Originally due to be released concurrently with the GameCube and PlayStation 2 Collections, the Game Boy Advance version, which was to feature the five original Game Boy Mega Man games, had its release date pushed back several times, with no real explanation given. After rumors of development problems, and of the projects cancellation or transfer to Nintendo DS, the last release date given was February 15, 2006. But in January 2006, gamers contacting Capcom were told that the game had been placed on indefinite hold (many consider this to be equivalent to cancellation). Capcom also began issuing refund checks to those who had ordered MMAC GBA directly through their online store (unlike most other online game sellers, Capcom charges the full amount at the time of purchase for pre-orders which are combined with orders for available items). Around the same time, several retailers, such as GameStop, declared the game cancelled and issued refunds or store credits. As of January 25, 2006, some customers had received their checks (along with a letter from Capcom reiterating the indefinite hold status). Capcom confirmed on their US forums the game is not in production, mostly due to the costs involved in producing it and the declining support of the Game Boy Advance.

It sounds like the overall project was to expensive to carry on with after they made the Anniversary and the X collection for the US market. If the games were not Regional coded (to stop us from buying cheaper abroard) We could of had this game in Europe as the game was already released.
