The upcoming DS
version of Chrono Trigger will apparently be slightly less of a straight port than previously expected. If the Japanese Toy - R - Us
website is to be believed, players will be able to catch and raise monsters, then fight them in an arena for various prizes. Using the DS local connectivity, friends can
