Default Chrono Trigger coming to VC

http://www.cubed3.com/news/15363

Its coming into Japan, so it may be a while before the Americans can get it.

I'd rather own it on DS. Currently it's around 16 dollars on Amazon.

I picked up the DS version for less than 20 bucks myself. The Virtual Console version will be tempting, though. This is my favorite game of all time, after all.

The DS exclusive content was a bit of a letdown (Dimensional Vortex, Lost Sanctum), by the way, but I love it for the fact that Chrono Trigger can be played on the go. It helped relieve some anxiety on the way back from Comic-Con last year.

Hopefully this will also be released in Europe. I want to play this so much!!

Final Fantasy VI (III over here) came last week to the EU virtual console. Has it been released in US yet?

As someone who played Chrono Trigger for the first time recently, I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who's yet to experience the game. It has aged incredibly gracefully and remains a RPG that is superior to most other games in the genre.

A true classic.

It really is. Although for anyone that hasn't played the DS version yet, just know that the extra "dungeons" SUCK >_<

I'm glad that I played the original SNES version, it just seemed to be the puriest way of experiencing it.

I'll buy it, as I have done with each other re-release of the game, in the hopes that they will one day make more Chrono-related greatness.

What's this? The Telltale Games forum doesn't have a Like button? My reply will have to suffice.

I currently own the PS1 and DS versions of Chrono Trigger (and Chrono Cross for PS1). I even cut out the registration cards, and mailed them to Squaresoft in hopes that they would take notice. It's about time that they released another Chrono game. There were rumors of a Chrono Break for years, but nothing ever came of it.

Also, I never had the chance to play a physical copy of the SNES original, so the Virtual Console version would certainly be the next best thing. Nevermind my emphasis on physical copy.

You can look at it in different ways. It's weird that of the 'extra's' of the DS version the extra dungeon is the only one that receives mention. Because, and more importantly imho, the DS version has a far more accurate, rich and complete script translation. So one could argue what version is the 'purest' one.

Also the animation sequences are a great extra.


I am really keeping fingers crossed for an enhanced port of Secret of Mana. The script was heavily cut in the western version of the game, this because the memory of the US cartridge is less than the JP one.

And I always dreamt of a Mother and Soulblazer trilogy(<3 Terranigma) release.

They really have a pair of balls, asking us to buy this game again. I've had this in one version or another on SNES, Playstation and DS now. NO MORE! And how dare they blame the fans for not buying it enough to warrant a sequel!

I never get excited about Japanese Virtual Console releases. They come out in the US much later, if at all.

I believe that Microsoft own Rare, like they actually bought a majority of shares, so I doubt Nintendo with ever get Banjo or any other Rare made IP back, sadly

When I said pure I was refering to playing the game as closely to how I would have experienced it had I played it on a SNES, back in in '95. Although, I must say that I hadn't realised that the DS version was host to a new translation. It should make for a fun replay in a few years time, although that would mean missing out on my +New Game save file. Maybe a third playthrough in six years time.

I've played Chrono Trigger a lot, and I don't really see any reason to buy this version as I already have the SNES, PS1, and DS versions of it. What I would really like to see is a re-release of Chrono Cross. It may be blasphemy to say this, but I actually liked it better than Chrono Trigger.

I wouldn't say that's blasphemous. I know that Chrono Cross has its haters but I think that it's wonderful myself and there's certainly a fanbase out there that would agree. It's a little too close for me to make a call on which game I prefer though.

Chrono Cross is excellent, but it is indeed blasphemous to prefer it to the original.
