The font is Chicago, although it's modified slightly.
The new font is definitely tiny. I'm not worried, though, because I thought DQ4 DS's English font was too small in screenshots, too, and it turned out to be fine on the DS itself.
I really like the new main menu design.

I'd think of more but I think you get the idea.
Definitely don't like how the font looks in the videos. It's not just that it's tiny, it's just flat out hard to read, especially on that background. Maybe it won't be as bad when it's actually on the DS screen, though.
Also, I really do hope there's a way to turn the anime cutscenes off. Interrupting the scene in order to show the scene twice back to back is just dumb.
Still, it's Chrono Trigger. The two screen battle system looks good. Me want.

LOL, why are you sorry?
On a lighter note:

they included the unused Battle music here, so Singing Mountain should be in the game somewhere. I just wish this alternate battle music was the one they used for battles. I never liked the one they used officially.
Like however many others, I'm not a big fan of the font they're using or its size. It's especially bizarre that they have such huge buttons for Attack/Tech/Item and yet they only have tiny centered words in the middle.
But this is Chrono Trigger, still reigning supreme as my favorite single-player-only turn-based RPG after thirteen years, and possibly set to become better than ever with the new dungeons, so it doesn't matter too much. The menu's much less cluttered too, which is great.
I just hope they've added Aim Tabs so Marle doesn't eventually get totally outmoded for physical attacks and Lucca won't have to rely on
. (Although Marle always pulls more than her weight for me anyway with her spells and dual techs and basically everything else.) But who knows if they dared mess with the game balance, really--I'm not sure I would have if I were them.
Also, being able to turn off cutscenes means I just might never watch those things. ♥ Thanks for the option, S-E; I was genuinely worried about that one.

The font looks small, but much like the DQIV font, it's eminently readable on an actual DS unit. The menus are an unbelievable improvement; it's far easier and quicker to navigate through the options than in the SNES version.
Frog's style of dialogue seems to have changed quite a bit, though Gato's silver point song is almost the same.

Best song in the game, IMO.Takeda Kenshi said:

A couple of things I noticed, don't know if it has been said:
The map on the second screen auto-completes.
Quick access to any of the menus, with a touch.
Return of the Anime videos (yay!)

Oh god, I think I am going to have to finally buy a DS.
My absence from Nintendo consoles since the GBA may be coming to a close.

They're not fighting characters..that's like giving Alena healing spells. Miracle Shot/Lucca's spells do perfectly fine anyway as well, and Marle does good with some dual attacks (Ice Toss comes to mind). No real need to make them better attackers.
When's the game coming out in Japan?

This is one of the few game that I classify as a "love at first sight".
The moment I heard the birds at the beginning I somehow knew I was going to have a blast... but it was actually much more than that.

I was just checking Amazon.co.uk to see if it had any pre-order bonus or something (like 95% Amazon.co.uk has nothing of the kind compared to the Amazon.com) and just saw that the game is going to be released on 30 Jan 2009..
So I better grab it off ebay next week, because I'm not waiting 2 more months for it.

Don't worry, there are at least 20 more super awesome games you can play on DS too, it won't be just for this.

looks exactly like the original version. Not that I'm pissed since I never played it
are you against importing or something. Plus, it would probably be cheaper to import it
