Well it's not announced, not yet anyway. It seems Square-Enix is taking inspiration from Blizzard by setting up a countdown site Yet unlike Blizzard they're not really subtle about it, you see and hear a clicking clock, the URL ends with ctds (figuring the abbreviation of that one isn't hard) and also there is a poor scan from a Japanese magazine.

At the moment the rumours are saying that its going to be a remake but expect at least a port. wink

If you don't already have at least one DS, you pretty much fail at life.

I never got a DS, there were no compelling games to get for it yet. At least until now, I might wait on getting it when it comes out, hopefully they'll have some sort of limited edition bundle crap. It looks like the same game except with new dungeon and you can play wirelessly.

Eh, this would be fantastic either way..Port, remake or original.

I've never had the chance to play the original, but have friends who swear to this day that it's the finest game ever played..

Dammit, Nintendo- the DS's only major flaw is it has so many great games on it that I'll never have the time to play them all. You are making the situation worse by making the DS library rival the SNES as the greatest ever.

On the bright side, no longer have to pay $70+ to find a copy of the cart to CT now...

Mother****er. Another must-have holiday title I'm gonna have to buy now. Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, I might even have the time to actually PLAY some of these, too.

"Rape-Your-Wallet Fest '08" is already off to a rousing start.

Ha, I've never heard that term before.

I never played Chrono Trigger, but from what I understand it has as big a fanbase (or bigger) than my favorite game of all time, Super Mario RPG.

This game made me believe that people had fridges in the year 1000.

Curious to see what they do with this on the DS. The load times on the PS1 version were brutal, compared to the cartridge. Of course, now it may seem silly, but a few seconds just for a menu to pop up? Or save? Drove me nuts.

That said, I don't hate the PS1 port. This game and Dragon Quest VIII marked the only times past the age of 16 for me where Akira Toriyama's character designs didn't make me want to self-inflict bodily harm with an icepick.

Between this, and the discovered footage of Lang's Metropolis, it has turned into a very, very good past couple of days, indeed.
