Viewtiful Joe

Get Infinite Viewtiful Points
At any of the Power Conductor Stations (two orbs on top of small towers that light
up when hit, the first you come to is in the sewers of the second episode.), stand
in the middle but closer to one than the other. Zoom in and kick to hit both
Towers, and the one you are closer to will light up before the other one. Kick again
(while still zoomed) to finish the chain and have the towers reset. If done
correctly, the conductors will not activate and the two bottom lights will be kicked
on, you will also get 100 Viewtiful points for the move. Repeat this process to
continually gain 100 points for as long as you want.

Defeating Gran Bruce:
When you first face Gran Bruce, quickly use Mach Speed and go all the way down
where Bruce recovers well first. He will try, and you need to use your Mach Speed
and run up and down around that area. He will then get tired. Start kicking and
punching him in Slow Motion or Mach Speed. He will then spit bombs out at you.
Run around again. He will then accidentally eat one. Hit him, and it will take a lot of
health from him. Keep doing this until you defeat him

Defeating King Charles the 3rd:
After you land an attack on him, he will turn into many bats. Jump up and hit as
many of the bats as you can. Each bat you hit will take some of his life away.

Defeating Rhino Davidson:
Start by Mach Speeding him and he will defend with his axe. Two things may
happen. He will either attack you or the axe will slip out of his hands, leaving him
open for attack. If he charges at you, jump out of the way and run into the fire he
left by for extra fire damage when you punch him. He should be dizzy from
smacking his head on the wall, so you can attack him. Repeat those steps to
defeat him.

Defeating the Boss with guns:
When you smash all of the axes, you will enter a door. Go through it and you will
battle a Boss with guns. When he fires a shot, switch to slow motion and punch his
bullets. Then, slow motion again and keep punching him.

Defeating the Boss with the ship steering wheel:
You will fact this opponent in Episode 4. You directly up to him. When he raises his
arms and jumps, use your Mach Speed. You will face the steering wheel. Quickly
use Slow Motion or Mach Speed to hurt him.

Episode 1: Defeating the helicopter Boss:
At the end of the first level when you fight the helicopter, go into Slow Motion and
jump onto it. When you are on top of it, keep punching the propeller and it will fall
to the ground.

Episode 2:
When you first start the episode, go in slow motion and the water will get big. It
will then fall on the switch. Then, run to get to the door

At the end of the second part of Episode 2, after you break the hole in the ceiling
with the bombs, you will enter a room with three lasers, enemies, and a big bomb.
Kill the enemies, then use turbo and keep hitting the bomb until you turn to fire.
When you are on fire, you will light the fuse of the bomb. Hit it to the end of the
room where the stone wall is located and let it explode. It may take two bombs to
destroy it.

Immediately before the end of the episode when you have to face King Charles
the 3rd, there are four Statues. Use your Mach Speed and punch them to light
them on fire. You will catch on fire and can punch the rest. You will get the key to
enter the room to face the Boss

In the second part of Episode 2, you will enter a room with two platforms that
shoot missiles out of them. Go into Slow Motion and kick these big missiles. They
will fly out into space and hit the space ships out there. Keep doing this until they
are all destroyed, then the door will open.

Episode 3: Shooting faster on your ship:
When you first start Episode 3 (2,000,000 Leagues Under The Sea), you will start
moving. Press R for Mach Speed and press A to shoot much faster.

Episode 3: Kill Harrier Jet faster:
When you go through everything in 2,000,000 Leagues Under The Sea you will
face a jet. Drop bombs on its roof and deflect the missiles back at the jet to kill it
faster.

Episode 4:
When in part two of Episode 4 (The Viewtiful Escape), you will have to slow down
time and hit some gears to stop them from moving. After that, there will be a
straight away and enemies will pop up. One will contain a pink juice (infinite VFX
power for a period of time). Some enemies will pop out. Start attacking them in
slow motion. When a target comes on them, kick them. All the other enemies will
get targets on them. Every time you hit one of them, you will get an extra 100
Viewtiful points.

Episode 5: Destroy the tank:
When you encounter the tank at the start of the episode, your punches and kicks
will not do much damage (not even in Slow Motion or Mach Speed). When it fires a
large bullet at you, go into Slow Motion and punch the bullet back at the tank. It
will not destroy it, but it will do damage to it.

Episode 7:
When Episode 7 starts, there are three switches. You must make all the lights on
each of these switches light up. A normal jump and Zoom In down kick will not
work. There are some robot enemies that are like platforms. Jump onto them then
jump off onto the platforms. Go as high as you can, then jump off them and do a
Zoom In downward kick. When you land, all the lights will light up and a cheese
burger will glow in the middle. After this, you will see a very short intermission
sequence that shows one of the switches being unlocked

Episode 7: Slot machine:
In part 2 of the episode, after you defeat the rose robot, you will not get a token
for the slot machine as usual. Instead, use Mach Speed and get the V to show up
then kick it. Do this until all three of the pictures are a V.

