Chrono Trigger... DS!

[Julian]

Heaven forbid SE actually makes a new IP instead of rehashing all their old games to milk us for money. I love most SE games as much as the next guy but its getting old. The merger of Square Soft and Enix software was horrible for the RPG industry. They constantly tried to outdo each other and now that they are one they just became this profit whoring company. They lost the spark that made them the top RPG maker for a good 10 years.

ITS ALL ENIXS FAULT!!!111

Spoilers: No.

JP version is out and downloadable, even with English text. However, anti-piracy checks are strewn throughout the game, locking it up at set points on every flash card, looks like everyone is going to have to buy it

[Doombear]

OR play it on No$GBA... as apparently it won't lock up there. Not what i really want to do though, so if no fix is out by next week I will probably buy it. Actually i will most LIKELY buy it either way.

It is what it is, and it plays well from what i have played so far on NO$. Nothing exciting, nothing really that new, but it has been a LOOONG time since i played it the first time and i think that bit of yummy nostalgia is worth $40.

They'll be added to GBAtemps cheat database in the next update, but for now you can do them yourself.

[Doombear]

Kiarax, you have Cyclo right? Can i input that manually in the Cheat.db myself? I have never really used any cheats on my games before... just curious. I will do some digging myself as well, just wondering if you knew since you had the same card.

EDIT: Nevermind i found a custom userEVO file, just need to read up on how to implement this code into my list that i already have, don't want to overwrite the EVO file i have now.

EDIT2: Found all the right info, now to mess around when i am bored and have some free time.

Finally out in stores today! Can't wait to do the new sidequests and the new final boss and ending. I may be inspired to trudge through CC again after this, just to refresh my memory on the whole storyline.

[HAcoreRD]

not in any stores near me, and i'll be damned if i'm going to gamestop for it!

Except that today is only a ship date. Odds are, most retailers will get it tomorrow, so rushing around looking for it today is pretty much a lost cause.

Spoiler: show

Boss of C.C. is the new 'special' boss in this C.T. remake
New ending also hints at Janus actually being Guile even though they said he wasn't, lol

[Kaslo]

"Hello this is Ashley from Gamestop calling to inform you that Chrono Trigger will be arriving tomorrow [Tuesday] afternoon."

[Alina]

Just picked it up and now letting my DS charge while I eat!

Sad that no maps come with the game though

I was afraid that was what they'd do.

[Parshias]

I think it's pretty hilarious that the back of the box lists, "Timeless gameplay feels fresher than ever before!" when they haven't changed anything.

Oh well, it'll be fun anyway.

Yeah, CT was one of my favorite games growing up, but I'm not buying this one for a while. At least the GBA FF remakes had the excuse of being done on a system that couldn't handle much of a graphical upgrade, this is pure laziness, a way to make a quick buck on Square's part. Oh wow, they remixed the dialogue and added some endgame crap, whoop-dee-fucking-doo. Squenix reminds me of an old rock star at this point, no longer able to produce much new material that interests the public, but still able to coast on the strength of extremely solid old-school hits.

...who am I kidding, I'll break down and buy it within a month.

[Confuse]

yay for 2 track bonus CD lol

Personally, I'm glad they didn't really change anything. CT was already a great game, and I think if they had gone back and given it a full makeover they would've found some way to screw it up. It's a game that's actually aged pretty well.

Although I think sticking in an extra ending that attempted to retcon something in CT to make more sense in CC was pretty stupid. They should've just left that alone.

[Kaylia]

What was retconned? I thought it was only a bonus scenes added to a particular ending.

[Charismatic]

I think that's what he was calling a retcon (although it really isn't), I'm not really displeased with the 'new' ending.

[Rokku]

Spoiler: show

Adding a scene that goes back and implies that Guile from CC is Magus/Janus, when CC and the developers already made it clear that he wasn't, kind of falls under the scope of retconning in my books. There were already a couple spots in CC that made it pretty clear that Janus and Guile were two separate people. Maybe retconning isn't the word, but I seriously don't know what word you'd use to describe the stupidity of going back and making allusions to the fact that a character in CT becomes a character in CC that he pretty plainly wasn't.

It's not severe, but it's still retarded.

[Kaylia]

Yeah, a bit stupid I guess. He was originally suposed to be agus/Janus, but it never happened in CC. No clue why they did this.
