Chrono Trigger
(Nintendo DS, SNES, Wii)
Square's groundbreaking role-playing game -- featuring multiple sidequests and endings, a unique battle system, and gorgeously detailed sprite graphics -- was developed by a "dream team" including Hironobu Sakaguchi, Kazuhiko Aoki and composer Nobuo Uematsu, known for their works on the Final Fantasy series; and Yuuji Horii and artist Akira Toriyama, known for their works on the Dragon Quest series. Chrono Trigger for the Nintendo DS will be remastered and feature a dual screen presentation, Touch-Screen functionality, a brand new dungeon and Wireless Play mode.
