Frantic Farming for DS
Plowing the fields, planting the crops and harvesting the produce, sounds mundane but boy can it be addictive in a video game. I found that out when I played Harvest Moon Friends of Mineral Town long ago. Now there is more good news for Harvest Moon fans. Two new Harvest Moon games have been released.
The first is Harvest Moon: Frantic Farming for the DS. Should be available at retail stores for $29.99. Set in the world of last year’s DS game Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness, the Frantic Farming title continues the story of the island and the residents.
There are 12 playable characters to choose from, each with their own storyline and abilities. Solve the mystery of why the crops are popping up everywhere and growing out of control. The island is threatened by an avalanche of vegetables. Playable in a variety of modes including Story mode, Mission mode and the puzzling mode of Score Attack and Free Play. This game sounds interesting and I do love a good Harvest Moon game, I’ll probably pick up a copy and let you know what I think.
Magical Melody for the Wii
The second game is Harvest Moon: Magical Melody for the Wii. It’s a re-release of the GameCube version ported to the Wii. This one I’m not as excited about for the simple reason that I played it on the GameCube and I found it to be very slow and boring. Planting crops and making friends took a long time and just navigating from one area of the map to another was slow. Other fans must have enjoyed it and apparently were asking for a Wii version to be released and their wish was granted. This game is exclusive to Game Stop and sells for $29.99. I may try it later but I’m not rushing out to get it. If you play it, I’d be interested to know what you think.
im not sure why they didnt redo A Wonderful Life instead of magical melody. i’d actually go out and buy it if they did
it was redone. the sequel to it was Another Wonderful Life. The only difference in it though… was that you could play as a girl, and there were cheats in the game ( money and items galore ). I don’t think that the cheats were in the first one….
–I hope this was what you were talking bout

They did redo A Wonderful Life, The sequel to it was Another Wonderful Life where you can play as a girl. They came out with Another Wonderful Life a little bit after they came out with the original one.

oh thats right, i vaguely remember that coming out for PS2.
i also remember it being slower and had loading screens for everything
Farming games I have play a lot but online games only. Online games are more interesting when it comes to farming, we can steal from others crop when it is fully ready to harvest. In some of the games, we have to design our farm to look attractive by earning money from sealing the crops, which we grow in our farm.
I have not play Harvest Moon edition but I have played barn buddy, farm town and farm villa. Now I want to the new style of farming games, the Harvest Moon series.
