We all know about the infamous Nintendo Power rumor with the sword in the purple bubble that many believed to be Kingdom Hearts 3 for Wii. At the time, it appeared that was the most logical and feasible reason when looking over the hints given in the magazine itself. But, what if those hints were truly nothing to gaze at and just incoherent ramblings of the Nintendo Power staff? Well, I think the answer to the riddle has been solved."
It's long been thought that a Chrono Trigger remake is impossible, but the Super Mario RPG remake could pave the way.
It's already been said that they weren't motivated to do anything with the series unless the gang was back together, not really for any legal reasons.
A third Chrono series game called Chrono Break was planned, but Square prioritized an MMORPG, and Chrono Break’s concepts were used in mobile games.
It’s true.
Squaresoft used to be like the equivalent of Naughty Dog back in the day. When you heard Squaresoft was making a game you knew it’d be a banger.
god I miss those days.
Yeah they used to be the best in the industry. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is the worst decision they ever made. While they had previously talked about merging with Enix, that film flopping so hard left them with no other option.
@porkChop
My understanding is that merger was happening before the film and the flop of the film freaked them out because they thought Enix would call it off.
I personally wish Square Pictures was a success. I thought the Matrix shirt they did was cool and they were pushing computer animation into a more mature realm.
Unfortunately, Spirits Within noted many and wasn’t the FF movie a lot of fans wanted. I thought it was decent, but something like Advent Children should’ve been the direction they went.
To me, Naughty Dog is now Naughtycucks.p after that god awful story in LoU 2.
It was people like Yasumi Matsuno that held it for me, at Squaresoft. The company thought them too radical and ran them out. And now they yearn for people like that. They’re short sighted and pathetic.
Kinda misleading title, even from reading the article itself.
The staff and management couldn’t come to an agreement and the team moved on. Part of the team went to creat ff11 and the rest to Monolith software. Ideas for this game were implemented in some form to mobile games-later on. Which make sense as early 2000s mobile phones were not as powerful.
In the 16-bit era, game devs and composers could finally change the type of tones used in the music, simulating a wider array of instruments and creating a whole lot of great soundtracks in the process.
It wasn’t easy picking out the best of the best because there were so many great ones. Even middle-of-the-road soundtracks seemed to deserve a bump if the game was just that damn good, and so many from that era are that damn good!
Here's the Ghetto Gamer list of top 20 soundtracks from the 16-bit era.
b00bs ;-;
CT DS remake will pwn.
Here is a crazy idea... Wait until the next issue and find out then.
Chrono Trigger was beautiful, and one of the few RPGs I adore, yet I have a feeling Squeenix will mess this up. I imagine it'll be a port with a few small, trashy additions, just to make a quick buck. I think Square-Enix stopped caring about gamers awhile ago.
Don't know if want...
isn't it already confirmed that they are working on KH 3 for the PS 3? I think I have read about it here on n4g somewhere. It's probably Chrono Trigger remake for the ds :/ And I hope square don't mess this up for us gamers in that case.
Chrono Trigger would be awsome!!
