When you think about it shouldn't be too difficult if the game had been previously translated and released in the US. No mention of Europe is a bit of a worry, we better not be screwed over this again.

The thing that comes to mind is something like the Pokemon games where you have one screen where the battle is taking place and the touch screen for inputting commands and having the party members status etc. I can't seeing them completely changing how the game worked.

Well, not only the anime cut scenes, but also the character art in the instruction booklet were done by the animation studio TOEI (they also handled a majority of the DBZ series that wasn't done by Toriyama himself, I believe).

But, yeah, it's Marl for the same reason that it's Chrono with an H.

In the "trailer", you'll notice that the battle scenes don't show the menu...I'm guessing that's going to be in the other screen (it was always a nuesense anyways, getting in the way of the action)...But I don't think that's enough to warrent the phrase, "new system", really...

Ah, I actually wouldn't mind that.

Ohhh, that art. Okay, if it's TOEI that did then it's no wonder I thought it Toriyama himself.

Lawds, that was annoying. I was constantly moving the battle menu up and down, and both were terrible. The bottom blocked your characters most of the time, and the top would block your enemies

I noticed that as well. I think that techically it can be called a new system since it's different to how it was done before. It would only really be wrong it it labelled it as an original system.

Ah, I just caught this & remembered why...In the original version her formal name isn't "Nadia", but Marledia (or some equivalent spelling)...When she tells Crono her name, she's basically catching her slip up because she almost tells him her real name, when she's trying to actually pass off as a commoner.

If anyone's interested in translation differences, you can find them HERE.

But if it's supposed to be Marl, why didn't they keep it as Marl in the fan re-translation? I looked at the script on the site and Marle's dialogue in the Japanese script said "マル” or Marl next to it.

They're going to charge us £30 for this aren't they? if so, I'm getting the ROM.

Being one of those people who never got to play the series, I'm definitely looking forward to giving it a try.

This sounds uber cool, finally a reason to go get my DS from my cuz. I also hope they dont change any to crazy. And of course it would be cool to get some added content, maybe a new destenation to go to? Anyway sounds awesome and cant wait for it.
