About Me


Old-school gamer. I started gaming with the Atari 2600. I became an addict with the arcade release of Street Fighter II at my college. The SNES release pushed me into buying that system and a lame arcade stick. I haven't looked back since then. I still consider the 16-bit to be the Golden Age of gaming. The current generation is keeping me pretty happy, especially with the fighting game renaissance that's happening lately. And, yes, I'm old.

Proud owner of: Kiwi Gameboy Color, GBA SP, GBA Micro, PSP 3000, White DS Lite, Silver NeoGeo Pocket, purple SwanCrystal, SNES, Genesis, N64, purple Gamecube, slim PS2, Dreamcast, Wii and PS3.

Favorite Games: Last Blade 2, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Mark of the Wolves, Zelda: A Link to the Past, Zelda: Minish Cap, Dark Stalkers, King of Fighters, Mega Man ZX, Ikaruga, Macross: Do You Remember Love, Raiden Trad, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Valkyria Chronicles, Professor Layton, Killer7



Games on my mind:
Super Street Fighter II HD Remix (PS3)
King of Fighters XII (PS3)
King of Fighters XIII
King of Fighters 2k2: UM (PS2)
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift (PS3)

Chrono Trigger DS to be in US for holidays
nilcam | 9:23 AM on 07.02.2008 14 comments


Square-Enix has issued a press release detailing the Chrono Trigger release. It seems that the game will be released in the US for holiday 2008. From the release, it seems that the game will not really be modified in any way, and that's fine with me.

They're adding "touch screen functionality", whatever that turns out to be...

Ugh, no thanks. If it was a new game, I might be vaguely interested, or if it had to do with Cross(which was FANTASTIC) but I have no interest in yet another port of that terrible game. As far as I'm concerned, the only positive CT has going for it is the absolutely gorgeous sprites and backgrounds, but the game itself has no substance and that just kills it for me.

@Gen Eric Gui: Chrono Trigger is my favorite RPG of all time. I love the lack of random encounters and separate battle screens. It's the perfect length and benefits from the unique multiple endings.

@Gen Eric Gui:
While I agree that Chrono Trigger is not as good as everyone would have you believe (especially when it comes to story and characters) it is still a good game.

Apparently SquareEnix are adding in another dungeon and wireless multiplayer battles. I just hope I don't have to wait too long for the game to come out in the UK since neither Chrono game ever came out in the PAL regions

Chrono Trigger has great characters, but a weak story. Well, a weak main story anyway, the only thing that carries it is the personalities of the goofy characters.

I want to see a new Cross game myself. Something still feels off about all this.

New dungeon sounds interesing. So does wi-fi functionality. I wonder if they'll add more endings to it.

I play Chrono Trigger about once a year and I think it still holds up today. I don't know what some of you people are talking about.

Square Enix is releasing remakes of two of my all time favorite games this year. I'm happy kid ^_^

Sounds like a lazy fuckin' cash in. I've still got my cart, so whatever.

Great game that many missed and more deserving of wider exposure. Forget FFVII remakes.

Cash in, are you crazy? I too own the SNES copy, as well as the PS1 cut as imports, but I'd still buy it again.

They don't make rpgs with multiple endings anymore and Chrono Trigger is one of the best.
