Supposedly, it's going to be a PSP UMD containing Mega Man Powered Up & Mega Man Maverick Hunter X. I'm surprised modern-day Capcom would do this especially with how they treated the franchise recently (The MML series, MHX, and MMPU were all Inafune's personal favorites). I have mixed thoughts at the moment. I don't know if I should break the boycott and help support the Mega Man franchise (and get a cheap used PSP while I'm at it), or if I should skip it and continue my strict boycott of the otherwise crappy company. I wished they released the Dual Pack before Inafune left Capcom, or at least before Mega Man Legends 3 got cancelled.

Didn't you hear the news? Capcom is killing their blue mascot like some other company we know....whose initials are S.E.G.A

At least Powered Up has a level editor. Wish Mario had something like that (official, not a hack).

I'm glad Capcom is giving these games a second chance. I had a hard time finding Maverick Hunter X in stores, so I'll definitely pick this up when it comes out. But wait a minute... I thought the PSP was dead in the US?

I didn't realize Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations meant Sega was killing their mascot...

If Sonic's not dead after his treatment over the past ten years, I think he'll live forever.

Soooooooooooo ... to appease us, they're going to repackage two old PSP remakes together and sell it to us?

Stay classy, Capcom. Lord knows what I'd do if I wasn't able to buy either of these games for the fourth or fifth time.

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.

What? It's not even the Super or Arcade Editions?

Come on, Capcom!

That is surprising.
My local Best Buy took a few years to sell out of Powered Up and they still have Maverick Hunter X in stock at $14.99 (same as GameStop's projected price for the Dual Pack).

I guess Capcom figures that even if people apparently don't want to pay that much for each of the games, they'll pay it for both?

Wait a few weeks and buy it used. Capcom won't make any money off you if you do that.

But he has no control over if someone else buys it new, so he might as well.

If the sales of this pathetic cash-in have any affect on Mega Man's future, maybe he is better off retired.

Possibly, yes. But honestly, if people want Mega Man to continue on, then they're really going to need to buy the games, new. Otherwise it's just not worth Capcom's time.

@Waltz; Considering the creator left and they cancelled a couple of games, is there any doubt left that they don't think Mega Man is worth their time?
