Board 8 > Chrono mother fucking Trigger.

(+) Yeah! (+)

This is the game of the hour. Can we talk about it too much?

NO.

at my friend Dan's house in elementary school so it had to be 1995 because I didn't own an SNES yet but I had one in 1996
---

On a PS3 a few years ago as a PS1 Classic.
---

It's on PS3? Dammit I fucked this poll up.
---

i still have the DS version unopened from like 3 years ago when i bought it.

Super Famicom, hell yeah!
---

2010 for me on emulation, one horrible wrong that was corrected, such a masterpiece.
---

First time on the PS1 when it came out with FF4.

96 or 97 when my brother felt I was ready to move on past mario.
---

Got hyped as hell for this game reading about it in Nintendo Power, begged my dad to get it the day it came out. He did and I played the crap out of it over the next four months. I've gotten every rerelease since, including the crappy Playstation one.

I still have the original cartridge.

Probably one of the first 5 games I ever emulated

This was roughly my case also, my Dad went out of his way to get games I was really hyped for.

Earthbound on release
Mario 3 on release (We drove around for hours trying to find a toy store that had it in stock.)
Chrono Trigger on release
Secret of Mana on release

Final Fantasy III(VI) had to wait a bit but I got it for Christmas shortly after it came out.
---

First tried it on the DS. I believe I got to around the part with Robo, but it just didn't grab me so I got sidetracked by something else and just never got back to it.
---

being in europe it didnt initially come out here till 2008 on the DS

that didnt stop me emulating it in like 2003 when i was 7. loved it
---

I actually played Chrono Trigger because of its contest shenanigans.

I got to say, not a whole lot of games would have lived up to that kind of hype, but it sure did.
---

On a computer in 2006. Instantly fell in love. Went on to purchase the SNES and DS carts both, eventually.
---

I've literally never played it at all. But I've heard great things.


I'll preorder it if there's a remake, or a solid PC release perhaps..

---

first new game i ever bought with my own money. that was a long time of saving up allowance. i think it was 95, but it might have been 96. before the N64 came out for sure.
---

On a Super Nintendo in 96. My brother got it for christmas in 95, but I wasn't allowed to play it until he beat it.
---

Sometime after the first character contest. I was like who's Crono and why is he so popular? I immediately downloaded on an emulator.

I rented it on Blockbuster's $2 Tuesday and the cashier told me I was renting a gold mine.

I got to the Golem Twins before I had to return the rental and I tried to rent it the next week but all their copies were rented out. :(
---

04 on PS2 at first but the slow run times made me emulate one year later
---

OGCT
---

its criminal that there's not a decent sequel to this game

Used to rent it a lot from Blockbuster in the spring of 98 and it quickly became my favorite game. Eventually Blockbuster stopped carrying it, and I was disappointing and wanted to play it again. Sort of odd looking back since I beat it and I've never really been huge on replaying games. Anyway, I never played the SNES version again due to it being rare/expensive, and I eventually got it three years later on the PS1.
---

On the SNES, and I still have my copy.
---

probably around 1998 via emulation? maybe 99?
---

PS1, but I didn't finish until playing DS

FF Chronicles version on PS1 for me
---

Played it on the PS1 first.
---

On a computer in the early 2000s... I was really into DBZ at the time and on a bunch the sites I was reading about the DBZ SNES games on, they'd list Chrono Trigger as something "related" because of Toriyama's work on the art. Such a weird way to discover the game, but so glad it happened. Been my favourite of all-time since then and not much else comes close.
