Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble (known as Viewtiful Joe Scratch! in Japan) is a beat 'em up video game developed by Clover Studio and published by Capcom for the Nintendo DS.
Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble looks and plays similarly to Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2. However, the touchscreen is a key feature of the game's controls. It enables gamers to split the level in half as well as swap the top screen to the touchscreen and vice versa.

[edit] VFX powers and gameplay
In Double Trouble, there are now 6 extra bars of VFX instead of 5. The Mach Speed and Zoom VFX powers present in the other Viewtiful Joe games have been removed. In addition, players collect V-Tapes instead of V-Films. The VFX bar also seems to drain slightly faster than in other games.
- Slow - Slows down the action to do more damage and begin lock-on. This is Joe's trademark power and has been in the series since the beginning, way back in the original Viewtiful Joe.
- Split - Allows the player to split the screen horizontally and can be used to drop objects on enemies as well as to jump through walls.
- Scratch - Allows the player to shake the screen around to make random pieces of debris fall on dazed enemies.
- Slide - Switches the bottom screen with the top. Slide is similar to Zoom from the first 2 games, but it also gives access to another power, Touch.
- Touch - Can be used to remove small, normally indestructible enemies, such as bats, from gameplay or to flip or turn switches in the background.
