Apparently, there's a hidden stage in Mega Man ZX Advent that pays homage to the Mega Man most of us grew up with. Well, it's not so much hidden as it is unlockable, as once you finish the game, this section unlocks. And, those with a keen eye will recognize the stage (cookie to the first who calls it).
Be warned, though, that the boss in the video is the boss of the main game, Mega Man ZX Advent proper.

Hmm... I definitely remember playing that stage, especially the spike-jump part, right after the boss, but I can't recall which stage it was.
Was it, by any chance, a Doc Robot stage from MM3?

It reminds me of Cutman's stage from the first Mega Man game...and the music reminds me of the intro stage in Mega Man ZX...

I concur with the first post...I seem to recall vaguely a boss stage in Megaman 3.
Woodman's stage has rabbits (with carrot missiles)and tigers (with U trajectory ball thingies). Flashman's stage is all blue for whatever reason that makes Rockman walk all slippery.
On a tangent, is it just me? Or Rockman 2 is really the most memorable Rockman game ever?

To unlock the third secret retro style stage, beat the regular ZX Advent mode on the hardest difficulty setting.
I enjoyed these extra stages a lot, as they offer basically everything that made the old Mega Man games fun.
A shame these elements aren't used anymore. Or rather, it's a shame that all characters became too mobile for this kind of stage design.

It is because of this video that I now plan on buying this game, if only to unlock the retro-goodness. XD

Poor guy keeps getting done in by the spikes. Someone should show the full thing, complete with the third stage and final boss.
