wow!

... I gues this means it's not coming to VC? T_T

I almost posted this earlier, but I wasn't sure if it was still a rumor. I'd personally rather have Chrono 3, but since that won't happen, I'll take anything I can, even though I already have this on SNES. Hopefully, Chrono Cross will get re-released too.

This is awesome news! I haven't played CT in about 6 years. Is it really rumored to come out this year? That'll just be icing on the cake.

Btw, first post. (Hi!)

Cool. Now I will be able to legally play a copy of Chrono Trigger.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #5 on:** July 02, 2008, 01:06:08 AM »

I haven't played this so I want to know what the fuss is about.I need to grab a DS.
Welcome w3stfa11. If you would like to introduce yourself. There is a thread in General Chat for such things.

I wonder if it will be like FFIII and FFIV where it is remade instead of ported.

I just kind of assumed that it would be, but thinking about it that would mean it's coming out years from now or Square Enix has been really good at preventing leaks.

I'm not going to even care until an english release is confirmed.

I'll probably buy it either way since I never played CT before.

Im glad it's DS and not GBA. I cant trust GBA ports after the kick to the nuts that Tales of Phantasia was.

TheFleece · « **Reply #12 on:** July 02, 2008, 06:45:20 AM »

I haven't played Chrono Trigger in years, I hope they just port the original and not release a complicated remake, sometimes 3d isn't the best way to present something and Chrono Trigger had great art that should be retained. *hopes*

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #13 on:** July 02, 2008, 10:02:21 AM »

I loved the original Chrono Trigger. I beat it over 3 times with the new game + feature, and because of that feature and the fun story, and game play that didn't really resort to grinding too much.

That said, I don't see myself revisiting the game again. Mainly because, I don't want to go through beating the game again without all my levels I earned and items I found. That being said...I never did get to beat the game on the two hardest times to beat the game. (The very beginning with just you and the girl, and that time you had to fight the cult and the final boss.)

What was the issue with ToP? All I noticed was that it was hard to tell whether something was enabled or disabled.

It would seem silly to release a 2D port when they have been remaking the 16 bit FFs...

That said, with this timeline, I can't help but think that all this is is a 2D port.

You know what? A straight port would actually be a-ok with me. I've played CT, but never beat it, and since this one has never been re-released for a system I own, I wouldn't mind getting the original with the awesome sprite art.

thats what she said, literally! (i think..)

i might think about buying this since its one of those games i missed out on that everyone raves about. I actually owned it second hand (not even sure where i got it from) but i couldnt get into it for some reason, so i gave it to my friend who was more into RPGs than i was at the time.

i'm sure he still has it but he's hard to get a hold of so i cant even borrow my own damn game. what do you guys think, should i try to get my game back from my friend, should i borrow vudu's and kill his battery ;-) or should i consider the DS release?

It seems FF13's bankruptcy crisis has kicked into high gear.

In order for Square to maintain funding and production on its "next-generation" Alamo, it has to pull out the Holy Grail of ports to feed off the hardcore for one last shot at financing their very own doom.

Oh, the lolz!!! (that was a cheap joke though...)
But yeah, back on topic, according to the press release, it will be an "enhanced" port so it should be 2D! YAY for that!

I suspect the whole theory and have for some time now. Does Square Enix have any real ideas for games? Just because the games are classic doesn't mean they have to be remade and considering FF's insane epicness it gets old and done faster than you can care. At least it's Chrono Trigger and not another FF remake.

Chozo Ghost · « **Reply #23 on:** July 03, 2008, 09:20:43 AM »

I'll buy this. I never actually played the original SNES Chrono Trigger, so this is completely new for me. Plus, the additional touches like the dual screens and extra dungeon sweeten the deal. Hopefully if this sells enough copies it will motivate SE to make a sequel for either the DS or the Wii.

And I really think we're due for Super Mario RPG to either be remade or sequelized. So everyone on this site better get this game, because the better this one sells the more likely Square-Enix will get off their asses and give us other stuff.

Mashiro · « **Reply #24 on:** July 03, 2008, 09:38:02 AM »

Well, CT already had a sequel, Crono Cross.

I dunno how I feel about another CT sequel. Unless they bring all the original main team members (aka "The Dream Team") back for another go at the series I would say its best to leave it alone . . . as Crono Cross did not live up to many peoples expectations.

I'm very curious if the extra dungeon will be "singing mountain" as it was never finished for the original title and it had awesome BG music and all ::fantasizes::
