  • I love all the Harvest Moon games except this one and TT because the animals were too stupid to feed themselves when they were outside :[

  • how do you like the adopting wild animals thing?

  • hola

    

  • I found it for 13 euro's so it was worth the upgrade xD

  • A Wonderful Life is my favorite but that's just me

  • plzzz litsten to me uploader please tell me where can i download harvest moon animal parade iso not torrent just give me a link please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @psydarkmew123 it's for the wii

  • The Upgraded Tools is nothing new to this version. I remember having to do the same thing in just about every harvest moon game I played.

  • Did you name the baby chicken after Chris Hoffman?

  • lucklely tides of destiney is here to save the day!!!

  • you have to buy a copper or iron even gold to use the skill...FINAL FANTASY SYNDROME!!!

  • Here's a question for you, should I get this game, or tree of tranquility first.

    I just got a wii. Would you say its ok to just skip ToT? Would I miss anything?

  • Honestly I prefer Rune Factory more than Harvest Moon. I prefer being able to fight monsters and stuff.

    Plus fooin Rune factory feels more important, when you need to recover energy from fighting,

  • saya suka harvest moon

  • Second I heard you say "RUU EN FAK TORY" I lost interest in this review.

  • Haha.... you sound furious the whole way through.

    "You EVEN have to choose a COW...."

  • @Giremsix You do? haha great. Looks like im not the only one who thinks so.

  • Comment removed

  • this game is soo fun, my fave will always be hm64. i still lay it to this day :)

  • I think one problem of the game is the time.. It's too fast!! @.@ I know a lot of people complain that it's too slow but I still always find myself being late for stuff. I'm weird like that XD

  • @meowmeowfan O_o too fast....I think the time is great on AP you don't have too rush like you did in ToT too get your chores done lol

  • @Maybebluechels Yeah it's true. But i make it a habit of talking to everyone everyday. So sometimes I reach Harmonica Town at 17:10 and I'm like... "D'OH I MISSED!" lol XD

  • @Shirarezaru lol I easily found ToT Dx But I am happy now thank you~ :D

  • @Shirarezaru I'm not sure when but the workers at Gamestop told me they only sell used copies but even that gets sold out. I went to pretty much all the Gamestops where I live and nothing Dx I ended up buying a new copy at this game store for like $20 more than what Gamestop was selling it for. >:0

  • I wish Natsume came out with a Rune factory where you could choose the option to be a boy OR girl. I loved animal parade and since there were 3 save files I married Chase, Luke, and Wizard (Gale) :3. wiiviewr I love your videos and I hope you keep on continuing your reviews cause they make me laugh to death :)

  • Lol you cracked me up when you said "Aparently, everyone from the town that was populated in Tree of Tranquiity has ABANDONED THAT PLACE"

  • @GamePlayer110 I think there both great to be honest.

  • The big thing I hate about this game is how slowly time would pass. By the time finish my work it's only 9-10AM :/ And that's including me walking around the island and giving gifts to people. It's torture when you have to wait for certain events too. XD I can't remember the last time I've actually seen nighttime in this game

  • where do you buy it ?

  • I went to gamestop to buy this game and they tell me it's been discontinued and I can buy a used copy in GUAM!! I live in the U.S. O:< And I can't buy stuff online.. why meeeeee?!?!?! T____T

  • 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 bought the game online. Can't wait to get it! <3

  • 58 seconds in calls it animal circus?!?!!? im so confused

  • .. 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. :)

  • hey do u play hm sunshine islands if u do ur awesome

  • i like the rune factory series (although the first two weren't that good) 3 and frontier are awesome!!!!!

  • i also hate how you have to pay to get your ores refined :(

  • This guy is such a sperglord. Lol the parts you complain about are things that add a bit of depth to the game and make it more difficult and even if it's "Annoying" it takes time and delays the amount of time it takes before the game gets boring.

