My 400th video!
So, what happens when your cross the greatest 16 bit machine ever created (the Super Nintendo) with the excessive talent of Squaresoft's "Dream Team" (Final Fantasy's Hironobu Sakaguchi, Kazuhiko Aoki, musical composer legends Nobuo Uematsu & Yasunori Mitsuda and legendary character designer Akira "Dragonball" Toriyama)?
Simple. One of the greatest games ever made, on any format, on any hardware generation.
As many others, It was not released in Europe (to my great sadness) so it was many years later that I was able to enjoy it.
A Wii Virtual Console port is the number 1 request from everyone all around the globe, but this will be tricky, too many people (none of them are at Square-Enix at all) to get the permission to do so... but this has to happen, it just does!*
Hope the intro brings back to you as many fond good memories not only of this game, but of indeed, the golden age of video gaming.
*And it finally did. Download the game on the Wii Virtual console right now! =)
PS: I will not debate this any further. This game was never released as an official PAL cart and this is the fact. The first time the game came to Europe was in 2009 , the DS version. Not even the Playstation version was released over here. This are the facts, they are not debatable and I will not tolerate further discussion of this in here, misinformation serves no one.

Fun fact: the pendulum at the very beginning is actually a Mode 7 effect. The pendulum itself stays completely still, and then the entire screen is rotated back and forth in order to create the illusion that the pendulum is moving.

There's something about these SFX that just make it more impactful, like how when Crono and Marle do their double tech on the bridge fight and it hits right as the music reaches a crescendo, one of those moments you'll never forget.

@glenngunnerzero 5 жыл бұрын

The only problem with that is the crescendo happens after the attack lands and the game loads the non battle screen into the next scene with them on the dactyls. The song is suppose to end right when the epoch loops the map, and then it fades out with screen wipe. The audio is off (about a second or 2) along with a few others I've seen on KZfaq leading me to believe these are recorded from an emulator (poorly at that) instead of the actual game system or Wii Virtual Console. These Demo Screens serve as a good mark for when a game is being recorded badly on a computer that's using an emulator vs the actual cart on an SNES/S. Famicom because certain scenes stick too long on screen instead of immediately moving to the next screen, in time to the music, in some cases it's a PAL and NTSC issue (25/50 fps vs 30/60) in others the game simple never exist in a region like C. T. was, in which case options were limited to how money you're willing to pay.

Despite having anime cutscenes in the DS version, I find this intro superior because it seems to drive home the game's marriage of Fantasy and Science Fiction, with the music really making it feel as if the game is an urgent race against time. It does an AMAZING job hyping you up for the massive adventure ahead.

I still cant believe that next year will mark Chrono Triggers 20th anniversary! It feels like yesterday that my dad bought this at release for the SNES. I was only 5 years old at the time, Im now 24. I have played this game so many times and you know what? I never got bored of it. Chrono Trigger is one of those definitive games you will never see again for a very long time. The story, the gameplay, the music, the sidequests, the characters.. everything is so perfectly blended into one brilliant game. Almost 20 years later, people are still playing this. This game truly has stood the test of time.

A couple of years ago, the president of square enix was interviewed and one of the questions was whether Chrono Trigger would ever get a sequel. He joked and said that if people wanted a sequel they should buy more copies of the DS remake. But in all seriousness he mentioned that the only way they could do justice to the original is if they had the OG team of designers and engineers (dubbed the "Dream Team") That's now impossible - many left the gaming industry decades ago, some passed away and others moved on to greener pastures in the gaming industry. A sequel by any other team could never do justice to this masterpiece and I'm happy there will never be one. Instead, we get to enjoy this is a timeless classic :)

But when it came out on DS, I bought it and played through, and did several New Game+ runs getting all the weapons and armour and even beating the Dream Devourer. The game is a masterpiece, from it's world-building to it's soundtrack. It was also a pleasant surprise to find out the artwork was made by the same man who created one of my favorite animes. RIP Akira Toriyama, thanks for making such an awesome game that has truly withstood the test of time.
