Defeating the Real Dr. Wiley
You will actually fight two Dr. Wiley's; The first one is a robot Dr. Wiley piloting a large crab-like robot. The second Dr. Wiley is the one this hint is concerned with.
First, you'll see a large robot body filling up the background. A blue robot head should rest on top. Fire Shadow Blade straight up to quickly defeat the robot head. Dr. Wiley should appear.
When the robot attempts to punch MegaMan, jump on to the hand. Then, jump to the small nearby platform. Jump off of the platform directly at Dr. Wiley and use Top Spin right at contact. A direct hit and the game is over -- you win!

Defeating Evil MegaMan
Evil MegaMan is the third boss in Dr. Wiley's fortress. Use Needle Man's weapon to win easily. There are 3 MegaMan clones shown, but only one is the one that can take damage.
Spike Guard
There is a way to survive touching spikes. If MegaMan gets hit by an enemy, he'll flash for a while. While flashing, nothing can hurt him, including spikes.
Super jump freeze and invincability
As you may know Mega Man 3 is a 1 player game, but
you can use the second players controler and hold right to jump realy high, another bonus to this is that if you hold right and go down a hole while you have an enemy on your screen you will appear to lose all life but jump out anyway and you will be invincible.THE DRAWBACK you are not invincible to spikes and you lose the advantage if you pick up any life. You can also stop most enimies in place by holding R, U, A on the second players controller.
