Site news -- Public Service Announcement

Added: June 28, 2009 -- 11:10AM PST Just a quick administrative update today. Some of you might have noticed that the site has been serving popup ads for a while now. This was never my intent. Years ago when the site opened, I made use of a web counter service called Nedstat. A couple years ago they were bought and became Motigo Webstats. For a period of time I noticed that when viewing the homepage in Opera or Internet Explorer, a popup would load. I didn't notice it earlier because I use Firefox with NoScript as my default browser, but after some investigation it became clear that it was the doing of the Motigo Webstats icon I placed on the homepage for stat tracking. Because of this I have stopped using them and the popups should go away. You'll notice that there are no banners or ads on the site and I'd like to keep it that way for as long as possible. Popups, particularly in this day and age, are simply unacceptable and for that I'm sorry.

Site news -- Small Update

Added: December 6, 2008 -- 4:20PM PST Just a small update for now. I've added the Japanese and USA release dates for Chrono Trigger DS, as well as videos for two Japanese commercials for its DS release. In the future we should have things like name changes because of the updated script and details on the new areas in the game.

Industry news -- Chrono Trigger DS Release Date

Added: August 19, 2008 -- 1:49PM PST According to this article over at Kotaku, the DS port of Chrono Trigger will be released in North America on November 25th. Rejoice!

Industry news -- Sweet Merciful Heaven

Added: July 1, 2008 -- 10:49PM PST http://www.square-enix.co.jp/ctds/ This is all I have to say. Not a confirmation of a DS Chrono Trigger but painfully obvious that it's the case. Remake or port, I don't care. The second it's out, it's mine.

Miscellaneous news -- Making Money with Chrono

Added: March 26, 2008 -- 12:26PM PST A friend of mine alerted me to a link that compares the money you'd have made today if you bought stock in Apple in 1995 to the money you'd earn if you sold a sealed copy of Chrono Trigger on eBay, and well..I think we know where this is going. You can read about the power of the Trigger by clicking on this Video Game Price Charts link.

Site news -- Four Out of Four Stars

Added: August 10, 2007 -- 8:50PM PST A Chrono Trigger review written by the always entertaining Tim Rogers has been posted by Action Button.Net, and not to spoil it or anything, but he gives it four out of four stars. The man is one who knows quality when he sees it - I happen to share his opinion that Super Mario Brothers 3 is the best video game of all time. Don't even try to argue against it! You can check the review out over at Action Button.Net.

Site news -- Your Ad Here

Added: March 25, 2007 -- 12:32PM PST I found some nice pieces of history today so I figured I'd share. I've put up commercials I found for Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, and most interestingly the Satellaview. They're all in Japanese so if anybody can translate them into English for me, I'd really appreciate it. You can find the commercials at the Chrono Trigger At A Glance, Chrono Cross At A Glance, and Satellaview sections, respectively.

Site news -- Fans are the Best

Added: February 02, 2007 -- 5:25PM PST We've got two more fan submissions up tonight. The first is a page of homemade sheet music. Chip Zoller sent us his transcription of the organ music from the Manoria Cathedral. You can find it at the Chrono Trigger Sheet Music section of the site. In addition, Dave sent us a great piece of fanart featuring those creepy mutants from 2300AD. You can view his fanart over at the Chrono Trigger Fanart section. Enjoy!
