Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble is the first VJ game I've played, and I got
hooked up immediately by the good gameplay and original style the game
offered. VJ:DT is not a long trip but this fun journey is action packed and
puzzle heavy. This guide is created for those who might have some trouble
solving the puzzles from time to time, although the objective of each
scene is pretty obvious and there are even hints provided on the screen.
Also note this:

THIS GUIDE CONTAINS SPOILERS.

This guide will try to stay away from telling the storyline. However being
a walkthrough, this guide will contain a lot of spoilers, especially when it
comes to tell you the goal(s) of particular scenes. 

Basic control and item descriptions can be found in the instruction booklet.
There are even tutorials about the control and items are pretty straight
forward, so this guide will not cover them. Note that the term 'Cheese
Burger' is used for all the hamburger-like items (such as Meals).

Try different combos when facing enemies. This guide will list only the
primary goals of each scene: collecting v-tapes and defeating enemies are
regarded as something you should be able to do without any help and not
mentioned specifically unless it is the current goal of the scene. This
guide will keep a record of the cumulated number of v-tapes shown at the
end of each scene as the game progresses.

You will gain a new VFX power SLIDE, followed by a tutorial. One thing about
the SLIDE is that the screen zooms in, and the top screen of DS is still
used as main screen. If you have trouble with zoomed-in screen, simply look
at the top screen. Aren't you glad that DS has two screens (quoted from Egg
Monster Hero DS)? heh.

magnet to pick up the car, then move it back so the magnet will be placed
above the hole in the ground. Move the magnet down a bit and stand on the
pile of tires so you can use SLIDE to separate the car and the magnet. If
you did this correctly, the car will be smashed and you will be able to get
the key inside. Move to the right.

=============================
== Boss Fight : Gadget-Cop ==
=============================

*Attacks*

1. He shouts "Double 3" and shoots three bullets, followed by another set of
   three bullets.
2. He jumps and kicks downwards diagonally.
3. He lifts his torso and shoots out rockets.
4. He spins his torso to swing his arms, jumps towards you then hit right
   before him.

*Strategy*

If you observe his patterns, you will find him easy to beat. Use V-DODGE
to dodge the bullets or the rockets. Just move around to avoid his drop
kick. When he stops and lifts up his torso, you will see the sign that says
'SLIDE' right before he shoots out the rockets. Use SLIDE then touch his
body(OK, this guide is officially PG-13 now...heh) to stun him, then he is
open to some free shots for a while. It is possible to use SPLIT to cut
open the water pipe in the background and short circuit him, in which case
he will get stunned and become immobile for a while. Simply avoid his
swings from attack 4 by staying away: you can't V-DODGE this attack. When
you beat him you will be able to proceed to the next episode.

===============================================================================

here this February (heh).

Scene 2: 34
Keep going right until the trap ceiling falls down and block the way. Go

level, jump onto the big pink box then make your way left. Use the ledges

again, then stop the wheel to get out.

---------

will fight yet another Battleroid. It shoots at you while flying, shoots out
a big bullet on the ground and spins around to hit you when you are close.

===============================
== Boss Fight : Killer Hands ==
===============================

*Attacks*

1. He pulls out cutters, charges at you then slices four times.
2. He pulls out a hammer and a sharp spring, jumps towards you then hits
   with the hammer.
3. He pulls out a hammer and a sharp spring, charges at you then hits with
   the spring four times.
4. He pulls out a hook, charges at you then slices two times.
5. He pulls out wings, floats then flies towards you.
6. He pulls out an electroshock device then throws short-range spark.
7. He pulls out a chain saw, aims with the skull mark at a distance then
   charges at you with a big swing.

*Strategy*

I had hard time deciding the sex of this boss and conctacted the voice
actor but he was not supposed to say about the character a lot. I will
contact Clover Studio some other time. Until that time this guide considers
Killer Hands male :D

Although this boss has a lot of tricks up his sleeve (very cheap pun
intended heh), he is easy to overcome. Just watch the top screen (or the
bottom screen, depending on the situation) and see what he prepares. After
dodging the attack, get close to him then start laying the punches of
justice on him. When you see the sign 'SLIDE,' get close to him then use
SLIDE then touch him to stun him. He is a fairly easy boss and you will have
no problem with him.


*The v-tape collection log in this episode is not perfect.*

is easier way. Taking care of the tanks first will make the job easier. Use
SPLIT at the end then move up to the ledge to proceed.

---------

3-7

Scene 1: 18
Defeat two bombers. You can use SLIDE then touch the dinosaur in the
background to stop it from breathing out fire, but it's quite easy to hit

Another Battleroid awaits. This time the Battleroid has two forms: it will
choose to transform between a tank and a human form. When it is a tank, it
shoots a bullet three times then charges at you. Use V-DODGE or simply jump.
When it is in human form, it hits right in front of it or jumps towards you
then takes a swing as it lands. Don't forget to collect v-points from the
green box in the background. A passage opens up upon defeating the
Battleroid.

---------

laser, jump onto the upper floor. You will see a hook and the sign that says
'SPLIT.' Use SPLIT to get the red jewel inside of the structure. If you want
to collect some v-tapes and v-points, keep going right and hit the pink box
in the mid-air. Come back to the place with hook, then SPLIT your way to the
left this time. Watch out for the laser. Use SPLIT again to pull the
platform on your left all the way to the middle of the screen then jump onto
it. Put the jewel into the hole on the machine there. Drop down to left and
use SPLIT, or double jump into the structure to get a blue jewel this time.
Get back to the place where you put the red jewel into the machine, then
make your way to the right using SPLIT. keep going right and you will see
another machine with a hole. Put the blue jewel into the hole and you will

you have to repeat the whole process.

---------

3-12

Scene 1: 37
Defeat 8 enemies.

Scene 2: 1
Use SLOW then uppercut one ship. Don't let go of SLOW, and while the ship is
in the middle of the air use SPLIT to stack it on top of the other ship. Get
on the pile of ships then reach the flag on the upper right part of the
screen.

---------
