I laughed at the "Rune Factory is a knock off of haverst Moon" part. Seriously man, I know this is very old, but Rune Factory is an spin off of Harvest Moon, and thus part of the series. and from the same people, Natsume, although made through colaborations with other studios. Personally I felt Rune Factory Frontier being the Best "Harvest Moon" avaiable on the Wii by far, but to each his own; after all, it's just opinion based.
Animal Parade is my favorite HM title. I've played through the whole storyline at least 3 times. I also have a family in about year 5 after I restarted with all the goddess tools. 😍
@Viviankazune , according to GameFAQs, Animal Parade was released in England sometime in December of 2010. It's a pretty big step up in overall improvement, compared to Tree of Tranquility.
Will you be reviewing Harvest Moon: My Little Shop? I've been addicted to it, it's super cute! Not anywhere near as complex as most HM games, but I'm sure you'd like it. It's pretty much running a shop with mini games, haha.
Small Barn: 3 livestock animals Medium Barn: 5 livestock animals, costs 40 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 30,000 G Large Barn: 8 livestock animals, costs 100 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 60,000 G
You didn't get your cow? I think all I did was go into the barn where you can buy the livestock and talk to the guy. I got it on my first or second day.
As a fan of the Harvest Moon series i must say I look forward to your reviews on them. Thanks again for a fantastic review. If you like any of the past harvest moons you have to like this one.
Honestly, since this one seems to be harder, probably Tree Of Tranquility, it's easier and probably cheaper to buy used. It also has more of the basics, this one has a lot of stuff he left out, including the Circus animals.
I agree. Since they are basically the same price new right now. If anything AP is cheaper. However, the game isn't as easy as ToT, but its more satisfying. AP isn't hard, it just makes you work more for what you can get in ToT.
I've actually played Animal Crossing, as well! The one for the Gamecube and I have the Wild World. I love those. Thanks for the advice! I think I'll get RF:ToD as I like the whole fighting/farming/getting a family combo. But I might also look into Magical Melodies, as well. Thanks for replying back!
hmm i didnt quite catch whether or not you mentioned how long the loading screens take. i heard that there were less. which is good, but call me A.D.D i have an issue more with how long they take then rather the quantity.
Which one do you recommend the most? If you don't mind me asking...I really don't know the difference between any of them, I'm a huge HM fan but I've never played any Rune Factory games and would love to, I just don't know which to start with.
What about the mechanics - how do they compare to ToT? Does farming, mining, etc; feel as compelling? Does it mesh better? I haven't played ToT, but I've been wanting to get this or that one.
I think the iron/upgraded pots make sense. Any game, normal weapons are pretty weak. When you get stronger weapons, it'll become better and have special moves... It makes these upgrades special. :P Iron watering cans are special. :D
Having to mine for ore to upgrade tools is a pretty common trope of the HM series...that's probably the sole reason they included it. Not seeing it's right, but it's to be expected by this series by now. I love HM, but it's an example of a series that doesn't really evolve or innovate often. I just bought Animal Parade, and I actually like it a lot...but I agree with some of your main points about the huge world and the bad camera.
I am thinking about Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny, or this game. I like both the Rune Factory series, and the Harvest Moon series, but I can't decide which one I would like more. Anyone out there who has played both?
Thank you very much for this review! I was debating whether or not to get this game because there were negative comments on it. Like the characters move too slow or it loads to slow and people said they wished they didn't get it. I think i might get it. Great job!
@realgone23 Rune factory 1,2, and 3 were not made by Natsume. Marvelous made the Rune Factory series and Harvest Moon series while Natsume localized it. Just a fact. :3
@coollyaid If they thought they could do it. My last review has the LilWivieiwer taking the lead. I am still there but I took a step back and let him do it.
You should consider reviewing Harvest Moon: Magical Melody. I think it's better than BOTH of the other Harvest Moon Wii games. Magical Melody started life on the GameCube, but has been ported to the Wii since then.
thank you for your response, you should definitely try Harvest Moon A New Beginning for the 3DS, in my opinion this is the best harvest moon since back in the Nintendo 64 days, if not the best ever ;)
you can get a free baby cow from the ranch like a day or two later,depending on when you visit,just go into the horn ranch barn and cain will offer you a pick from 3 calfs and a free brush!
I was thrilled with the time. My first exposure to the Harvest Moon Series was Tale of Two Towns. I never had enough time in the day. Then there was the two towns thing, which was just annoying, it took forever to get to the other town. Mix in the too fast clock and yea... if I wanted time to do anything, I needed to mostly stick to one town, which made it feel like half of a game. Animal Parade was my second game in the series played, I haven't touched ToTT since I got it.
I am playing ToTT now and I feel the same, argh I can't stand that huge path from one town to other, I can't wait to finish the damn tunnel wich will still take forever. I am just finishing year 1 now.
I've only played the one for the ps1...i could still play that because it was almost never ending entertainment...how does this stack up to that and the other versions...?
I got ToT last year for Christmas and I sold it the day after. I absolutely LOVED magical melody and a wonderful life. So, I asked for ToT. I got the game, and HATED the crap out of it. Loading was bad, and I just didn't like it. I'm wondering is I should try this one...
you do know you can upgrade your barn right? Small Barn: 3 livestock animals Medium Barn: 5 livestock animals, costs 40 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 30,000 G Large Barn: 8 livestock animals, costs 100 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 60,000 G
@coollyaid I like hearing the lil wiviewer reviews' it's nice to hear a kids perception once in awhile. It's really honest and especially good if your going to buy the game for a kid
@coollyaid There are 100's of people who just review games. Most of the games are just reviewed by me, but occasionally my kids join in. People have really responded to it and like the perspective they give.
