Mega Man 8 (Saturn) - Mid-Way Stage: Duo

You can support both Mega Man AND me through Nexus: https://www.nexus.gg/megaquint
With the first 4 bosses down, Mega Man checks in on that robot he found in the intro stage, as well as inquiring Dr. Light on these purple objects that have been dropping from the Robot Masters that were defeated. After leaving the room, our guest wakes up and storms out, Mega Man giving chase. This leads us to a short stage that leads to Wily's new fortress.
But first, we have our first major console difference, as this stage features a surprise appearance of Cut Man, who is an optional boss fight. This fight is only in the Saturn version, as in the Playstation version there is just another Bolt for you to find. No real explanation is given for why he's here, but hey, anniversary title so why not have some old callbacks.
Anyway, after finding and fighting our runaway friend, he dashes off to Wily's Tower, Mega Man follows and is ambushed by another bot. With Mega Man in his grasps, Wily attempts to finish him off only for Mega Man to be rescued by our new friend. He introduces himself as Duo, and after subduing the other bot, explains to Mega Man what that purple energy is. It is simply called Evil Energy, the power source of that purple robot he was fighting in the intro cutscene, and Wily's got a whole bunch of it powering his robots now. So Mega Man and Duo must now work together to stop Wily from furthering misusing this energy. But first, we must take down the barrier around the Tower, and to do that, we must fight 4 more Robot Masters.
