One of my beefs with Chrono Cross was that it was clearly a stand-alone game (based off of Radical Dreamers for the Super Fami Satellaview), yet Chrono Trigger was retconned to shoehorn the sequel into the continuity (witness the ending of CT on the PS port versus the 16-bit version). This sort of messing around reaches the level of “Han shot first” in my book.

Will we see a similar retconning if a Chrono sequel comes out? Who knows. It will probably have to exist in an altogether different world, seeing as CC practically removed any chance that it can be linked to the good old kingdom of Guardia (It’s still possible though, kinda like Hyrule I guess). But to me, the Chrono series still consists of Chrono Trigger and nothing else. Chrono Cross is the Zelda 2 that I shall pretend never existed. :)

Heck, Chrono Cross didn’t even feature much in the way of time travel or some such nonsense, which is kind of silly considering the word “Chrono” in the title, but I digress. :D

I’m not saying I’m not desperate for it myself, but I think having the article discuss interesting new information about the state of the Chrono series might have been a better approach than basing it on the possibility of a remake. That being said, it was good to hear an update about the status of the Chrono series. I’m not truly complaining or bashing the article, really, just giving my opinion of what I thought after reading it. I think you might be able to see how some people might get the reaction I did.

Also, I guess after playing the game dozens of times through on the SNES and a few times on the Playstation version, I’d have very little interest in playing the exact same game over again on a portable. As I said, something different would excite me, personally. I really have no doubt that some kind of port or remake will eventually come out, it’s just a matter of time, but I’ve got my fingers crossed that they do it justice when they do.

I agree wholeheartedly that a port of Chrono Trigger would be pointless for us fans. But that doesn’t mean that it would be a waste of effort. Whether an effort is worthwhile depends on the perspective of the person or organization expending the effort. If a port would be profitable for Square, then it could hardly be said to be a waste of effort.
