New Viewtiful Joe games officially named

GCN News | Capcom names Joes for Gamecube, DS and PSP.
Capcom has unveiled new names for it's forthcoming GameCube, PlayStation Portable and Nintendo DS Viewtiful Joe games. The GameCube and PSP instalments, which were formerly known as Viewtiful Joe: Battle Carnival, will now be known as Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble. The DS version, a totally different game that utilises the touchscreen technology of the DS, has been named Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble.

Overnight reports had suggested that the new name for the GameCube and PSP versions was to be Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Man (Red Hot Man was to be the name for the very first Viewtiful Joe, before being changed at the last minute), though that won't be the case now.

Both games will be due out in PAL regions at some point early on in 2006, though Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble will be launching in Japan on September 29 on the PSP and GameCube. To take a look at the DS' Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble in action, head over to the Media Panel.

This is going to be a highlight in the DS library. I loved the original, and it looks like that won't change for the DS version.
