I’ve always said that Iwata Asks is one of the best insider sources on the web, and Iwata’s latest interview with Hironnobu Sakaguchi, creator of Final Fantasy, reinforces that fact. After discussing development of his latest title ‘The Last Story’, Sakaguchi claimed that working with the limited technology of the Wii has actually been a liberating experience.
I am currently hip-deep in Sakaguchi’s latest RPG Lost Odyssey, which got me thinking about all the awesome games I’ve played in the past courtesy of the Gooch, including my personal favorite, Chrono Trigger. In the middle of my ponderings, this video shows up in our tips email, containing footage of Chrono Resurrection, the 3D remake of Chrono Trigger that Square Enix put a stop to back in 2004. The video, uploaded by project lead Nathan Lazur, depicts what would have been a Chrono Trigger fan’s wet dream. *wistful sigh* Damn lawyers. Thanks for sending in the vid anyway Mathew!
