No, GC first.

 

[Scalemail Ted]

yes and I quote:

Atsushi Inaba: The two are exactly the same. Regarding the simultaneous release, we didn't want to give preferential treatment to a particular platform.

timely exclusive then ..

for how long ?

 

[Scalemail Ted]

I hope it does well.

I was really hoping for a Co-op mode.

 

[Deku Tree]

Did Capcom ever promise co-op or was it just IGN?

timely exclusive then ..

for how long ?

EB has the game coming out the 18th of November for the GC, and the 7th of December for the PS2. But GameStop has them both coming out on the 23rd of November.

Placeholder dates?

Either way...Didn't Viewtiful Joe release, just a few months ago, on PS2 @ 19.99 and not do well?

I hope it finds its market as its an excllent game...though it could stand to be toned down a bit.

wait ... no co-op ?

does it have 2 player mode then ? ..

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Those must be placeholder dates, Inaba has been saying they would come out at the same time for months. And every print ad shows both versions together, you don't see that when one version is a timed exclusive.

Read that interview...its short and you'll learn alot.

IGN: The tag-team/switch system sounds like it would make for an ideal foundation for cooperative two-person play. Why the decision not to go in that direction?

Atsushi Inaba: We thought that the "Viewtiful Touch" alternate play would really make Viewtiful Joe 2 a lot more fun to play since both Joe and Silvia have their own unique special moves. There's a whole side of the game in which alternating between characters raises the player's effectiveness and efficiency.

[Spike]

Yes, the both launch at the same time.
