What are the differences between GC and PS2 port of Viewtiful Joe?

Question

I'm not able to find sufficient information about what the differences are between the PS2 port and the original GC version of Viewtiful Joe.

Can anyone give me a complete account of what has been changed in the PS2 port from the original? For example, I know that the graphics have been affected somewhat. In what way? I know there's a new difficulty added, which one is it? And is the original difficulty level still preserved? How does the control mapping to a PS2 pad work?

I just found this (<- click)

A user of this forum seems to have both versions and listed the pros:

Well, I've owned the GC version and I currently own the PS2 version.

GC pros:
Faster loading times
Smoother graphics/almost no slowdown

PS2 pros:
Extra playable character Dante
A new difficulty, "Sweet," it's the easiest difficulty in the game
Better unlockable music video

I hope you are still interested in the answer.
