So, apparently the game isn't getting a visual overhaul in the slightest, as, should our memory serve us correct, the images in the scan to the right look exactly like the original SNES title. Hey, we're not complaining! Who has any right to complain about Chrono Trigger getting re-released for the DS? Nobody, that's who!Seriously, we're so stoked for this game, we doubt any other happening could ever rival it. Actually, if Abraham Lincoln and George Washington rose out of their graves to take part in a zombie steel-cage match, it would probably rival Chrono Trigger. But, Chrono would still win.
See how crazy this game is making us?

Actually, looking at the picture makes me wonder if that really is the DS game or if they could just be showing screenshots from the old CT because they don't have any official footage of the new game released yet. I wouldn't rule it out because its definitely a possibility.
Until I actually see some concrete evidence, I'm holding out for an enhanced title (like DQIV) or a ground up remake in 3D (like FF3).

I'll complain. It should be coming out for the PSP, that's what. It could truly benefit from having the wide aspect ratio.
When I got FFIII for the DS, I thought "cool, FF for the DS touch screen!" I was psyched. After playing it for a while though, I began wishing it were on the PSP with the wide screen. The touch screen is a useless gimmick for any game unless they do something innovative with it, which they won't do for a port, so hence my complaint. Ninja Gaiden on the DS, now that was how to use the DS touch screen to good use.

Like, wide screens are nice and all, but the two games in question were designed for a 4:3 aspect ratio.

As are all PS/PS2 ports. Why should that make a difference? It's not hard to change the aspect ratio. We're not living in the days where terrain and dungeons can't scroll and bullets bounce off of walls, in case you haven't noticed.

Personally, I would prefer updated graphics on this remake. Although the graphics were great by SNES standards, this is 2008.... Not having updated graphics would only take away from the gaming experience (a la Front Mission for DS). It may be a great game, but it won't win any new converts with outdated graphics.

You my friend, are exactly what's wrong with the gaming world. How has anyone jumped on a bandwagon for CT? We'd be jumping on the bandwagon by saying "LOL OMGz THIS GAME NEEDZ 3D!!!" No. Just no. Chrono Trigger is a quality game, it doesn't need a graphical update to be better, it's amazing, just as it is. And just so you know, it is the second coming, bitch.

In this age of stupidity and poor excuses for games like guitar hero, CT in an original, yet semi updated form is just what we need. And just so you know, it is the second coming, bitch.
