When I was 9 or 10, I got a used SNES in Gamestop, back in 2003. That was back when they had tons of old used retro stuff. I got a lot of games from there as well. I also got several SNES games on Ebay as well, not just Gamestop.
So even though the SNES was slightly before my time (I think they stopped selling around 1997, when I turned 4), I still got to have one as a significant part of my older childhood. Was very fond of it. So I have a kind of twisted nostalgia that's different from others who played one during its heyday.
It's been a long time since I got an old used game, but from time to time I often think of getting some again. So I'll look to see if there's a Chrono Trigger on SNES available whenever I do.
One thing that's concerned me a little is that I've heard that a lot of SNES games had a limited battery for their memory. After a couple of decades go by, the games can't save your progress anymore. So far that misfortune hasn't befallen any of my copies (last I checked), but I've been wary of this ever since I heard about it.
I'll see what I can do!

The actual cartridge is pretty expensive, so your best bet is to probably emulate it or play it on the Virtual Console.