  • My favorite one and all time favorite is Harvest moon 64 first one that i got when i was little and set me to never stop playing games like this one

  • you idiot, rune factory is a spin off of harvest moon, so dont call it a knock off

  • This is my first harvest moon game and I loved it. Make me want to try other harvest moon games as well. It is simple yet so addicting.

  • You do realize that the reason Rune factory is a cheap knockoff of Harvest Moon is because it was made BY the same company. Although, Frontier did not seem as good as Rune factory 3.

  • My first games of Harvest Moon were A Wonderful Life and Another Wonderful Life. Both basically had the same story though I played Another Wonderful Life more since we bought it and didn't get it from gamefly. My friends have told me that they loved this version, and my father lost my game so I made him buy me another one. This was last year and didn't get the game out of him until saturday! I can't wait to play this game I miss it!

  • o, and one more thing, how come you can only hold 3 species of animals, if u upgrade your barn u can hold like 6 animals, so it makes it totally pointless to just allow u to have 3 kinds of animals. thts the main thing tht bothers me. again, i just dont understand

  • i agree on the tools, to much work to find the certain metals for the level of tools. not only do you have to find the metals, but its even harder to refine them to the correct metal. plus, u have to go in order, so u cant just skip to gold from something like iron. i also dont like how you have to buy other plots, i mean the other ones are litterly on your land, you need to pay like 70000 just for something thats on your land anyway. i just dont get it

  • I think the only harvest moon they got completely right was Harvest moon for N64 it was the best in my opinion.

  • hey wii viewr can you do harvest moon 64 or harvest moon musical melody? I know you dont take requests much but i think you should review them

  • Lol, "Buy it now." I have ToT and was thinking of getting this one :D

  • 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.

  • This game looks amazing. I tried finding it but couldn't find it. I home my trip to Walmart will be successful, but if not I'll just order it.

  • does this game end , i really hope you can play and carry on for as long as you like ??????????

  • @scitch224 i only played wonderful life and in the end ur player dies dunno about the other parts

  • what's better....

    animal parade or tree of tranquility???

  • @flyfallnite Theres only one way to find out.... :P

  • Why would anyone ignore the story? The story is like the best part of Harvest Moon....

  • Rune Factory Frontier is probably a better game than either of the Harvest Moon games you've reviewed, you shouldn't knock it off so casually.

  • I'm not sure which to get...Animal Parade or Tree of Tranquility?

  • and also ruin factory isnt tryin to impress some nerd

  • ya this guy needs to review his own game oh wait he cant why? because he dosent have one well his would probly suck anyways it would be to easy if he changes anything like he complaines about in this video

  • Animal parade!!!!XD THE BEST!! xp

  • I Think There's A New HM Out...

  • You know that Rune factory is made by the producer as a spin-off of Harvest moon right?

  • i havent enjoyed a harvest moon as much as i enjoyed Back to Nature on PS1, most if not all of the other harvest moon games just cant get the towns people right, they only have a few lines, very rarely interact with eachother and lack a decent daily routine, they just dont seem alive to me. The actual farming gets better every game, but i want to feel like part of a community as i did in back to nature rather than a farmer in a town full of robots....

  • @Legopancake back to nature is a classic and awesome i tries to buy it on psn mut i needed 1 more dollar cuz i also bopught a 15$ COD map pack :(

  • @Legopancake Yeah i agree, maybe they should add more lines and voices and interact more too.

  • @Legopancake Back to nature is my favorite Harvest moon.

  • @Lego i have to wonder if you've tried them. and also if BtN was your first one. because it was so long ago, standards weren't very high. can't say the daily routines of BtN are better than any of the recent ones, but its true they should step the NPCs up. they have one NPC crushing on another, but nothing ever happens. perhaps their relationship progresses and they can get together if you take too long or something. or maybe NPCs should seek YOU out sometimes. oh, the ideas...

