The SNES and DS versions also run at different aspect ratios (but almost the same resolution). The SNES is 4:3 with non-square pixels, so the DS version looks thinner. This exaggerates the effect of the DS version’s thinner font even more.
I always felt like the DS version was harder to read; looking at them side by side, I see I wasn’t making things up! The SNES version’s font genuinely has bolder lines that are a bit easier to read.
I’ve been replaying Chrono Trigger lately! First time playing with the original translation in a long time.
The DS version uses a different font from the original - the same one used in the GBA Final Fantasy ports. It’s a thin, very compact varaible-width font.
The SNES version also uses a variable-width font, but it’s a wider font that budgets two pixels for major lines.
