Hopefully S-E will put a new English script that is faithful to the Japanese version.  The original localtzation was decent but some of the story details had to be cut.

You "madam" are full of sh...

It would be great if they included all the extras found in Ps1 version + enchanced gfx's (which i could live without too)

I wonder what the Wireless Play is all about.

Mind you he likes Animal Crossing.

He also forgot about the prehistoric cave woman.

This news is great, I just feel bad for those who do not appreciate great games when they are offered to us.

Somewhere in the Squeenix headquarters they probably have a dartboard which helps them decide which franchise to rehash and whore out when they need money.  I guess someone finally hit a bullseye on Chrono Trigger.

He must not have played CT and remembered when Shala was absorbed into Lavos or the fact that when you defeat Lavos in CC you in fact release Shala. Let us also not forget how Kid was found either... hmmm... by Lucca?

Long story short, it rewards greatly when someone actually pays attention when playing a game.

Maybe not a full blown sequel to Chrono Trigger, but the connections are there. It also connects to Radical Dreamers if he took the time to play/read that game.

*screams like a 8 year old girl!!!!!!*


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

S-E must have been thinking about doing a CT remake for quite a while.  S-E have stated many times that a remake was a possibility if the demand was great enough and holy crap, it was.  The game managed to go for high prices even though the game is not even rare which shows how great demand was.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
