  • a side-scrolling platform video game developed and published by Capcom in 2006 for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) handheld game console. - This sentence is too long. Break it down into: "a side-scrolling platform video game developed and published by Capcom", and "It was released for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) handheld game console in March 2006".
  • Powered Up was designed by series mainstay Keiji Inafune - He is listed under the producer field instead of the designer field in the info box
  • and announced for a US release later in the year - not really needed.
  • but a US release did not occur due to technical difficulties - not only US, but also other western regions like Europe etc.
    Can't find anything about European release. It's possible one wasn't planned from the get-go. GamerPro64 04:09, 24 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • You need to mention the game's critical reception in the lead.
  • the latter two which were added for the remake). - "which" is not needed. I don't think a plot section needs this actually. It can be put in the development section or the gameplay section instead.
  • "The concept for these designs was 'toys'. We wanted cute designs geared towards little kids ... the kinds of characters that you'd see hanging off of keychains and such," and "Not only that, I made sure to tell the designers not to skimp on any of the original Mega Man details. We wanted their proportions and movements to be accurately reflected in these designs as well."
  • I am not sure why we need that much information on the game's pre-release reception.
  • though it sold better in the US. - Do we have any sales information for Europe?
  • noted that those who don't like the art style would be able to get over it after playing - Did he mention why? Also, use "do not" per WP:CONTRACTION
    No he didn't mention why. And also changed "don't" to "do not". GamerPro64 01:46, 30 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Detroit Free Press called it "a must-buy for fans of the long-running series, despite its super cute-ified new look." - Detroit Free Press should be in italic
  • placed "Powered Up" as the seventh best handheld game of 2006 - Should not use quotation marks. It should be in italic.
