The direct translation on the other hand is more faithful to the original Japanese game, but lacks some of the the charm of Woolsey's translations from the 90s.Īlso would be remissed if I didn't mention there are a lot of nice mods for the SNES version from minor tweaks to full blow fan-made extra content and conversions that you don't find even on the Steam version. Generally speaking Woolsey's translation is a bit more quirky, which leads to some more light-hearted and interesting characterization, but at the cost of some flat out incorrect translations and minor censorship. Whether which one is better depends on what you are looking for. The DS and subsequent version uses a new, more direct and literal translation. The SNES and PS1 version uses Woolsey's localization, which a lot of people have fond nostalgic memories of. I'd say the real defining difference between the two is the translation. The DS version also suffers in the music and general sound department by virtue of being a handheld, but again unless you are a stickler for perfect audio then you'll likely not even notice. There are some odd aesthetic choices in the DS version and later ports such as an odd color filter that slightly yellow-washes the game, but not to an annoying point or anything, but it's worth noting. The bestiary is just a trivial add on that doesn't mean anything and the Arena of the Ages is arguably the worst of the DS extra content, so it's not really a big loss to not have it. The FMV sequences being removed is an odd choice and a bit disappointing, but not a big deal.
The only thing the Steam and mobile port are missing from the DS version are two of the FMV sequences, the bestiary and the Arena of the Ages. The DS, Steam and mobile versions are virtually identical. As you dive deeper into the story, you will be impressed with how classic games focus a lot on the plot and writing to keep players interested.Ĭhrono Trigger may not be offering much new content, but it is one of the best classic games.I don't think Chrono Trigger really has a definitive version. Since it is a RPG, there are leveling elements to upgrade your characters and make them stronger. The plot of Chrono Trigger is a time traveling adventure that takes you into the past and future to expand the group of characters that you can use. One of the best classic role playing games The port was taken from the remake and may not have the visual fidelity for newer devices, but the core turn-based fighting and exploration still exist. The graphics of Chrono Trigger have not changed and did not receive an upgrade, which is a little disappointing.īut Chrono Trigger now includes two areas included in the Nintendo DS remake: Dimensional Vortex and Lost Sanctum, adding more gameplay to the original game. The time travel story still has not gotten old, and you can experience the Super Nintendo game on mobile devices.
