There is some variation in the Wily Stages, but those are very minor.
- Pinball Projectile: The Psychic Waves act this way, bouncing off of walls and other obstructions until they faze out or hit a target.
- Playing with Fire: By defeating Ember Man, Mega Man obtains the ability to fire a canister into the sky, which soon afterwards, explodes in a rain of embers.
- Sequel Hook: Mega Man has destroyed the Phoenix and escaped thanks to the help of Proto Man and the unidentified blue robot. But, who was that latter robot, and why did he decide to help Mega Man after battling him several times before?
- Shock and Awe: Jolt Man fires beams of electricity as his primary attack. Mega Man obtains this ability after defeating him.
- Spread Shot: The Feather Shot fires a spread of three feathers in the direction Mega Man is facing. Up to 3 volleys can be on-screen at once.
- Suspicious Video-Game Generosity: All of the cannons on the final train will always drop a large life energy pickup upon destruction.
- Teleport Gun: The Warp Shot allows Mega Man to teleport to the location where the shot impacted a wall or barrier.note If the projectile hits an enemy, no teleportation will occur.
- Time Bomb: The Sludge Bomb will pin to walls and explode after a short delay. However, if it connects with an enemy while still in transit, it'll explode immediately.
- Warm-Up Boss: The intro stage boss is a souped up Stomper. The only difference between it and normal Stompers is that it has a larger health pool and a slightly faster attack rate.
