The Official Harvest Moon Fan Club - Roundin' Up The Livestock!

[AzaleaLightning]

I picked up a Wii recently and was checking out the Virtual Console games and I saw Harvest Moon for SNES for $8... I'm thinking about buying it cx

I'm also definitely getting Tree of Tranquility and Animal Parade, I'm really excited to try them out! They look amazing.

Edit: I got Tree of Tranquility! And I love it, holy crap ;~;

I haven't even gotten my farm yet, I'm playing it super slow because of all of the other games I've been playing lately xD; I just got to Souffle Farm (I saved right when my third day starts) and I love how slow the pace is, tbh. Typically with the console Harvest Moon games I like when they're more slow paced (AWL, AnWL) because they have so much more scenery to sit back and enjoy looking at. The handheld games are a little more action-oriented, y'know? Like, I always seem super busy in the handheld games because while the console games have more to offer visually, the handhelds seem to offer a little bit more to do actively, from the Harvest Moon titles I've played.

This series is awesome. :D I'm in!

Name: Cid
Favorite HM Game: Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town
Reason for Joining: I actually made a Harvest Moon game in the Python programming language for my fourth year high school advanced programming class from scratch. That's pretty much a testament of how much I enjoy the series. :p I don't know, I just love it a lot. It's addicting, it's got farming and farm animals, and also because it feels like The Sims in a weird way.

@Azalea: You have Tree of Tranquility? That sounds really cool. I wish I actually played more of the new titles. The last I've played was Rune Factory 2 if I recall correctly, so I'm really not as updated with the series as I'd like to be. :\

[AzaleaLightning]

Welcome, Cid!! Happy to have you here cx

Some of the newer games do seem like... their ideas have run dry, but some of them are just so amazing. I have the newest one (A New Beginning for 3DS) and it is just sooo amazing. The characters have so much more developed personalities than in the previous games where they just repeated the dialogue. They added a lot of Animal Crossing traits too, like the ability to move things around and you build the entire village from scratch - you like build and place the benches, street lamps, roads, etc.

They do get a little confusing sometimes because the newest games have added irrigation systems and are little more confusing with the fertilizer... But they have tons of guides online to help, and there's a bigger variety in crops and livestock.

You should totally pick up one of the newer games if you have the chance/system and such, they are totally worth it *u*

I can't exactly pinpoint what I like about Harvest Moon, but I've always found it to be repetitive, yet very addicting game.

You know, getting to have a farm of your own, raising animals, growing crops, etc. It's been many years since I last played a Harvest Moon game (last I played was FoMT for GBA), but I have yet to find a farming game as good as this. I plan to download Back to Nature from PlayStation Store so I could get kicking at the game again :D

Welcome, EvilSkittles and Isamu Akai! You know, Hero of Leaf Valley is a game I've always wanted to play because of it being a remake of Save the Homeland, but sadly I have no PSP ;c

Awesome! Sign Me Up!

Name: roen52
Favorite HM Game: Another Wonderful Life(Gamecube)
Reason for Joining: While I'm not the best fan of the series having only played two of the games in full being the one for the gameboy whose name eludes me and Another Wonderful Life but I greatly enjoyed them. I don't think I ever married the blond haired bachelor in Another Wonderful Life and always went for either the black haired farmer or the hippy who lived in that tent thing. I have A New Beginning on my 3DS but I haven't touched it yet.

[Isamu Akai]

Hi guys i just want to share this.

yesterday when im playing harvest moon more friends of mineral town
my character got a dream event it is the harvest sprites combine together and
it form the Gourmet

a Very rare event right.....

[AzaleaLightning]

I'm back! I'm sorry I forgot to announce my absence, I've been in New Jersey the past week cx

Roen, I definitely recommend that you give A New Beginning for the 3DS a shot when you get the chance, it's really different from Another Wonderful Life and any of the GameBoy games; it's so unique and fun, you can customize your entire character, farm, village, etc! I added you to the member list as well!

Isamu, I've heard of those weird dreams! I think I got one or two but I never got that one, that sounds a little creepy o_o

So, the Gourmet is just all of the Harvest Sprites combined together? XD

Also, we now have 15 members, that makes me so happy ;o;

I'm near the end of Summer on the first year and I'm really liking it so far though the speed and manner in which the main character can build houses and other building is interesting to say the least.

Name: Yusshin
Favorite HM Game: That's a hard one. I like Harvest Moon 64, Harvest Moon: Magical Melodies and Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life equally. GBA's Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town was fantastic, though! And the 3DS game... Ugh, I lov'em all! :( What's a girl to do.
Reason for Joining: I love Harvest Moon. I love how simplistic it is as well as how it's pretty much the only game of its genre to ever amount to anything. The characters are endearing and the story is enjoyable. Plus, I get to have my own farm without the smell! Baabaa! :D

welcome roen52!!! your 15th member.....

Yeah all the harvest sprites combine and form gourmet it really creeps me out
but its a rare event so im happy (to AzaleaLightning)

[AzaleaLightning]

Welcome Yusshin!! It's nice to have you c: Owning a farm without the smell is probably the best thing about Harvest Moon XD That reminds me of a picture I saw on Tumblr today that I'll link to on the end of this post, I won't directly post the image because of language.

roen52, ah yeah, in ANB you have to hoard SO much stuff it's kind of ridiculous ;n; Some of the stuff you need for building materials is weird too, I think mint or chamomile is needed for one house!

Isamu, can't you marry gourmet too? Does that mean you're really marrying every one of the harvest sprites? o:

Funny Harvest Moon image, linked for crude language. It's Harvest Moon farming vs real life farming xP

[Yusshin]

Maybe the building comes with built-in incense? :v

In any case, I have Twin Towns but I never play it lol... Shame on me!
