I remember first playing this game with the GameCube Demo Disc. I had so much fun with it and it convinced me to try the full game. I loved the fun, action packed gameplay with slow down, Mach Speed, etc. Definitely an underrated Capcom classic.
One of my favorite games ever an awesome action game that doesn't have a ton of special moves like DMC or OG GOW but still is quite fun especially using the the VFX powers. One of the few games I played on all the difficulties just to unlock all the characters and the nice touch of having "new" cutscenes with all the characters. And I would love an official PC version since it is still stuck on the GC and PS2.
I've got this on PS2. It is a pretty solid beat'em up game that has replay value with the other characters you unlock adding different challenges to the game. If the cartoon series was included with it, it would add more to the game as it gives more insight into what Joe's like as a character.
I remember trying this on the Gamecube via Gamefly back in the day. I was still a fan of Power Rangers at the time so I loved stuff like it. I loved the art style, the sense of humor, and the gameplay so much that I decided to buy it outright. And when you beat the game, you get the option to replay it as different characters! Viewtiful Joe is easily one of my favorite Capcom franchises ever and I would love to see this series brought back in some capacity. Even if it's something as simple as an HD collection, I would get it immediately.