  • @Legopancake The people in Animal Parade and Tree of Tranquility seem to have fairly good personal lives if you bring up their heart levels - in fact, they'll even partake in their own cut scenes just involving eachother - also - the lines devlop quite well and change with season, weather, if your married or have had a child or if they are married or have a child and various other factors. Though not quite as good as btn they did quite well..But that's just my opinion....

  • I can't wait for it to come! Both Gamstops where I live were sold out. So I ordered onine where it was backordered. D: I'm excited. ; u ; Ive been playing Another Wonderful Life until it comes.

  • @Chibixnation i know what you mean i was a little pissed off until i went to the gamestop site and searched where they had the game. Hope that helps.

  • @puddingsoupi I did search. It said there was no stores within 100 miles that have this game.

  • @Chibixnation Sorry i didnt know i guess it depends on where you live

  • wow the game play is faster then harvest moon magical melody i can't wait to get this game ^_^

  • Dude, I was SO physched to see Hamilton make a return. He was/is/ and always will be my fav mayor!

  • HEARVEST MOON FOR SNES....THE BEST can't beat the clasics^^

  • @suda350z Excuse me but... HARVEST MOON FOR N64.... THE BEST can't beat the sequels^^

  • can you use a gamecube controler to play this? or does it have to be a wii controller?

  • i didnt get a free cow...i did on my 1st playthrough tho..

    rip off..

  • WHY CANT THEY MAKE THEM LIKE A WONDERFUL LIFE!? THATS WAS AWESOME!

  • Worst thing about this game is that you're forced to do the storyline or you are stuck with crappy tools.

  • I've played both but I prefer AP way more than TOT. I agree with the mining ore then upgrade then use the boosts . -_-

    In the Rune factory you can level up without the ores though. c:

  • I neeeeeed help, idk wat game to buy Tranquility or this oneee ?

  • @GerardWayIshSmexi

    Definitely Animal Parade. Better graphics, better game play. It's just like an upgraded version of Tree of Tranquility.

  • @ 2:05 *sigh* Just like Runescape...

    The photography thing reminds me of the photography side quest from Wind Waker :D (If I'm talking about the wrong Zelda game, sorry -.-)

  • Tree of traquility is very fun, but I thought the game lacked a bit because I didn't imedeatly play through the story and didn't unlock the new people or ares very quickly, leaving me bored by my first winter in the game. it's probobly my fualt, but i wanted to build up my farm and get some animals before jumping into the main story. When I did unlock everything i had fun. Now that Animal Parade is on the cheap ill proboby pick it up. I love harvest moon and hope this game delivers.

  • How many files can you have just 2 or 4 like in Magical Melody??

  • i like this game but i don't have this i have Harvest moon:Tranquality of tree

  • i like this game but idon't have this i have Harvest moon:Tranquality of tree

    

  • "Buy it now!"

    Lol!!

    

  • Magical Melody is better just saying.

  • Buy it now i agree, but the question is where and how?

    I called every single game shop like EBGame in around 200 KM of where i live and no one have it new or preowned. XD

    I also tried to buy it online like EBAY, but of course it was a ripoff they gave me the wrong game... =s

  • @Achille12345 I bought mine on Amazon last year, plus it's got the free shipping. This game is defiantly hard to find in stores.

  • @TheFrenchtea I guess i should try Amazon even if i get ripoff again i guess it's only around 20-40$ so it's not a big waste of money. =P

  • 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.

  • @ThePhantomFanatic from what I have been researching (my girlfriend just bought the game and I want to know more about it...) Animal Parade is better than Tree of Tranquility

  • @iloveschlau Thank you!

  • Why did this game remembered me from minecraft...?

  • @KrouchKauai ???

  • Lol Rune Factory is a knockoff Harvest Moon? It's like a side-series. Made by the same company. I consider it part of Harvest Moon

  • @OrangeMask96 Indeed, take for example Rune Factory Frontier it is one of the best Harvest Moon like game i ever played...

