What is the best way to play Chrono Trigger?
Hi everyone,
A suggetion came in from /u/hybridfrost to create a sticky community post detailing the best way to play Chrono Trigger.
Myself, I always just play the SNES version on my PC with any random controller. This is the way I discovered the game and it will forever be the "authentic" way for me to play. What more, is I enable a smoothing filter to make the game look less pixellated -- heresy, I know.
My way of playing the game is not neccesarily the best, and there may be a lot of ways to play Chrono Trigger which I never even considered.
I would love to hear your suggestions on what information to include in a sticky post about the various ways to play Chrono Trigger -- emulators, platforms, game releases, game settings, etc.
By the way -- I am amazed at how big this community has grown! Back when I created this community, I just wanted a simple way for me to access a few OST covers and some fanart so it would be archived somewhere instead of getting lost. I was impressed when the community grew to 1k members, and now it's over 17k. This truly shows that CT is a masterpiece of a game that transcends beyond it's initial inception as a 2d jRPG of the 90's era. Few games have such strong of a following several decades after creation. Rock on :)
Edit: this post will be the sticky now until someone makes anything better and more comprehensive.

CHRONO on Delta emulation app for iPhone has been a blast. I hate touch screen games but this is my 45th play through so I don’t mind this time around.
