You can now store bombs without meter! See the video response below. To read more about this glitch go to http://shoryuken.com/f385/controlling-detonation-shocking-pink-271285/
Viewtiful Joe can control the exact time his Shocking Pink bomb will explode. To do so, perform QCB+hold any attack button. Once he taps the bomb on his foot, cancel into any super (without releasing the button you pressed for the QCB). Now, as long as you continue holding the button, the bomb will not explode. Releasing the button will detonate the bomb. This allows tricks like the throw follow-up shown here. The bomb will also explode as soon as your opponent hits you or if you switch characters in any way.

Actually since Joe has 950k HP, wouldn't that set him at average health? People think average is 1mil, but let's say that average is the overall HP of all the characters, you'll find that it comes closer 950k then it does to 1mil. But I can't really argue with the other three points. Though he has quite impressive mobility and cross up ability with his aerial S and his fM is one of the fastest overheads in the game (and can be covered nicely with the right assist).

Interesting...
I can already think of a few uses for this.

@TheMostEffectual My information comes from my own experiences with the game and playing Joe. I also frequent Shoryuken, if it matters. I know him well because he's my point character on my main team. He's not outright terrible or the worst in the game even, but it's hard to deny that he's relatively weak in comparison to the rest of the cast.

@LeftyHangsLower I concede to the fact that nearly every character dies in a DHC scaling reset combo, but it's a negative nonetheless if only due to things like chip damage which is a major killer paired with X-Factor. It doesn't matter if his health is more than Sentinel because Sentinel, plain and simple, is a much better character. His damage may be better than Wolverine's, but Wolverine's mix-up game and speed makes him absolutely devastating, especially with a good assist on his side.

@TheMostEffectual
Below average health doesn't mean anything when practically every character dies in one DHC glitched combo. Plus he has more health than Sentinel lol. His damage is way better than Wolverine's overall, where are you getting your information from? I can't argue with the fact that the range on his normals sucks, his normals are pretty bad. His st. L comes out in 4F though, making it one of the fastest in the game.

Looks neat to use, but it's a little hamhanded. Then again, Joe's L attacks aren't that great (Voomerang aside), so it might be cool.

@LeftyHangsLower Poor range, poor damage output, below average health, mediocre in X-Factor.. the list goes on.
There's just no real reason to pick him unless you just like Viewtiful Joe as a character. And from what I can tell that's very few people.

@Mariodoot
Why does he suck? :S I think he's really good and vastly underrated.
LeftyHangsLower 10 months ago
This is so cool! Too bad Joe sucks. :( What happens if you tag him out or DHC?
