Introduction
The following is a pretty in-depth explanation of the Mega Man timeline. I plan to expand this one day for other Mega Man games but in the blog's current state its pretty WIP.
How placements are decided
The Classic Mega Man series release order seems to be usually chronological, but then random games will come in and cause some confusion, so the placements will be based off which mainline title they take place around. This will also be decided with the Robot Masters/characters that show up.
Classic Timeline
Up to Mega Man 5
Mega Man/Mega Man Powered Up
We have the beginning of it all, Mega Man/Mega Man Powered Up, it marks the beginning of Wily's exploits and marks the beginning of Mega Man becoming a super fighting robot.
Mega Man 2
Just a direct sequel to Mega Man, Dr. Wily makes 8 robot masters to battle Mega Man.
Mega Man 3
Mega Man 3 has Wily and Dr. Light work together on something but then robots run amok and are messing with planets where they're mining for material[1], with it being revealed that Wily just did this to steal Gamma, the robot he and Dr. Light were working on, this game also introduces Break Man, who is revealed to be Proto Man the brother of Mega Man.
Mega Man 4
