I played the DS version. After the shockingly poor FF conversions on PS1 and GBA by Tose I was surprised to see them mentioned in the credits of the DS port of Chrono Trigger because it's brilliant. They even managed to get the sound right.
The extra dungeons are purely optional and a total pain. My advice is not to even bother with them and just do the normal end game side quests for each character.

I still think it's the best Snes game ever made. Earthbound and Super Metroid come very very close, but there's something about Chrono that puts it ahead for me.
Possibly Frog.
True. If you listen closely, you can hear mountains being split.0 -

I hereby revoke all of your A&R membership cards until the situation is resolved :pac:
On a similar subject, here's a technical question for anyone who knows - I usually change (or have Enternow change!
) snes battery backups before playing an RPG or something time consuming in case they vanish.
In the case of Earthbound though, I left the original battery and it did me fine. Looking at this game, it would appear nobody really played through it. (or else they kept it in mint condition).
Does anyone know at what point the battery backup starts being used on a cart? If no save was ever entered, would the battery remain unused? Likewise, if a save was deleted, does it stop being used?
Or would it be used from the moment it was attached to the cart?0 -

Seems to depend on how well made the carts are. I have a Legend of Zelda that has saves on it from when it was first played. Nintendo games seem to hold their charge for years.
I have a Philips CDi with a battery as dead as Princess Diana. Quality means a lot :P

Me too, but I have the excuse of not having anywhere to play it at the moment. I could to the whole emulator thing but Id rather wait and play it on my snes later. Only played one hour of Earthbound too and I still haven't got to play full speed fzero.
You have no excuse enternow and its shameful, utterly appalling.0 -

I really don't have an excuse in fairness. Dedicated games room, crt tv, Snes & copy of the game...yet I still don't 'feel' like its time to play it. I'll get to it at some stage
I did that with a lot of games over the years. The end result was me never playing through RPGs
Have made a real conscious effort with them over the last two years. Started with Panzer Dragoon Saga on lend from Retr0 and have gone through loads of them. Don't put them down now until they're finished