  • i have harvest moon ds and its got bad reviews and scores 4 some reason but i LOVE IT!!!! It's basically all the same except for the story to save the harvest goddes which on ds you have to work on your farm and once in a while a sprite will pop up and u will get him to help you work on your farm if you want. The only thing tht sucks is u have to save the harvest goddes before you get married :(.. Good reviw

  • I love this game, and the Rune Factory series! Both are fun and addicting! <3

  • I LOVE Rune Factory but I like Animal Parade better! No matter what I always marry Luke ;D. I really like the few new characters like the Wizard dude he's awesome!

  • tumbs up if you think this game is awsome

  • My favorite HM game will always be "Harvest Moon: (More) Friends Of Mineral Town"

    It was my first one, too. :)

  • i agree with you i hated the unessesary long walks you had to take to get from point a to point b but other than that its an awsome game

  • I can't find this game anywhere!! Does anyone know if they're available in England, or will I have to import it?

    I really want this, ToT was really fun!!

  • @Viviankazune,TPB and dolphin emu will make you smile.

  • @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.

  • I don't know i you were trying to be funny

    BUT I LAUGHED MULTIPLE TIMES

    LOL .-. you are the best.

  • Hmm feels like the graphics are lacking in some places in Animal parade, compared to TOT, for example: The mines. But other then that, the game looks good, as the graphics dont bother me TOO much. XD

  • i hate it when people compare this classic game series to "farmvile"

    i find that offensive.

  • Is the energy bar a lot nicer on here than it is on ToT? I am picking up my copy of Animal Parade tomorrow and am curious.

  • if your using the classic gamecube controller for this, could you use the c stick to move the camera? like in a wonderful life?

  • 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 like AWL better and then TOT is good too

  • I like harvest back to nature more :(

  • lmao animal circus...

  • Ugh I dunno which one I want to buy ToT or AP.. D:  They both look awesome.

  • ToT becouse it was more of a challenge and it just seemed to be a better game.

  • Should I get ToT or AP

  • rune factory 1 2 and 3 are all made by Natsume which is the same company who created harvest moon. so technically it isnt a knockoff

  • @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

  • This game looks awesome! Im going to buy a Wii just to keep playing the Harvest Moon Games!!! =]

  • Get a ds and play Rune Factory 3. Frontier isint the best in the series. I'm surprised you thought it was the only RF game.

  • Well I was going to watch the rest ofthe video until you bashed Rune Factory. Just shut up and play Rune Factory 3 best game ever and it makes Harvest moon cry in a corner.

  • Can anyone recommend me a good harvest moon game for ds? I've only played Runs Factory because it has fighting. But I might give Harvest Moon a try.

  • 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

  • Your voice...(starts laughing hysterically) :)

  • I think that when you level up your skill by using a tool a lot, you'll have decreased stamina loss from using that certain tool. The power up only becomes available when you have an upgraded tool.

  • is there an ending to this game? when it ends does it end for good or can you continue playing on the same save file? cif you dont go along with the story, can you do whatever you want for as long as you want until you start with the story again?

  • thanks i loved this tree of tranquility but was unsure on this one so rented it and tot became my second fav game :)

  • Comment removed

  • is the story line continued from tree of tranquility?

  • the first harvest moon game i've played was another wonderful life. kick ass game :D i have animal parade and its pretty overall, just some things are hard but then it gets easy!!!

  • The first Harvest Moon game I played was Friends of Mineral Town for the Gameboy Advanced. I have to say, it was by far the best one of all time, everything about it was perfect, in my opinion! Second best would be Magical Melody (I played it for Wii, the controls on the Game Cube looked a lot easier, it took time to get used to the Wii versions way of equipping items!)

