Yes, Chrono Trigger is Coming to North American VC, Too
Only one platform/region combination is missing now. Can you guess which?

At this point, we really should just whip up a release matrix to keep track of things, since the various platforms Square Enix's classic Chrono Trigger is hitting and when is confusing, as we recently mentioned.

Following confirmations of Chrono Trigger's eventual release on PlayStation Networks and Wii Virtual Consoles in other parts of the world, the ESRB has confirmed one holdout, by issuing a rating for the title for the Wii VC, ensuring the title's North American release at some point. While it might be fun to see the title release near the end of August, and therefore 16 years to the month of its Super Nintendo debut, I'm thinking some of us are hoping it's sooner. When we hear of when that might be, we'll let you know.

This means the only uncertain release of the game is whether or not it will come to the PlayStation Network in Europe. Here's hoping!

Oh, what the heck, here's that release matrix because I love you guys and gals.