Would you recommend I get Tree of Tranquility or Animal Parade? I'm not going to buy it right away since I just got Tale of Two Towns recently. But I'd just like to know which one would be better for me in the future. Maybe I should watch more lps to see which one I like better, but maybe you could recommend which one I get first?
or if you dont wanna go running around for stuff like seeds and furniture later in the game try buying a phone that will deliver your purchased items to you the moment you buy them and exit the phone screen, if i ever need seeds or most of the other items like machines and plots and clothing etc i just use the harvest moon phone
i agreed with everything you said! the cameras when i first started out.. i was like wtf? i missed like 5 areas for the first month cause of it. as for it being harder... i have 4 of 5 bells already and i'm only on summer year 1. tree of tranquility took me like 2 years to get 4 rainbows. so, no, i don't find this one harder. the long walks are so daunting. especially if you're trying to make friends! BUT i gotta say, i'm LOVING this game. i'm hooked.
great review but I NEED some help with this game. I am now at the red bell in the game and I have all of the ors but now the blacksmith tells me I need to find chloe but I can't find her, and I hear from other people that if you do find her she won't come with you to the blacksmith. has anyone else had this problem and if you have can you please tell me what you did to pass the red bell part. thanks
I dont know whether to get tree of tranquility or animal parade. I want something a little more relaxed, like animal crossing, where you dont really have to do any sort of storyline if you dont want to. can you help?
I haven't played a Harvest Moon game since FoMT, not because all the new ones looked bad or anything, but merely because FoMT has kept me occupied for that long.
Well I always thought it should of been the other way around in ToT where useing the tool should of took less energy and upgrading it gave you the new power. And yes the gimck was the many animals you could ride so yeah. I also really liked the RF games for the DS it was just HM with a sword but it did a lot of stuff pluse having someone water you plants for you is nice. Also your review of ToT was the reason I bought the game and it was great, Ill have to pick this one up down the road.
That's weird. I always found ToT to be harder than AP, because the former lets time move inside buildings, you couldn't separate things in your backpack, you lose stamina too easily (especially during the start, you get tired just by picking weeds), and money was not easy to come by. ToT was a lot harder to manage, and its world felt even more unnecessarily bigger than AP's ever did. I got lost a lot in ToT, and the maps were confusing. I think AP was easier but had less content. o: imho
well, ive played almost EVERY Harvest Moon game!! My faveorite at the moment is Hero of Lef valley due to its story line and characters.. my 1st ever game was DS and im currently playing Animal Parade (started 2 days ago) which i LOVE! i can sorta get over the crappy camera angles since its such an awesome game but it IS frustrating!
Just letting you know in case you didn't, but you don't "have" to plant 1 square at a time. If you hold it down you can plant in 3x3 squares like usual =D
What a great review! Thank you! I mainly played animal parade to marry each of the bachelorettes... Lol. I uploaded the marraiges on my channel!:D IN 1080p HD!! Almost done uploading them all! I completely agree that the storyline in animal parade is much easier to follow and unavoidable. lol. Thank you again for the review! GO HARVEST MOON!
I meant " I love rune factory also (not #2). Sorry. I haven't played any rune factory besides the "Tides of Destiny" one. But I'll take your word for it ;).
What I really liked a lot more about this game then the ToT is that for the bells you don't just collect items, you have to get friendships with people and actually work for it =) I know a lot of people consider this a downer, but I thought it interesting for I got to see more events of the town peope
.. Does anyone like Harvest Moon DS and the Harvest Moon Gamecube versions the best? I grew up with those, and they were some of my first games.. Unfortunately, they're all broken, but.. the memories will forever be there for me. :)
I was going to pre-order, but I couldn't afford it :(. The Rune Factory games are a million times better on the DS. They did do something that annoyed me quite a bit, they removed the Wi-Fi feature from both this and Sunshine Islands. Harvest Moon happens to be one of my favorite game series though so I can't complain. My step-sister wonders how it can be so addicting since I can play Harvest Moon for 16+ hours straight XD!
It's more goal-oriented than Animal Crossing, and has more tangible rewards for putting time/effort into it, and better rewards for playing better. I agree with Kirinoko, though, this game is much better suited to handhelds.
@SoFreakingLegit You should get this one. Although some don't like it, it has all the 'bells and whistles' and goes much further into detail then ToT or any of the other games in the series had. I personally prefer and recommend this, especially if you are into the little details. If you're not, then I'd suggest you get one of the classic titles. Enjoy!
i have been looking all over the internet and im not sure if its just a glitch or something but whenever i stop walking i start sweating no matter how much stamina i have.so is there anything i can do about that cuz its really annoying.
Is this harvest moon game better than Tree of Tranquility? Please answer buying one of the two on my first day of summer and I want to know which is better.
i just got this game today as it just came out in my country. played it for 7+ hours straight so far. it's awesome. found the red bell quest annoying though since i spent 12 game days in the mine trying to find some gold ore. it's way too rare.
Personally, I have the same opinion as him. I think the problem is, I'm just too used to the old play style of Harvest Moon from back when it was just a GB game. I think if 'd started off on the Wii versions of the games, or even the newer DS versions like Grand Bazaar, I'd probably like Rune Factory... But hey, what do I know. :)
I don't particularly agree that Rune Factory is a "cheap knockoff" it fell short of my expectations. I'm glad someone else agrees with me. I liked the idea of it though and hope they improve on furture Wii titles. Animal Parade, in my opinion, is a big improvement on TOT and my second favorite HM title behind A Wonderful Life. The upgrade system was absolutely ridiculous! Though I think that it more than makes up for itself in other areas. Anyway, I'm a big fan of your reviews. Keep it up! C:
@SoFreakingLegit if you want it to be similar to the game cube then get he wii version. (if you still have the game cube game you can play that on the wii.) if you want it to be more like the tradition harvest moon games go for the ds.

