Capcom unveils upcoming PSN slate

Classics Collections, Mega Man remakes go downloadable for PSP; more Resident Evil and Dino Crisis PlayStation originals headed for online store.

171 Comments

Although Sony updated its download library with several new titles six days ago, some might believe the online service still lacks enough titles to support the imminent October 1 launch of its UMD-less portable, the PSP Go. However, Capcom today announced it will help Sony augment its library selection with a slate of 10 titles confirmed for re-release on the PlayStation Network.

Fun fact: Captain Commando actually got his start in an excessively brutal black ops division of the fashion police. Pink is a fashion no-no.

The influx of Capcom titles begins tomorrow with the release of Capcom Classics Collection Remixed a compilation featuring Bionic Commando, 1941: Counter Attack, Magic Sword, Strider, and more than a dozen other titles. Capcom's other arcade archival bundle, Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded will follow at an undetermined date with a lineup, including Street Fighter II, King of Dragons, and Knights of the Round. Five other PSP games will also soon be joining the ranks of the downloadable, including Mega Man iterations Powered Up and Maverick Hunter X, as well as Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max.

Capcom is also planning to pad out its offerings of original PlayStation games downloadable for the PSP or the PlayStation 3 with Dino Crisis, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis set for Sony's online store. Meanwhile, Capcom promises to bring "one of Japan's most popular animes" to the PSN this summer with the release of the downloadable exclusive Fate/Unlimited Codes.

List of Capcom's upcoming PSN uploads:

Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded--PSP
Capcom Classics Collection Remixed--PSP
Darkstalkers--PSP
Dino Crisis--PSP, PS3
Mega Man Maverick Hunter X--PSP
Mega Man Powered Up--PSP
Power Stone Collection--PSP
Resident Evil 2--PSP, PS3
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis--PSP, PS3
Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max--PSP

each of the the CAPCOM COLLECTION look like a great deal, though I'm assuming they'll be $10 each; if so I'm all over that

kind of late on the RE games, they might have had a better chance selling months ago, now the RE Archives are showing up on the Wii, which are the better remakes of the RE games, so yeah, kind of late to release the RE games on PSN... but better late than never I guess anyhow, this is going to vastly enhance the games available on the PS1 classics, which is good because that library needs some growing, and I hope this helps Capcom's profits and other companies follow suit as well and start adding their PS1 games to the PS1 classics

@ShockG707: I'd say they'd be more popular and better suit the PSP, so they're focusing on that instead. It's not too complicated, really.

Why is there so many exclusive psp games being released by Capcom.. Couldn't they have been for both systems? Its not like the PS3 is incapable of playing them..

Yay, gonna skip on RE1 cuz I wanna get the GC remake, but can't wait to finally play RE2 on my PSP. Is RE3 any good?? P.S. - Don't think you can do "animes", "anime" = mass noun, no "s", makes you sound stupid as hell.

I think with some changes in how PS2 games play on PS3, select PS2 titles could be put on PSN.

I might just get a PSP to play the Resident Evil games, I mean, I think they're games I'd like to play in it. Plus it's just an excuse to finally get one.
