Makes sense. Remember all those classic Square RPGs on Sega consoles.

Square Enix also bought Taito so they had titles from the Bubble Bobble, Space Invaders, Double Dragon, Chase H.Q series on Sega Consoles.

Anything to delay working on a chrono trigger or ff6 remake.

Chrono Trigger is my favorite game of all time.

Every day I pray to whatever benevolent god(s) are out there that CT is never remade/remastered.

If it is, I hope it's everything you want it to be, but I know I won't be touching it.

Same. Chrono Trigger is perfect as is, a remake couldn't possibly improve on it.

[–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

That's fair, I'd want a remaster at the very least, fix the textures etc.

But I love the FF7 remake, I think they could do a beautiful CT remake if they actually put in the heart and soul.

Why?

[–] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

I think you can play very tiny games on them

[–] sness@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Wish they were big enough to crack open and put a raspberry pi in.

[–] Usually_Lurker@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

FYI they are tiny 60mm x 45 mm x 15 mm

2.36” x 1.77” x 0.59” inches

Man I would love if they did Nintendo consoles

[–] lord_ryvan@ttrpg.network 1 points 1 month ago

Square won't. Nintendo did something similar.