He said it felt like a knock-off. Not that it was one. He even says "I know there's another Harvest moon" but it FELT like a knock off.
Animal Parade is my favorite HM title. I've played through the whole storyline at least 3 times. I also have a family in about year 5 after I restarted with all the goddess tools. 😍
This review was actually what got me into Harvest Moon in the first place, and this is still my favorite game!
I have one correction to make: you don't have to plant the seeds one-by-one. If you hold down the A-button you have the option to plant a 3x3 square.
This review was upload the day after my birthday! in 2009! Thanks Wiiviewr!
@Viviankazune , according to GameFAQs, Animal Parade was released in England sometime in December of 2010. It's a pretty big step up in overall improvement, compared to Tree of Tranquility.
Agreed. The camera may suck...but its workable.
Will you be reviewing Harvest Moon: My Little Shop? I've been addicted to it, it's super cute! Not anywhere near as complex as most HM games, but I'm sure you'd like it. It's pretty much running a shop with mini games, haha.
Last week of the year (I start working on them the day after Christmas).
Small Barn: 3 livestock animals
Medium Barn: 5 livestock animals, costs 40 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 30,000 G
Large Barn: 8 livestock animals, costs 100 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 60,000 G
Dude, I was SO physched to see Hamilton make a return. He was/is/ and always will be my fav mayor!
If you hold A when spreading seeds it will drop in a 3x3 square (9 bags of seeds in one drop) really useful I must say!
LOL. At one part you said Harvest Moon Animal Circus! I love your reviews so much! Can you review that game Just Dance? The ads are SO COOL!
You didn't get your cow? I think all I did was go into the barn where you can buy the livestock and talk to the guy.
I got it on my first or second day.
As a fan of the Harvest Moon series i must say I look forward to your reviews on them.
Thanks again for a fantastic review.
If you like any of the past harvest moons you have to like this one.
Hey umm I cant get Kathy to come outside the bar before 16:00. Any ideas? Nice vid btw.
Honestly, since this one seems to be harder, probably Tree Of Tranquility, it's easier and probably cheaper to buy used. It also has more of the basics, this one has a lot of stuff he left out, including the Circus animals.
I agree. Since they are basically the same price new right now. If anything AP is cheaper.
However, the game isn't as easy as ToT, but its more satisfying.
AP isn't hard, it just makes you work more for what you can get in ToT.
I have never played Harvest Moon and now I am really considering it. But should I try out this one or Tree of Tranquility first?
Very nice review as always. I have a feeling that this is gonna be top 10, which will hopefully be out soon :)
I've actually played Animal Crossing, as well! The one for the Gamecube and I have the Wild World. I love those. Thanks for the advice! I think I'll get RF:ToD as I like the whole fighting/farming/getting a family combo. But I might also look into Magical Melodies, as well. Thanks for replying back!

