I have no idea what you're talking about austenw

I wish you luck in your hunt for a SNES copy of Chrono Trigger. If you can't find it get the DS Copy, the game is one of Square's finest.

In for HD Remix for 360 and PS3. Why limit my potential pool of victims? Prepare to be butthurt!

Ehh I got a in box chrono tigger on snes than has been sitting around since 1995 and that lame ps1 port...

Don't realy care about the DS one that much I might get it but I will never play it.


the only game I care about is playing super street fighter 2 online again like on xband.

super street fighter 2 comes on tuseday for ps3, dude not xbox 360 that is wendsday.


Since I hate the ps3 controler with a passion I am not getting that and since I hate the xbox 360 d-pad I am using my xbox 360 arcade stick.

no SF2 super-duper slamma-jamma mega deluxe insane turbo limited HD remix version for me, 360 d-pad equals shit, thereby making SF2 impossible to play... and I refuse to use an analog stick for it. but I will try to pick up Chrono Trigger, I can finally play that game!

@Pacopaco

Excuse me, I meant to say "sadly, including the GBA port." Just don't see GBAs around as much these days. :P

Playing chrono trigger on a 3 inch screen with head phones or the horrible built in speakers sucks no matter how good the port is.


The snes or ps1 version still looks good on MY CRT HDTV and can even get fake 5.1 surround sound with any decent reciver with dolby pro logic 2.


Hell it might even support dolby prologic since a lot of SNES games did at the time, that was one of the reasons I bought a dolby prologic system then.

The Chrono Trigger on Snes was around 70$ If I recall.

I'll definitely be picking up Chrono Trigger. I've never played it, and although I'm not normally an RPG guy, the story sounds so epic that I just can't resist.

ace of knaves: Please do. I typically hate RPGs with their overlong lengths, redundant convoluted storyline, boring combat systems, random encounters, crappy characters, LOOOOOTS of grinding, etc. CT doesn't suffer from any of this, 'cept that prehistoric girl. She sucks.

Hamza, Chrono Trigger is a very replayable game, and one of the best out there, so maybe you could start with the DS version and if you like it, find yourself an copy of the original. If you really want your first time to be on the SNES, here are three options:

1) We love you. I don't have a copy but it seems some other posters here do, so maybe they can lend you their catridge. Some SNES cartridges are starting to give out (in my experience), and nothing sucks more than a lost RPG save game, so be wary!

2) When I was in Orlando, I found a weird mom-and-pop used videogame store that sold copies of rare games like Earthbound[i] and [i]Chrono Trigger for the same cheap price as the non-rare games (of which they had many). I don't know why I didn't pick a few copies up . . . perhaps I was broke and not thinking on my toes . . . but in any case, maybe you can call around Orlando used game stores and see if you can order a copy. It's a shot in the dark, but there you go.

3) Bear with me, okay?

If you use a PC, there's nothing I can do for you, but if you have a Mac (Intel Macbook+), you can get a perfect emulation of Chrono Trigger that's even better than playing it on an old CRT television. I'm extremely particular about my pixels so I generally don't like emulation, but this is the exception.

What you need is BSNES, the Emulator Enhancer v2.3, and one of those SNES-controller USB adapters. The first two are free, the latter costs $22 or so. You also need that one obvious other thing.

Install it, go into the preferences (this is where the enhancer comes in), turn off bi-linear filtering or interpolation or whatever they call it, turn on the v-sync, turn off aspect-ratio correction, turn on auto-full-screen, and map your SNES controller.

If you have an Intel Macbook or a more power Mac, this is pixel-perfect, audio-perfect, controller-perfect emulation. It's fucking beautiful. The PC version of BSNES does not have an optional Emulator Enhancer as far as I know and thus suffers from v-sync issues or some crap, which is why I don't recommend it.

If you're altogether opposed to it (or "opposed to it, nudge nudge wink wink") for reasons other than inaccuracy, my apologies. I'm just trying to help you out because Chrono Trigger is worth it.

KOF collection. kick ASS.

Oh and the way your mac are just low performace over priced PC with a mac logo on them and a OS that takes all control away form you.


PC's can run the mac Os.


you can run linux or windows on the thing. Who really only has one OS installed these days?

@ Cube: I'm not sure what your point is. First off, those are all Macs running XP in the pic, and secondly, I'm not trying to instigate a flame war, or even suggesting one OS is better than another. All I said was there is a particular bit of software that some guy made for the Mac version of BSNES (which he ported himself, I believe) that isn't available on Windows. It has nothing to do with the hardware or the operating system.

Let's not get off-topic here.

(But yes, the comment system here kind of sucks. Comment tracking only works for comments in the last 24 hours and the 50 comments per page limit is buggy and inconvenient. I think it's a work in progress.)

USe ZSNES or zsnes extreme it is way better than BSnes and runs on linux and windows.

and my point is there is nothing on mac worth anythnig, the only reason I have the mac running on my PC is for those freaky dudes at work who insist on giving me useless mac files to work with.


If you have a "home theater PC" zsnes can replicate SNES on a HDTV out put and improve on it on the TV. with w wide pic of filters and also offers sourround sound interpolation if you sound card is good enough amoung other things.

it will also upscale it to insanely high res if your monitor supports it.

OF course I bought chrono trigger because I thought it was secret of mana 2 at the time since those dudes on the box look kinda the same.

Cube: You're killing me! ;_;

Here is some for sale.. i don;t know if thre cheep for chrono trigger.

NEver payed it though.


Humm I guess it has went up since When i got mine new near launch of the game, hell i dont even remeber what I paid since it was a gift for christmas 1995..


still not as shocking a rise as Bonk 3 CD version, and some of my neo geo stuff though.. phatasy star 4 was like $90 when it came out I think chrono trigger was about the same...


and you should have this, it has crazy jazz music about crhono trigger.

http://www.gamesfantasy.com/mica-0485.html

and really If you ever played through the far worse chrono cross on the ps1, then even the not so great port of chrono trigger will look like a golden god shiny and covered in vaseline for you.

Chrono cross is not good 80% of the time. But they did give me a free chrono trigger clock with it.


If you want it on a big screen the ps1 is a cheeper version that has been printed a bjallion times over.

Crono Trigger is an awful, awful game. The only positive thing I can possibly say about it is that it's graphics are gorgeous. Everything else is piss poor. Cross is so much better it's not even funny.

There are no games to buy this week. As much as I would like to play SF2HD, without an internet capable of supporting an online match, there's really no reason for me to DL it. I'll def. get it when I have better internets, though.

I'm sorry we don't have exactly the same opinions?

At least you agree CT is way overrated.

don't GET THE not-ROM.

see what I did there?

...as long as the gamelay is still good. Forgot to add that.