Some like it Red Hot, Part 2:
Jump up to the chandeliers ceiling then press B and jump. You will hit a switch and
it will knock down the other chandeliers within reach.

again and it should smash it the caution things that give out electricity.

Run faster in slow motion:
While in slow motion, hold R (Mach Speed) and you will be able to move faster.

Send missiles back at enemies:
Sometimes, enemies will fire missiles at you. Go into Slow Motion and punch or
kick the missiles. They will flash red, then go after the enemies.

Put out fire:
When you are on fire (not the Mach Speed fire), hold Mach Speed and it will go out
quickly.

Slots:
Once you defeat Two-Armed-Bandit, you get to play slots. Put on Slow Motion and
punch the slots to stop each wheel. If you stop it on Vs, you might get a Key. If
you stop it on Cheeseburgers, you will get a free life. If you stop it on V-Coins,
you will get the V-Coins. If you stop it on the Sun, you will get electrocuted.

Cause more damage:
When you are fighting normal enemies, use your slow motion power and zoom in
power at the same time. This will make your punches and kicks more powerful.

Slow falls:
When you jump off of something and begin to fall, start punching and kicking. This
will slow down your fall.

Bus jump:
In the Episode 2, you will have to jump on a speeding bus then jump on a ramp
and over a big gap. Before you go off the ramp, hold down L for slow motion. The
bus will gain more speed and will get over the gap.

Topless bar signs:
In Episode 2, you will see some billboards for topless bars. They have topless girls
on the with black stars over the middle of their chest.

See a Gamecube:

spit out garbage. In the garbage, you will see a Gamecube.

Joe's name:
At the end of Episode 5 when you have to fight the boss (Alastor), Joe still does
not know what he should call himself. Also, Alastor does not know Joe's name yet.
However, in the FMV sequence before the fight, Alastor will read the script that
tells about their plan, and the cover page is marked "Viewtiful Joe".

Quick Viewtifuls:
Use your Mach Speed and punch anything. You will get Viewtifuls that you can use
in the store.

VFX power effects on items:
Sometimes, your Mach Speed, Slow Motion, or Zoom In power will have effects on
items. If you are in Viewtiful mode and your Beam Watch is glowing a rainbow
color, it indicates one of you VFX powers will have a effect on an item

Very fast attacks:
To do a very fast attack, go into Zoom mode and hold R (Mach Speed). Then, hold
Kick and you will keep spinning, doing damage to everything that approaches.
When you hold Punch, you will start punching very fast and start moving forward.

Fuzzy screen:
When you use up all of your VFX power, you will turn back into regular Joe. When
you are regular Joe, the screen will be slightly fuzzy, like a old movie.

Another Silvia:
When you play as Silvia, all of the FMV sequences that had Joe and Silvia will not
have Silvia, but instead have a person that looks exactly like Silvia without glasses.

Comments:
When you die, you will hear a voice that says "Cut! Cut! Cut!".

When you pause the game during any episode, someone will say something.

Super Mario Bros. theme:
Make a bomb and do not let go of it. Joe will begin kicking it with his foot, while
whistling the first notes of the Super Mario Bros. theme.

When you have V-Bombs, hold Kick to pull one out, then keep holding Kick and he
will bounce the bomb and whistle the Mario song.

Special moves:
Red Hot Kick: The downward diagonal kick is both a great leaping attack and a
handy way to collect objects in the air. Use it repeatedly on dazed enemies to
keep them flying around at ground level, damaging each other.

Air Joe: A leaping punch-and-kick combination, the Air Joe is both handy and
stylish. Sometimes a plain old punch or kick in the air keeps you up there for too
long. The combo makes you an airborne threat instead.

Sliding: A sliding kick that carries you across the screen, the sliding attack is a
great way to link combos. You can attack from a distance and then be in position
to smack foes again when they return to earth.

Ukemi: Attacks that knock you off your feet do the most damage, generally, and
the Ukemi move heals your pain. As you fall backward, zoom in before you hit the
ground. Your damage will decrease and you will come up ready to fight.

VFX Turbo Charger: Arguably the best skill your money can buy, the Turbo
Charger doubles the rate at which your VFX Meter refills, keeping you in the action
longer. You will wonder how you ever got along without it.

Viewtiful Forever: While dodging an attack in Slow Motion, zoom in. You will strike
a pose, radiate energy, and do damage to everyone around you. It burns up a lot
of JFX.

Kill the Shark in under a minute:
To easily kill the shark simply hit it like hell whilst zoomed in when he is not
attacking and then when he attempts to eat you turn slow motion on and zoom in,
then simply spin kick whilst he is trying to eat you, and he won't be able to grab
you in his mouth and when this is happening you are kicking hell out of his life bar.

Listen to Hidden Tune:
When you're at an area with no enemies around, you can try out this neat (but
useless) trick. Take out a bomb and hold the kick button (the same button used to
take the bomb out). Joe will then juggle the bomb and whistle a part of the Mario
theme tune. If you jump up in the air and do the same thing, and Joe will whistle a
different part of the Mario tune. You have to listen closely to hear it.
