The Nintendo DS release is, hands down, the Definitive Version of Chrono Trigger. It combines the best of all worlds by enhancing the user experience without the draw backs found in other versions such as load times, controls, and UI issues. That being said, it is technically limited to a 4.88" handheld screen, so unless you have a Nintendo DS/3DS capture card or a hacked console, emulation is your only option when looking to play the Definitive Version of Chrono Trigger on a larger scale. If you think you'd rather experience the original localization, you can always play the SNES version, however, it appears most agree that the updated translation doesn't affect the overall narrative.

After carefully considering all of these benefits with minor drawbacks, Chrono Trigger for Nintendo DS is the game's Definitive Version.

It should be noted that the PC version is slowly creeping up on the throne for this release and should be considered a completely viable alternative to the DS release. While it still has issues the PC port may eventually fix them with future updates.
