but a new dungeon gais!

ill be stealing my brothers ds for definitely

[V_Translanka]

I think that Chrono Trigger is the one game that would actually benefit from a new dungeon, especially when considering the New Game+ and multiple ending features...

[ikuzo]

I wonder what the multiplayer mode is going to be like.
It says it supports up to 4 players. But if I remember correctly, the party consisted of 3 characters?
Is it going to have like a minigame independent to the story mode? Or is this the clue to the 'newly added system and fun elements' they mention...

In case people can't read Japanese or haven't found it yet...Here's the new bits of that "trailer" translated by or from Ichiro78 on GameFAQs...

..."time" once again is set in motion.

CHRONO

MARL

LUCCA

To the unforgettable past...

KAERU (Frog)

EIRA (Ayla)

... the distant future...

ROBO

...and finally, the end of all time.

The curtain opens for a great adventure to save the planet's life, passing time and space again and again.

2008.Winter

Translation of the "about" section:

After 13 years have passed "time" once again is set in motion.
The decade-surpassing, everlasting classic "Chrono Trigger" finally comes to the Nintendo DS!

This is a perfect port of the 1995 Super Famicom exclusive title "Chrono Trigger". It will go on sale in winter 2008 using the hardware's double screens and featuring a new system, as well as new, fun elements.

CHRONO TRIGGER

System: Nintendo DS
Genre: RPG
Players: 1 (1-4)
Release date: Winter 2008
Price: Not yet fixed
CERO age rating: Inspection pending

But, yeah, I imagine the 1-4 player thing being some new mini-game...but who knows?

I think you can say it almost more-so with the Chrono series because it's been 9 years, coming out w/a remake/port can be their way of testing the waters...I mean, the series has always been more popular in NA than JP, right? I think that after so long (which really wasn't something they could control because the main team kind of split after a while), the timing is right for them to see if interest in furthering the series WOULD be worthwhile...and if they can make a bit of money, why not? They can use that to further development of said series, right?

Yeah, I wasn't really that angry about the countdown placeholder site, btw...>_>

I prey you're right. I'll buy you 17 hookers if you are.

I just want to see the touch-screen support. I'm easy to please... though they would make me so happy if they brought another Chrono game out after this.

Chrono Trigger DS (english e3 trailer)
They couln't even give us a small full CG 3D scenes for their trailer just a cheap slideshow ..

[kweh!]

I don't mind if it stays 2D, but a graphics upgrade would have been nice.

Somehow they fail to grant your wish. No graphics upgrade has been made.

Here are some same old gameplay.

Well it looks exactly like the Chrono Trigger in Final Fantasy Chronicles. Now Square's 2 latest DS games (Final fantasy IV and Chrono Trigger) are playable on the DS and a custom firmware PSP!

[V_Translanka]

I don't think those are actually from CTDS, † fB †...From the images we've seen in Shonen Jump there are new HP/MP bars which those vids don't seem to show. It's the same graphically, but there are some differences made.

[First Class Soldier]

Well, the game still probobly plays allmost tyhe same I would think.

[V_Translanka]

Oh yeah, I guess I was wrong, btw...They were from the CTDS site vids...So I guess those bars are optional or something, I guess...Unless they uploaded vids of the older versions...? >_>

[First Class Soldier]

I hope that they make good use of the two screens for you DS owners. For me....I will buy FF Origins, Chronicles, and Anthology so I can enjoy FF1-6(no 3 but..) and Chrono Trigger LEGALLY!
