Actually, isn't that a S-Jump scan...? See the pirate dude? Also, are you so sure those are screens from the new DS version...? I wonder...if it is, why not show both screens?

What these guys said  Toriyama may clone his own style over and over and get paid tons for it, but at least he never makes his characters emo. And yes, they translate wonderfully into cell-shaded graphics.

Not to mention you can see WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP at the bottom. And yeah, those are SNES screens. I would be inclined to say the scene of Magus's castle was featuring the dual screen, only there's no line through it. Whoever translated it as Famitsu failed. And if it was talking about a new dungeon, I would think it only natural to show a picture of it. |

Uh, the mention of the new dungeon doesn't come from the scan, but from the press release.

Whoops, it's S-Jump. A lot of those mags kinda blur together for me...

Well that would explain it  I'll be interested to see what time period this dungeon is in. Personally I'd love if it was in the Dark Ages, or the future. I wonder if they might make new endings too? That would be kind of cool.

The countdown has finished and now there's a small vid up showing that it is indeed a port. No changes as of yet on the US site.

Many, many brix were shat. I can't believe it's coming out so soon O_O I wasn't expecting it to hit Japan this year, so I guess us Amerifags will be getting it in the summer of '09.
Anyone here know moonspeak? I can read what it said on the vid, but my vocabulary sucks. |

From what I've heard it's going to hit both Japan & NA at the same time, but anyways...Here's the new bits of that "trailer" translated by or from Ichiro78 on GameFAQs...

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
|
That "featuring a new system" bit sounds the most intriguing to me...I also found it interesting that they used only Toriyama art and none of the new character art from TOEI from the PSX release...

Why is it Marl instead of Marle, though?

Woah, a simultaneous release? That's big news in and of itself. Thanks much for the translation too.

Yeah...I wonder how that system is gonna work. I liked CT's battle system alot, so I hope they don't screw it up. What's this other art you speak of, the stuff they used for the cutscenes? I thought that was done by Toriyama too. Or maybe it was someone else who duplicated his style, it's easy enough to do.
