And Megaman is the one who destroys all the robots and ultimately puts Dr. Wily behind bars? And he is arrested because he has all of these illegal fighting robots? Balin (Balin) New member Username: Balin Post Number: 3905 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Monday, September 06, 2010 - 2:13 am:        Google has confirmed that ISH is correct, and Samurai hasn't been around in a while, so SPOILER Samurai776 (Samurai776) New member Username: Samurai776 Post Number: 37 Registered: 6-2010 Posted on Wednesday, November 03, 2010 - 9:46 pm:        Actually, the reasoning is that Dr. Wily is vulnerable to one of the weapons of the Robot Masters. Had he not used the Robot Masters, Mega Man would not have acquired the weapon, and thus would have had a much harder time defeating him. This effect is most apparent in Megaman 3.
