Very few - arguably no other, in fact - RPGs have survived the test of time as well as Chrono Trigger, and the evidence can be seen in its staggering fanbase, rivaled only in the JRPG world by that of Final Fantasy VII. The game almost received a full, 3-D fan-made remake, until Square Enix pulled the plug on it, and thousands of fans glared hatefully at our very own website when we jokingly announced Chrono Break on April Fool's Day several years ago. So when Square Enix announced that they were rereleasing the beloved RPG classic on the DS, people took notice."
New Chrono Trigger Form-ism figures of Crono and Marle have been showcased at a Square Enix pop-up store, with pre-orders expected soon.

A remake or even a modern port would do since it is one of the best games all time. Can’t believe it’s been 30 years since I first played it
Yasunori Mitsuda is a talented composer I love the music both from Chrono Trigger, Xenogears. I will always enjoy Nobuo Uematsu as well. I would love to have seen the Chrono Trigger concert live.
