It's not clear why only these enemies are affected, or what this would have been used for. Scriver (Object ID 09, Pararoid ( 0B), Morgun ( 1F), Tiranos ( 3F), and Aclanda ( 5B) will be mirrored upside-down if their subID has the 80 bit set. It doesn't have a walking animation, so it just kinda floats to his position. If the Cannon Driver's subtype is set to 10, it will not fire any projectiles, but it will 'walk' after Mega Man X and try to reach his current X position. If the Mecha-Arm (Those arms that grab X in the intro stage and X-Hunter Stage 1, object ID 07) has its subtype set to 01, X will take damage when it lets go of him. The anchor sphere is the first to explode, followed by the connecting spheres.Ī video of the enemy in action can be seen here. Together, the orbs move in a wave-like motion in the direction of X. From the first orb, seven more orbs spawn downward. This uses the large weapon pickup as a placeholder graphic. If you get in it before them, they'll start shooting you! When they see you, they'll jump into the ride armor. You have to actually be out of the ride armor for these guys to load up and appear, so you'll have to typically do this on purpose. While this isn't actually an 'unused' enemy, the way the game lays out Wheel Gator's level, you won't usually see these guys. This does not apply to Mega Man X3 in that collection, as it is based on the CD-ROM versions of the game.

This option is also accessible in the Mega Man X Collection for PlayStation 2 and GameCube: after selecting X2 on the game select menu, hold the jump button (on SNES, B is by default the jump button) on the second controller. It doesn't change anything gameplay-wise, since it was a developer's tool. To access this test, hold B on Controller 2, then power the system on.
