Hint: Dr. Wily's Fortress: Locating Dr. Wily:
Get BEAT the bird, and get to Dr. Wily's Fortress (last stage). When you fight Dr. Wily when he is in his spaceship, use BEAT. When he disappears, jump up and BEAT will fly around in a circle. That is where Dr. Wily will end up.

Hint: Protoman's Fortress: Defeating robots:
At the end of each level is a robot Boss. Get BEAT the bird and use it on the Bosses. When BEAT is in use, jump over the Boss when it gets near you.

Hint: Silent Mega Buster charging:
Whenever you charge up the Mega Buster, fire it at an enemy then immediately charge it up once again. Whenever you charge up the Mega Buster, keep it charged up then encounter something else for which it will make a different sound effect. Whenever you charge up the Mega Buster, keep it charged then encounter an enemy that will make a different sound effect. Any one of those three occurrences will then silence the Mega Buster's charging up sound effect. It will be silent and stay that way while still charged up until you release that shot and charge it again.
