Official Viewtiful Joe DS discussion thread

Sorry to hear about ur sore knuckles?

The DS is a lot more powerful than the N64 in every area aside from polygons per second (about even). The CPU is essentially twice as fast, it can do far more with color, and it has far more texture memory. There's no reason a DS game can't look like a PSP game aside from polygon count really.

OK dude, I DON'T need my VJ thread derailed by a debate on DS vs PSP. Mmmmm, k? This is blatant bait right here. I dunno about "as good as PSP" but yes, VJ shows that the DS hardware can create very nice graphics. 'NUFF SAID.

when does this come out?

^^^^

IGN sez November 29

EB.com sez November 15

Which is right is anyone's guess.

I know, for reals. This + Mario Kart + Sonic Rush + Mario & Luigi + Animal Crossing, all hitting in a span of about half a month? It's madness... Awesome, awesome madness.

this came out today havent played with it much but seriously how come capcom/clover studios can make a game that looks this freaking good and all EA can do is make sub-N64 looking games

It's out? Holy crap!

Okay why is Nintendo allowing all these games to be jammed into the hoilidays all at the same time. Space some stuff out Nintendo.

Do they even have an early 2006 schedule for the DS?
