This one will probably be good on both handhelds. PSP will have some better graphics, but its refresh rate might make it not look quite as smooth.

I'm just glad that developers are indeed taking advantage of the DS touch screen by making two different games. Hopefully more developers will take that trend so the DS has software that boasts the touchiness.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

i'm just glad to see that nintendo ds is going to be getting some decent games soon.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

I'm forward to both games. Fighting with Viewtiful Joe style attacks will be simply awesome. And the 'Touch Components' for the DS title will be fun and ingeniously innovative.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

both games look and sound cool

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

i never really got into Viewtiful Joe... but since I have a PSP I might as well try it out.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

Viewtiful Joe is so awesome. Definitely looking forward to it.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

ooh, awesome... top screen zooms, bottom screen still... this game will rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

cool........

I kinda am looking forward to the DS version first off over the PSP version due to the touch screen.

Both will be great I'm sure

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

so what is the touch screen gunna do on this game? you poke what enemy you want to fight?

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

Apparently you scratch different indicated areas on the screen, and Joe will fighting accordingly.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

:hmm: ok, a pointless feature just trying to force touch screen onto a game. thankfully its an option tho, and i can still press buttons. :)

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

Yeah, I'm also more looking forward to the DS version over the PSP/Cube versions because I prefer side scrolling platformer over a fighting game.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

cubes getting a fighting game version also?

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

Yeah, it's coming to Cube as well.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

I'm sure there's more than just that feature.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

hope not. i want my side scroller to use buttons, like it always has. why would i want to take my fingers off the buttons to use a touch screen? As i've been saying theres some games that could take quite an advantage of a touch screen, theres others tho it just seems like they're forcing it onto the game just to promote the system. that i dont like.

Re: Viewtiful DS and PSP
 

Ah there is more than just this....

"One of the touch-screen moves is called the "split VFX," which divides the screen into two halves. This is accomplished when players pass their finger horizontally across the screen. The move causes objects on the screen to get "sliced" and become horizontally displaced. For example, players can use the split VFX to slice a large billboard on the screen, and then drop it on top of an enemy half a screen away.

The bottom screen will be used for playing the game, while the upper screen zooms in on areas of the game where users are recommended to use the touch-sensitive capabilities. At other times, the upper screen appears to zoom in on Joe. "

I guess it's not just about the touch screen abilities, but having the additional screen changes the experience somewhat.

I'll wait and see how the touch screen works with the game. Maybe some mini games would be cool 2
