CONFIRMED: Jump Magazine: CHRONO TRIGGER DS [UPDATED]

July 01, 2008 in News comments 18

A recent 2ch thread was posted with a small amount of details and a partial scan of a new game reveal from Jump Magazine.

This new game? Chrono Trigger DS, a port with new features from the original game.

This will be confirmed when news from Jump come out later tonight/early tomorrow.

Provided this is true, let the internets rejoice. The scan is provided to the right. The purported release date is Winter 2008.

[Update: Square Enix has put up a teaser site HERE, and left a note on their main page saying "Coming Soon 200807070000". Rejoice.]

    I have a confession to make. I almost wet myself with excitement and my heart stopped for a whole minute when I saw the title.

    PLEASE LET THIS BE TRUE!

    It's for reals, guys. Check the update. This is awesome.

    I never really got into CT back then, but this is a good second third chance.

    Same here.

    I remember playing it back then, but I never really got into it for some reason. Now I can finally finish this game.

    Damn. It's never going to be on the Virtual Console if Square can make more money by selling it on the DS.

    YAY I'M GONNA BE SICK!!!

    I love Chrono Trigger! (Despite disliking Final Fantasy, but I do like Earthbound) However this game better feature alot of new content, a remake with touch screen controls won't do it for me...

    This is better news than any Final Fantasy remake. Sure, it's a port (probably with the added cutscenes), but I'm excited as hell.

    Holy crap, this is some GREAT news. I love the Chrono series...but I don't own a DS. Damn you, Square-Enix! Why do you throw the good games out of the PS3?

      Just go buy Final Fantasy Chronicles for the PS1. It has FF4 and Chrono Trigger. Cheaper and no waiting.

      I would be excited, except I already own 3 copies of CT. 2 SNES and 1 for the PS1. I suppose a portable version wouldn't hurt. But it isn't as if I haven't played the game like 15 times already.

        The load times on the PS1 version are horrid.

          Not on the PS3. The drive is faster and there is more available RAM.

          But short of buying a DS or digging through eBay for a SNES copy the PS1 version is the only other solution.

    Never played it but have heard it was a great game, so I'll buy it for DS
