Best Innovation 2005

goodViewtiful Joe: Double Trouble

Published by Capcom
Developed by Clover Studios
Released October 20, 2005

Why we chose it: What would happen if Viewtiful Joe shrunk into handheld proportions? If the result is anything like Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble, then what happens is one of the year’s greatest innovations. Even though Double Trouble looks very similar to its console predecessors, the gameplay has transformed into a puzzle-focused formula that you simply must try to understand. Slide, Scratch, and Split the world around you in order to transform everything that thought was impossible, and realize that games can still surprise you in the most unexpected ways. Double Trouble earns the very special award of Biggest Innovation of 2005, and proves that with some games, it’s what’s on the inside that counts.

Runner-up:
Trauma Center: Under the Knife
Lost in Blue
