UNLOCK THE CHEAT MODE
During game play type:
xstuff
If successful you will have all X armor,
all abilities (Cutter man's scissor throw, etc.) at maximum, all
four Energy Tanks filled, full health capacity, and all Bosses
completed except for the last three inside the Main Fortress.
E-TANK LOCATIONS
Flame Mammoth stage: Go until reaching the little opponents that throw the picks
at you. Instead of going to the exit, go up the platforms until
you reach the extra life. Dash left and jump to find an E-tank.
Storm Eagle stage: Go to the part just before the hover platforms. When you see
the opponent on the rising platform, kill it. Ride the platform
to the building in the air, and shoot through the glass.
Armored Armadillo stage: When you reach the first cliff with the miner machine, set
the machine off, climb the wall, and run to where the machine
started.
Spark Mandrill stage: You will need to get the Boomerang Cutters first. Go to where
you can climb a ladder up or down. Go down and destroy the defense
units. Do not go up the next ladder. Instead, equip your Boomerangs
and jump straight into the air and fire one. It will catch the
E- tank and return it to you.
DEFEATING HINTS AND PLAYING TIPS
Armored Armadillo: Shoot the Armored Armadillo with your electric spark
gun when he is vulnerable. It will electrocute him, all his armor
will fall off, and he will be much easier to kill.
Flame Mammoth: Get the Boomerang Cutter and go to Flame Mammoth's
stage. When you reach him, use the Bommerang Cutter on him. After
a few hits, his trunk will fall off, and he will not be able to
shoot out oil or change the conveyor belt's direction.
Launch Octopus: To get rid of Launch Octopus's Piranha "homing
missiles", use the Boomerang Cutter a few times to cut off
his arms.
Storm Eagle: Get the Dash Boots on Chill Penguin's level. Then,
go to Storm Eagle's level and proceed until you battle him. When
he is on foot, he might spit out mini-eagles at you or try to
blow you off the plane. When he spits the mini-eagles out, dodge
them with Dash, then destroy them. If he tries to blow you off
the plane, dash towards him and fire at him. Keep firing until
he flies back up. When he swoops down at you, keep dodging him.
Repeat this process until he is defeated.

GENERAL HINTS AND PLAYING TIPS
Get Upgraded X-Buster early: The Helmet, Boots, and some luck are required for this
trick. You usually get the Upgraded X-Buster from Zero, but you
can get it much earlier than that. In the Flaming Mammoth Stage,
there is a part where mine workers throw picks at you, and where
you get the heart and sub-tank. Before you enter there, there
is a small location that you can break with your helmet just at
the entrance of that room. With luck, you can reach the place
with your boots and break the blocks with your helmet. Then, climb
straight up to get it.
Extra lives in Armadillo stage: At the very beginning of Armored Armadillo's stage,
there is a cart that goes down for a short distance before leveling
out again. On the ceiling are a few places where the roof juts
out a bit. On each of these is a bat. On around the fifth one
is a small black ball that when you approach reveals itself to
be another bat, though you do not see these anywhere else. They
are actually visitors from some of the original Megaman
games. You cannot shoot them while they are in ball form. Wait
for them to start flying towards you. Also, these bats happen
to give you an extra life quite often, so this is a good place
to stock up.
Armor upgrade in Sting Chameleon
stage: Before you enter the tunnel with the falling rocks,
climb up the wall above it. There will be a green machine there.
Fight it. Note: Its weak point is the head. When you defeat it,
a capsule will appear from the ground. The armor upgrade will
be inside. Note: This will also stop the falling rocks in the
tunnel.
Energy Extender at Sting Chameleon
stage: Go to the place where the rocks fall from the roof.
Do not go in. There will be a hole there. Slide down it. On the
right side, there should be brown bricks. Jump from side to side
until they all break. When you are done breaking bricks, stand
there and dash forward before you are at the edge. If you make
it across, the Energy Extender should be there on a platform.
Energy Extender at Launch Octopus
stage: Go forward until you see a tornado-like thing that
goes up. It is blue in color. Get on one and you will go up out
of the ocean. If you do not see a ship with oil cans on it and
little flying robots that appear, keep going forward. If you see
more, go on them until you see a ship. It will be on the right
side. On the front of it is something that resembles a blue circle.
Shoot it with your fire until it starts smoking. Stay on it. It
will sink. Wait until it touches the bottom. You will fight a
metal snake. Defeat it and it will explode. When it is done exploding,
keep going to the right and the Energy Extender should be there.
