Mega Man X, meanwhile, rejoins us as Mega Man Maverick Hunter X. Not content with that, Capcom's throwing in Mega Man Challenge 100 - a set of 100 different short stages and challenges to keep you interested - along with two new boss characters, and the ability to actually play as the boss robots in the main game, amusingly. Once you've made something, you can use the PSP's Wi-Fi feature to share it with friends, and its Download mode to grab user-made stuff off the 'net. On top of that, there'll be a level editor allowing you to design your own stages, and you'll unlock more level-ed options by collecting item packs in the main game. Nostalgic types can also listen to the original background audio if they prefer, while Capcom's also throwing in a mode that allows you to play through using the NES original's level configurations. The audio and video have been totally reworked - the levels are modified with new item locations, and new techniques for overcoming obstacles, while each of the eight boss battles will be preceded by a cut-scene - complete with voice acting. Mega Man, first, will be dubbed Mega Man Powered Up.

Capcom's planning to release redesigned versions of Mega Man (NES) and Mega Man X (SNES) on PlayStation Portable in early 2006 in the USA, and both will feature all sorts of new elements including voice acting and modified level designs, as well as individual new features.
