When you start up the game, you can choose to play the Normal version of the game, or the Difficult version. In the Difficult version of the game, many enemies have twice as much health, and special weapons do half as much damage against the Robot Masters. In the Japanese version of the game, you are not given this choice, and the only available version of the game corresponds to the Difficult version.

The first part of the game can be beaten in any order, but the one below is recommended, as every Robot Master is weak to the previous Master's main weapon. The Wily Fortress is the final stage after beating all eight Robot Masters, and is comprised of five stages. If you're playing the [[NES]] version, simply select Normal (enemies take an average amount of damage to destroy) or Difficult (enemies take twice the amount of damage to destroy). For [[Mega Man Anniversary Collection]] players, select New Game and then Mega Man 2, where you'll then have to select Normal or Difficult mode. After beating each Robot Master you are given a password to load at that point in time when you want to (or the game will auto-save in the Anniversary Collection).


Once the game begins, you are presented with the Robot Master selection screen. To choose which Robot Master you would like to challenge, press the direction pad in any of the eight directions that the desired Robot Master is located. To select a stage, press {{nes|A}} or {{nes|Start}}.
== Quick Walkthrough (Weaknesses) ==
=== Stage Select ===
* Metal Man (use ''Plasma Cannon'')
* Flash Man (use ''Metal Blade'')
* Bubble Man (use ''Metal Blade'')
* Wood Man (use ''Crash Bomber'')
* Air Man (use ''Leaf Shield'')
* Heat Man (use ''Bubble Lead'')
* Crash Man (use ''Air Shooter'')
* Quick Man (use ''Time Stopper'' then ''Plasma Cannon'')

Over the course of the game, Mega Man will fight eight Robot Masters in their own habitat, in an order of his choosing. After defeating all of the Robot Masters, he must launch an assault on Dr. Wily's Skull Fortress, which is broken into six stages.
* Pico Pico (use ''Bubble Lead'')
* Guts Tank (use ''Quick Boomerang'')
* BubBeam Trap (use ''Crash Bomb'')
* Dr. Wily - Phase I (use ''Crash Bomb'' or ''Atomic Fire'')
* Dr. Wily - Phase II (use ''Crash Bomb'')
* Dr. Wily - Phase III (use ''Bubble Lead'')


The first eight stages (Robot Masters) can be attacked in any order:
=== Robot Masters ===

*[[Mega Man 2/Air Man|Air Man]]
|[[../Bubble Man/]]
*[[Mega Man 2/Crash Man|Crash Man]]

The trick to choosing which order to tackle them in is understanding that every Robot Master has a particular weakness to another Robot Master's weapon. If you are playing the game for the first time and do not wish to have this strategy spoiled for you, the walkthrough will not reveal a Robot Master's weakness unless you choose to view it. The first time you play, you will not have any idea which robot to start with, and which robot to visit next. The best strategy is to try every weapon available to you when you arrive at the fight with a boss, and make note of the weapons which do the most damage to that boss. Then try playing the game again with the knowledge you've acquired until you determine the most effective order to take on each stage. The [[../Table of Contents/]] lists the robots in alphabetical order rather than a suggested order for fighting them.

There are a couple of different ways to proceed through the game, depending on your preference of starting Robot Master. Certain paths make it easier to collect helpful items than others, due to the order in which you collect the Transport Items. For example, Heat Man's stage is considerably more difficult without Item-2, so you may wish to defeat Air Man prior to challenging Heat Man.
; Strategy 1: Go after Air Man first so that you have Item 2 to bypass the difficult portion of Heat Man's stage.
# Air Man (use ''Mega Buster'', win ''Item-2'')
# Crash Man (use ''Air Shooter'')
# Flash Man (use ''Crash Bomber'', win ''Item-3'')
# Quick Man (use ''Time Stopper'' then ''Mega Buster'')
# Metal Man (use ''Quick Boomerang'')
# Bubble Man (use ''Metal Blade'')
# Heat Man (use ''Bubble Lead'', win ''Item-1'')
# Wood Man (use ''Atomic Fire'')
; Strategy 2: Take on Metal Man first so that you have the useful Metal Blade weapon early on in the game.
# Metal Man (use ''Mega Buster'')
# Bubble Man (use ''Metal Blade'')
# Flash Man (use ''Metal Blade'', win ''Item-3'')
# Quick Man (use ''Time Stopper'' then ''Atomic Fire'')
# Air Man (use ''Quick Boomerang'', win ''Item-2'')
# Crash Man (use ''Air Shooter'')
# Heat Man (use ''Bubble Lead'', win ''Item-1'')
# Wood Man (use ''Atomic Fire'')
; Strategy 3: An advanced strategy for those who like a challenge.
# Heat Man (use ''Mega Buster'', win ''Item-1'')
# Wood Man (use ''Atomic Fire'')
# Air Man (use ''Leaf Shield'', win ''Item-2'')
# Crash Man (use ''Air Shooter'')
# Flash Man (use ''Crash Bomber'', win ''Item-3'')
# Quick Man (use ''Time Stopper'' then ''Atomic Fire'')
# Metal Man (use ''Quick Boomerang'')
# Bubble Man (use ''Metal Blade'')
;Fortress
* Mecha Dragon (Stage 1, use ''Quick Boomerang'')
* Pico Pico (Stage 2, use ''Bubble Lead'')
* Guts Tank (Stage 3, use ''Quick Boomerang'')
* BubBeam Trap (Stage 4, use ''Crash Bomb'')
* Dr. Wily, phase I (Stage 5, use ''Atomic Fire'' or ''Crash Bomb'')
