Maybe it's time to buy that DS then?

[Kevinroc]

If you don't have a DS by this point, I have to ask what the hold up is. It's really a great system with a number of games worth owning.

[Mike Pothier]

You mean, yet ANOTHER reason to own a DS.

Time for a Homer Simpson WOO HOO.

I never did play Chrono Trigger on SNES or the PSX port. I'll pick up the DS version

[Xero Kaiser]

If this is getting a FF-style remake, then cool. If they're going to try and charge me $30-$40 for a straight port of a 13 year old game, then S-E can kiss both sides of my ass

They're apparently remaking the entire SNES line of Dragon Warrior games. I think they're doing it with the Final Fantasys too. a remake of Chrono Trigger is a given, considering it's arguably the best RPG of all time.

If it is just a port though, I'm gonna be mad. I already own a port of Chrono Trigger. Not that I won't still get it, because I'm hopeless, and truely believe they'll make a decent sequel to it one day. But Square enjoys kicking Chrono Trigger's fandom.

Chrono trigger was awesome, but i still own it.
And i don't have a ds, was hoping this was about a sequel or something.

[Agent Helix]

Hey, it's the only Square game really worth a damn!

[twilight]

Awesome news.

Never played it but always wanted to and the DS is the only current gen system I own.

Everything's coming up Milhouse!

I already own a PSP and I just usually play on my PS3, but we’ll see. If this is a remake and not just a port then I might consider buying one.

i loved this game , i used to play it on an emulator on a gp32 ( a corean handeld devices )

it's a great game , so sad i lost my saves :(

I don't even want a remake, really. This is just one of those games I never really understood the hype about.

[Sabrina_Fried]

Awesome news! I don't think I ever had the chance to finish Chrono Trigger when I had a SNES. Now I'll get the chance!

A relatively good story, likable cast of characters, time travel fun, good design work and some gameplay elements that really hadn't been done in RPGs before.

[Thnikkaman]

Finally, FINALLY, I get to play it!

Chrono Trigger, the Dragon Quest SNES trilogy... now just gimme Secret of Mana and Super Mario RPG and I've completely made up for lost time.

[Damiean Dark]

The DS= awesome what games do you guys have?

I have

Megaman GX
Medal of Honour 4
Castlevania Portait of ruin
brain training
Metroid prime hunters
Viewtiful Joe double trouble
new super mario bros
resident evil DS

Are there any decent RPGs on the system that are not Zelda??

[DF2506]

Damiean Dark,

I agree with you. The DS is awesome.

I have:

Animal Crossing: Wild World (fun!)
Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (so cool)

I also have Final Fantasy 4 on reserve. Its going to be awesome. I definitly recommand FF4 if you want a great rpg to play on the DS!

Also, I use to have it and it was good: Contact. Its an action-rpg with an Earthbound flavor.

Another great, if you like stradegy rpgs is Final Fantasy Tactics A2. My dad has the game and I've been playing it. Its EXCELLENT. I highly recommand it to people who like grid-based tactical rpgs.

Oh and Chrono Trigger DS is going to be MUST have, imo!!!

Yes, I'm VERY excited. I was hoping it would be a 3D remake like FF4, but its not. That said, its going to have a new dungeon, wireless multiplayer, duel-screen & touch-screen support, plus I'm sure a new translation!

Though, I'd buy it even if it didn't have any of that! I'm a HUGE Chrono fan. I love the series (Chrono Trigger & Chrono Cross). I have both for the PS1, but don't have anything to play them on at the moment. Even if I did, I'd get Chrono Trigger for the DS anyway! I'd love to play the game on the system! :)

Yep, Square has made my year! :biggrin:

IMO, as long as they keep the animations that they made for the PS port the game's worth the money

Thanks for the info

Nintendo has shown that small games with good gameplay can compete with massive sprawling games with state of the art graphics.

[Damiean Dark]

Do you think it is possible for the amazing FF7 to be made for the DS?

[Astonishing X-Fan]

Meh. I've played both the original super NES and PSX versions over and over again. I have no interest in a port. A remake would be sweet, but a port? *yawn*

[Dr. Ghost]

ds, not really. psp? probably.

i'd rather see a ps3 remake, though.
