In the year 200X, the robot Rock, a project by Dr. Thomas Light, was created. What followed in the series was a close sister named Roll, along with eight (six in the original) industrial brothers. It was an age where humans live side-by-side with robots. However, Dr. Light's rival, Dr. Wily, revolted and took Light's creations for himself, leaving the "useless" robots Rock and Roll. He reprogrammed those robots and used them in a robotic army to take over the world. Just when things looked bleak, Rock volunteered to be converted into a fighting robot. In this form, he became known as Mega Man.

Mega Man went after his brothers, though it was painful for him to fight them. He managed to only deactivate them, rather than destroying them. Dr. Light repaired them erasing the evil programming. When Dr. Wily's stronghold was discovered, Mega Man penetrated its defenses. He was surprised to see his brothers again, but he realized that they were clones once he had reached the Copy Robot. He had to face many powerful creations, but Mega Man still triumphed. He had reached Dr. Wily and had destroyed his Wily Machine. Wily begged for mercy, and Mega Man gave it. Because of his efforts, the world was at peace.

Just when everyone thought they could live in peace and that an age of prosperity had dawned upon them, Dr. Wily revealed that he had built a new fortress and an army of robotic henchmen, led by eight new Robot Masters of his design. He unleashed them on the world for revenge against Mega Man. Once again, the populace called on Mega Man to stop the chaos before the world was engulfed in the flames of destruction.

Mega Man crushed the eight Robot Masters and then set out to Wily's new fortress, where he had to face more creations and Wily. In the final fight, Wily morphed into an alien, but Mega Man discovered that it was a hologram. Mega Man let Wily go. Mega Man took a long walk to think things through, and later returned home.
