[DS] Chrono Trigger DS - Retards complaining about a new optional ending. Fun inside!

That shit-eating grin on Crono is horrendous. And besides, it's not like he ever displays a single emotion in the game. Why would he grin smugly for the promo art?

If Squeenix wants to make any improvements at all, hire someone else to do the new promo art, then rationalize that the sprites are nearly fifteen years old, of course they're going to look way off by comparison.

You and I both know Nomura would do the redesign. And what's the only thing worse than Toriyama drawing characters? Nomura putting white glue on a bristle board and then throwing belts, zippers and shoes at it while laughing maniacally.

"CHEQUE PLEASE?" :HAND OUT:

Well, the GBA port was actually a port from the Neo Geo Pocket Color version, which WAS a complete re-art, if you get my drift.

My thinking is that they're not going to go through the effort of redoing the art for the game at this stage, and they're just going to port it. I was basically saying that the only option outside of that would be to put one of those filters on if you REALLY insisted on having some sort of graphical improvement. I just think those things make everything worse, myself.

Actually, other RPGs have tried that, and it just comes off as incredibly awkward.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

There's a trailer out!
Check it out on HERE.

The trailer is a bit ho-hum, but the intro brought back some memories. I was just hoping for some higher resolution sprites.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Wonderswan. Neo Geo Pocket Color would have looked worse.

1-4 players huh?

This should be interesting.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

FOUR-PLAYER BIKE RACE GO! I hope it's Wi-Fi compatible!! Maybe they'll let all four players bet on a runner at the Millennial Fair!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Guh, the DS's resolution is smaller than the SNES's (although it only differs by like 20 pixels). I still think it will look great on the smaller screens of the NDS. The GBA Final Fantasys looks great.

I still wonder how they plan to use the WiFi support. Maybe it will be some kind of item trading service, didn't we get one of those in Final Fantasy 3?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Chrono Trigger DS will look great on a small screen I LOVED playing it on my PSone screen. It looked the best out of all the other games I played on it.

Trailer was kinda cool, could of been better.

How ya doing, buddy?

So honestly, would you rather have a 3D remake (in FF3/4 fashion)?
I'm a ridiculous and sentimental bitch, and I really love how this will be an enhanced port and not a total remake.

I think done right a 3D remake would be pretty kick-ass, but the enhanced port idea is no less appealing. This is pretty much a guaranteed purchase on my part unless they do something incredibly stupid.

FELIPE NO

They just need to come up with Eternal Millennial Fair. I spent so goddamn long on that shit every time I played, that shit was FUCKING AWESOME.

In my opinion, Chrono Trigger is one of those games where much of its charm was in it's graphics. Remaking it in DS-3D would be such a different experience, which I hardly think I would enjoy as much as port. But that's just my view. I've been trying to emulate CT on the DS many times, but there's always flaws. To finally get a perfect version - even spanning two screens and being adjusted for the machine - is great.

How is the DS's sound chip compared to the SNES? I wonder if they will enhance the music, like they did with the PSX version of the game (ok, maybe not to that extent but still)

I'd rather they keep it classic and not do 3-D unless it was done to perfection.

You'd be in luck then wouldn't you.

I was merely saying that a 3D remake could have the potential to be pretty awesome, but clearly sticking with the original 2D look is no bad thing either. In fact I'm rather the fan of great sprite work in any area of digital artistry, but that doesn't diminish the possibilities for an interesting 3D (or probably 2.5D really) take on the Chrono Trigger world.

How ya doing, buddy?

:\ Am I the only one who remembers Chrono Trigger: Ressurection? They were going along great putting CT into 3D before square shut them down with a cease and desist a few years back.
Anyway, this is nice, but I hope the extra content is a little more than the hacked together transplant dungeons like in the FF1 remakes.

Also, 4 players rules out some sort of co-op dungeon, I guess

Chrono Resurrection

Now if they were looking to make a profit from this, then I fully agree with Square's move for a C&D. However, I didn't read anything of the sort and this was shaping up to be a damn good game. The updated music was amazing and the updated graphics were looking incredible.

They were still using their intellectual property. Square was well within their legal rights to end this.

They also shut down a team that was looking on making a Secret of Mana port with the HL2 engine.

I liked the idea of the porting Chrono Trigger over to a 3-D world but I don't know... Somehow I feel it would be like cheating yourself out of a classic.

Agreed.

Well it seems that all of us prefer the classic 2D style. i just hope the music is on par.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't have any worries about the music. Square Enix hired Mitsuda to take charge of the sound direction and, considering how awesome the quality of Soma Bringer is on the DS, I see great things. He also said he kept it as close to the original as he could.

Yasunori Mitsuda On Chrono Trigger DS: 'Finally!'

At least it isn't the FFIV DS abomination of sound quality. Some of those remade songs were horrible.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh thank god.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The Dragonball Z cut scenes from the PSone version are confirmed for this port. And stuff!

Quote:

There are some expansions to the dialog that add on to the original translation. In the Super Nintendo version, when Crono's mother awakens him at the game's outset, she keeps it short and to the point, saying, "Ah, Leene's Bell makes such beautiful music! You were so excited about the Millennial Fair that you didn't sleep well, did you…? I want you to behave yourself today!" Now she is a bit more chatty, saying, "xkjdfjdfidjfdkfdjfdfkjkfjdfjdjfjfkdfdfjdkfjdjfkjd fjkdfjdkjdfljdfjkdjfjdkfjdfjdjfjdfjdkjfdjfjjfdjdkj fkjdfjdfjdjfjdfkdfjdkfjdjdf"

Quote:

While it was not implemented at this point, a Square Enix representative said, there are plans to include the original single-screen version for purists. This will allow players to have the same gameplay experience as the Super Nintendo title. Details on the Wi-Fi features have yet to be revealed.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I hope I can still fail miserably at the trial. DS revision should have microphone support.

OBJECTION! CLEARLY THE WITNESS HAS SAID SOMETHING THAT IS CONTRARY TO THE EVIDENCE.

NO CRONO. ALSO YOU CAN'T TALK. I SHALL DEDUCT FROM THE METER. *EXPLOSION*

...

I was speaking idiomatically.
