I've played and beaten CT many times through an emulator. If my three options are a piss poor port for PSX, $100 copy cart only from some greasy haired fuck, or through ZSNES, I will take the latter.
It is also clear that FFXIII is a fucking disaster. I think the FF vs. XIII thing sealed it for me. It seems like Square wants to distance themselves from consoles entirely and FFXIII is the ugly beast that is making sure they have no other choice but to go to handhelds.
