While the touch-screen stuff can get a little difficult when the action gets intense, the game makes good use of the DS’s unique abilities.
VJ is certainly impressive to look at, although the swing to a more puzzle-orientated play won't please everyone. [NGC]

First viewtiful joe game i played! not knowing the story i enjoyed it graphics was great, puzzle elements slowed me down a little but the boss fights and the unlockable moves kept me going, the final fight was not all that hard but i enjoyed the game! i recommend anyone who is curious about it give it a try.
Not a long game, but really fun! The only thing that holds it back is that there isnt much to do after you beat it out just to replay it on a harder difficulty and buy more moves that you couldn't get on your first play through.

The game's change in tempo may turn off some players, but don't be fooled. This is still the genuine Viewtiful Joe article, especially in the face of the somewhat limp GameCube Red Hot Rumble release.
Though flawed, it adds a handful of creative new elements to the basic mix, preventing it from being a callow rehash. There are better games for DS, but this one demonstrates moxie, technical brilliance and no lack of ambition.
Double Trouble is still undeniably a lot of fun - clever ideas, decent puzzles, and so on - but rather like the name, which seems to be struggling to fit the standard jokey Game Name: DS format, the end result isn't quite good enough.
Double Trouble, like previous games in the series, is a good 12-15 hours long on the first play through. However, this time repetition sets in far quicker than before with quite a few of the later levels becoming quite laborious for all but the most determined of gamers.
The result of meddling with Joe's mechanics is pure mediocrity. Though lefties will scream in frustration, the action is never bad, merely bland.
Gosh, what a bummer Viewtiful Joe slipped very hard in this one , it still have some great stuff on it, and has full use, the only bad thing is that it doesn't have to many replay value. Just a simple cool catridge.

Double Trouble sets itself apart from other Viewtiful Joe games by having a lot more interesting powers and abilities to use via the touch screen however in turn it lost a lot of its life and style that the other two games present itself so well in. When it comes down to it, Double Trouble feels more like a half hearted experiment of what could have been a good game, but just plays too much with the concepts rather than fix the gears to really make them work. Thus it made what could have been a fun experience rather average with a lot of the enemies and items being rather dull or too easy to actually beat.

Summary In Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble an action-movie hero's work is never done! During an on-location shoot of Captain Blue's latest movie, a new sinister group literally steals the show and it’s up to our not-so-average Joe to reclaim it. Using the Nintendo DS dual screens, gamers help Joe split the screen wide open to solve mind-boggling p...
