Clover did their best to convert Joe to the DS, but hardware limitations held this game allllll the way back from realizing its potential.

Slow VFX looks and feels like ass, Fast Forward VFX is replaced by a mechanic where the player scribbles on the DS screen to make random shit fall onto enemies and it's really lame.

It feels like a Viewtiful Joe game, and the presentation is still great but man what a tragedy Clover was never able to improve upon their handheld outings.