I actually love the fact that you have to mine to power up your tools. Gives me more of a reason to play the game.
Thanks for the review too.
The wii games of harvest moon are so underrated! :(
I think the iron/upgraded pots make sense.
Any game, normal weapons are pretty weak.
When you get stronger weapons, it'll become better and have special moves...
It makes these upgrades special. :P
Iron watering cans are special. :D

Rune Factory is an amazing game that should not be missed....
+Darren Davenport Would you say it's better or worse than Harvest Moon: Animal Parade?
@@TharosTheDragon Yes actually.
@@starietiger9927 - Which?
@@TharosTheDragon Sorry. I'd say it's better.
But that's only because of preference.
You should consider reviewing Harvest Moon: Magical Melody. I think it's better than BOTH of the other Harvest Moon Wii games. Magical Melody started life on the GameCube, but has been ported to the Wii since then.
Another diffrence between AP and Tree of Tranquility is that you
can ocurt the Harvest god, Harvest goddess, Wizard, and Witch!
thank you for your response, you should definitely try Harvest Moon A New Beginning for the 3DS, in my opinion this is the best harvest moon since back in the Nintendo 64 days, if not the best ever ;)

Large Barn: 8 livestock animals, costs 100 Lumber, 50 Material Stone, and 60,000 G
ummmm sooo im trying to decide either tree of tranqulity or animal parade which should i get?
is the story line continued from tree of tranquility?
HM VC edition. It's only five dollars and it's a good test to see if you would enjoy the gameplay.
Wasn't Rune Factory made by the same people? That would explain the similarity.
@coollyaid I like hearing the lil wiviewer reviews' it's nice to hear a kids perception once in awhile. It's really honest and especially good if your going to buy the game for a kid
Who is cooking and getting married and stuff still possible in this game but im really looking forward to it.

Cutie Gal they cost more that way though. Convenient time wise, but not cost wise.

