Line 426:
** Also {{spoiler|Maverick Zero}}, according to, in Sigma's words, an "old man" (Possibly referring to {{spoiler|Dr. Wily}}).
{{quote|''"{{spoiler|Zero}} is the most powerful thing in the universe, {{spoiler|when purified by [[The Virus]].}}"''}}
* [[
* [[Platform Battle]]: A few bosses, most notably the rematch against Serges in ''X2'' (set on floating platforms above a bed of lethal spikes) as well as Gate's boss fight in ''X6'' (this time above [[Bottomless Pits]]).
* [[Platform Hell]]: Gate's stages in X6, which often approach [[I Wanna Be the Guy]] levels of frustration and difficulty.
Line 451:
* [[Real Time Weapon Change]]: Since the series started on the [[SNES]], the shoulder buttons were used as an alternative to pausing for the weapons.
* [[Recurring Boss]]: Dynamo, High Max, the Nightmare Police, and Vile.
* [[The Reveal]]: Zero's ''X4'' opening cutscene. {{spoiler|A silhouette of an old man (obviously [[Mega Man (video game)|Dr. Wily]]) lecturing Zero to destroy his nemesis,
* [[Rhino Rampage]]: Tunnel Rhino of ''X3''.
* [[Right-Hand-Cat]]: Sigma's first in-game appearance in X1 is in the final level, alongside a "pet" [[Big Badass Wolf|robotic wolf]] named Velguarder that serves as the level's first boss fight. Sigma implies that the player should be able to defeat it easily.
Line 602:
** However, Zero is still more or less the master of [[Screw Destiny]], since {{spoiler|Dr. Wily programmed him to be a weapon of mass destruction; technically, Zero is one, but he doesn't use his abilities for the evil purposes Wily wanted him to.}}
* [[You Can't Thwart Stage One]]: In X5, your initial defeat of Sigma is [[My Death Is Just the Beginning|part of his plan]], setting in motion a [[Colony Drop]]. You then spend most of the game building machines to prevent the crash — but no matter [[Luck-Based Mission|how good your luck is]], you can't stop it completely. What's more, the second thing you try may {{spoiler|turn Zero evil}}, and this was also part of Sigma's plan. (Even if Zero's okay, he and X will end up fighting, leaving just one hero to stop Sigma.)
* [[Your Princess Is in Another Castle]]: ''X8's'' {{spoiler|"Gateway" ([[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|never mind the title]]!)}} level is the standard
* [[You're Insane!]]: ''Maverick Hunter X'' has the titular Azure Hunter pointing out that Sigma has completely lost it to his subordinates. None of them deny it, but rather believe that Sigma, despite his insanity, [[Mechanical Evolution|has a good point]], and people would rather ignore it than deal with the implications.
