Do we have a 100% certainty that this release schedule will remain unchanged? This information is purely speculation that came from an unofficial hack of a game save which simply had them listed in that order. LanceHeart 01:08, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
There is confirmation that the release schedule will not remain the same as the order of the costume appearance in the game's listing. This confirmation is that Knight Roll, which was the first (or second) on the list, is being released in May, not January (or February...) The months of the release of each costume should remain "Unknown" until each costume is released.
Oh, and one last queston, how do you download Roll?
Why is this game called "Mega Man: Powered Up" on Wikipedia? It should be "Mega Man Powered Up", without the ":", according to the game itself and other sources, indicating it's the full title, not a subtitle or anything like that.

Note: Pictured here is the original Oil Man design, which resembled
blackface, an old racial stereotype from early American cartoons (he has overly large lips and black skin akin to racist propaganda of black people), and was given the nickname "Nigger Man" on various Internet discussion groups. As such, he was recolored for the international market; however, Japan retains the original design.

An evil genius who plans to conquer the world. He has kidnapped and reprogrammed many of Dr. Light's robots to make his goals a reality.
This seems somewhat "crufty" and exceptionally inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Perhaps a viable insertion in wikibooks might be warranted, but certainly cannot be allowed in the course of explaining the knowledgeable qualities of a remade video game. I've also taken the initiative to clean-up and elaborate on the gameplay section. As for the images, take a trip over to
Robot Master, oh in say, an hour or two to see what I'm doing with them. -

Since the release dates are starting to take up an insane amount of space, and considering that the schedule will extend for a projected year, should the download dates be put into a separate article altogether in order to remove the unnecessary length to the article?

Capcom are putting up an activator for Blues, and planning to release it February 23rd. -- Reploidof20xx (TALK) 01:06, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
The correct name of the game is Mega Man Powered Up. It doesn't have a colon as it's named on this Wikipedia article (See here: [1]). I'm going to move it maybe tomorrow. There's at least 30 articles that link to this article so it'll be a hefty job correcting every one. Just a heads up. - Throw 11:44, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
I have added to goofs to the game, these can prove vital to the gameplay and aid people with the information available, thank you. Dark Halen 2 ( talk) 19:01, 25 November 2007 (UTC)25th November 2007 Dark Halen 2 ( talk) 19:01, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
I think it should since it is done in other game areas, therefore it is acceptible Dark Halen 2 23:00, 2 December 2007 (UTC)2nd December Dark Halen 2 23:00, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Fair enough. Dark Halen 2 ( talk) 16:08, 8 December 2007 (UTC) 8th Dec Dark Halen 2 ( talk) 16:08, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
A quote from the current version's lead:
I think it's a bit much to count each stage's difficulty level as a whole new stage considering the only thing that changes is the way some enemies act or react. Same goes for saying each playable character's game should be considered a totally separate set of thirteen levels—that's like saying Super Mario Bros. 2 contains eighty levels because its twenty can be played with four characters. Jeff Silvers ( talk) 15:42, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone else think that this should redirect to the specific section on Mega Man Powered Up, rather than the main article on Mega Man 1?-- Unscented ( talk) 21:15, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, since no one seems to object, I guess I'll re-target it, then.-- 99.251.239.89 ( talk) 22:25, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
The article is pretty neat, even though some problems are holding it back (problems with the lead, WP:WORLDVIEW, potential WP:OR) If you have addressed all the issues, it should be good to go! AdrianGamer ( talk) 04:41, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