I'm not sure which to get...Animal Parade or Tree of Tranquility?
For someone who's never played a Harvest Moon game in there life which game in the series would be a good 1st pick?
great review but I NEED some help with this game. I am now at the red bell in the game and I have all of the ors but now the blacksmith tells me I need to find chloe but I can't find her, and I hear from other people that if you do find her she won't come with you to the blacksmith. has anyone else had this problem and if you have can you please tell me what you did to pass the red bell part. thanks
@Achille12345 I bought mine on Amazon last year, plus it's got the free shipping. This game is defiantly hard to find in stores.
I dont know whether to get tree of tranquility or animal parade. I want something a little more relaxed, like animal crossing, where you dont really have to do any sort of storyline if you dont want to. can you help?
I reccomended this review. lol I don't know if you were planning it but still... saw it coming.
I don't know how Rune Factory is a nockoff, i have a little logo on the front of mine that says "Part of the Harvest Moon family"
But whatever.
"Everyone from the town that was populated from ToT has abandoned that place and has come to this town" :D
Did you try to get married and having a family in this one or did you bypass that part for a while?
I haven't played a Harvest Moon game since FoMT, not because all the new ones looked bad or anything, but merely because FoMT has kept me occupied for that long.
Well I always thought it should of been the other way around in ToT where useing the tool should of took less energy and upgrading it gave you the new power.

I know a lot of people consider this a downer, but I thought it interesting for I got to see more events of the town peope
wiiviewer are you going to review LEGO Harry Potter, and sonic and saga all star racing
That last sentence of your comment made me think of Billy Mays.
.. Does anyone like Harvest Moon DS and the Harvest Moon Gamecube versions the best? I grew up with those, and they were some of my first games..
Unfortunately, they're all broken, but.. the memories will forever be there for me. :)
I was going to pre-order, but I couldn't afford it :(. The Rune Factory games are a million times better on the DS. They did do something that annoyed me quite a bit, they removed the Wi-Fi feature from both this and Sunshine Islands. Harvest Moon happens to be one of my favorite game series though so I can't complain. My step-sister wonders how it can be so addicting since I can play Harvest Moon for 16+ hours straight XD!
wiiviewr how do you video tape to tv screen
wiiviewer, would you say that this game is good enough for the top ten list of 2009?
ya the players are different both the boy and the girl but they give you a choice to play as the boy or girl from ToT or as the boy/girl from AP
Did you name the baby chicken after Chris Hoffman?
It's more goal-oriented than Animal Crossing, and has more tangible rewards for putting time/effort into it, and better rewards for playing better.
I agree with Kirinoko, though, this game is much better suited to handhelds.
That would also be on Wii.
what's better....
animal parade or tree of tranquility???
should i get tree of tranquility or animal parade?
@SoFreakingLegit You should get this one. Although some don't like it, it has all the 'bells and whistles' and goes much further into detail then ToT or any of the other games in the series had.

i have been looking all over the internet and im not sure if its just a glitch or something but whenever i stop walking i start sweating no matter how much stamina i have.so is there anything i can do about that cuz its really annoying.
the versions are in variety of consoles so every console can experience harvest moon which makes it fair ..
Is this harvest moon game better than Tree of Tranquility? Please answer buying one of the two on my first day of summer and I want to know which is better.
how do you like the adopting wild animals thing?
Lol can you just please tell me which is better? this or tree of tranquility? Please help since a battle video just passed Lol thanks
Whats that shiny thing floating around your character's head?
@gemstone83x Thanks, i done a bit of research and apparently AP is alot harder, but i think ill try it anyway =)
i just got this game today as it just came out in my country. played it for 7+ hours straight so far. it's awesome. found the red bell quest annoying though since i spent 12 game days in the mine trying to find some gold ore. it's way too rare.
Personally, I have the same opinion as him. I think the problem is, I'm just too used to the old play style of Harvest Moon from back when it was just a GB game.

I'm gonna buy my first Harvest moon game...
which would you suggest?
What about Magical Melody for the wii?
I don't particularly agree that Rune Factory is a "cheap knockoff" it fell short of my expectations. I'm glad someone else agrees with me. I liked the idea of it though and hope they improve on furture Wii titles.
Animal Parade, in my opinion, is a big improvement on TOT and my second favorite HM title behind A Wonderful Life. The upgrade system was absolutely ridiculous! Though I think that it more than makes up for itself in other areas. Anyway, I'm a big fan of your reviews. Keep it up! C:
What game didd you prefer..animal parade OR tree of tranquility??
You know that Rune factory is made by the producer as a spin-off of Harvest moon right?
@SoFreakingLegit if you want it to be similar to the game cube then get he wii version. (if you still have the game cube game you can play that on the wii.)
if you want it to be more like the tradition harvest moon games go for the ds.
What game did you prefer.. tree of tranquility or animal parade?