    From reading the comments, I'm beginning to think we all have a bit of a bias for the first Harvest Moon game we played! xD

  • I like the game but sorry I didnt like your comments on the game I would enjoy it better with the mute being on sorry no offense

  • lol

    

  • how do you take out the watering can?/. lol

  • @MegaKookiemonster

     Haha I didnt get that either(:

    What you do is press the down button on the control pad (+)

    and then select the watering can. hope that helped!

  • Lol at the arguments over RF and HM. Personally, I thought this was the best HM game ever (besides the N64 version, that was the original and best). I felt like I was never bored and had plenty to do. The storyline was more immersive and the relationship side-quests had more depth and events. I've also played RFF, and i was bored out of my frickin' mind. Literally. The storyline wasn't entertaining for me, and this is coming from someone who LOVES RPGs. Anyways, HM AP is a FANTASTIC upgrade~ :']

  • 2:20 - 2:22 ewww. You picked up 2 junk ores XD

  • you ARE SO AWESOME :D

  • you can actually plant seeds 3x3 instead of one by one. the game doesn't actually tell you how to do it (which was irritating for the first 3 season's of the game -_-) but i figured it out when i was trying to stop my cat from spilling my drink. anyways..you have to shake your remote to get a 3x3.

  • ...How could Rune Factory be a cheap knockoff if it's /made by the same people/...?

  • @B4K4xNi Exactly. That line always confuses me when I see this review.

    (Rune Factory in terms of looks is far prettier anyway...>.> )

  • @HikariBun Prettier for sure...I do have to say, the whole Runey thing in the Wii version kind of ruined some stuff for me thoguh, they were a pain D:

  • in the TOT version, the quality was really good, but in this one its not too great. Besides that, i love this game :D

  • a ami me costo 10 pesos se las meten

  • where do you buy this game??? I've looked EVERYWHERE and cant find it!

  • @seal339 amazon.com

  • @seal339 I got mine at gamestop. If you can't find the game at the nearest gamestop, you can ask them if they have the game in any other gamestop. 

  • @reversingmemories kay. I asked gamestop and no one had it but thats ok. Im buying it off amazon. Thanks though!

  • Like this if harvest moon 64 was the best

  • @vincentbelanger1 Funny that you mention that. I was just saying that to my brother. It was the first one I played and definitely my favorite out of all of them :)

  • @vincentbelanger1 no harvest moon incarnation will ever beat the 64 version my friend : )

  • ive only played the harvest moon games for the gamecube and they were very addicting but i was thinking of buying a this wii one... hmm

  • About the iron, copper, and whatnot watering cans/scythes and such...don't look at it so negatively =/. It doesn't need to make sense, it's just part of the gameplay.

  • The only problems I have with this game are the camera, all the walking, and the fact that each day is really long. Its a little TOO long for me. I also don't really like how everything is like an anime style. In the older games, everything was more real and less anime which I prefer. You wont believe this but in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life, NOBODY had oddly colored hair!!! :O

    But I like this game a lot :D

  • @TheRedfire555 It was never not anime...I honestly don't understand whenever people say they say a certain style is less "anime" than some other style. What is "anime" style? In fact, I think the older games look a lot more "anime", the chibi-ish looking people have pokemon-esque eyes and overall is more cartoonish (Doraemon?). Ah, I'm not bashing you or anything, if you don't like the style I don't care, but the whole anime label is confusing. Is having colorful hair all it takes? :S

  • @HikariBun Well I guess your right, the colorful hair is what made me say "anime". :D I guess what i'm really trying to say is that I like the way the game looked back in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life. (its the only other Harvest Moon I ever owned). Instead of anime I could call it "cartoonish". Of course, they all are cartoonish but something about this game makes A Wonderful Life's graphics and they way it looks a lot better.

    Thats just my opinion. This game's look is fine though.

  • @TheRedfire555 Alright, thanks for clearing up what you meant.

    Actually this is my first actual Harvest Moon game (although I have all of the Rune Factory games). :> Since I have no nostalgic ties to the previous games, I guess I don't really have any feelings or preference for the simpler style of the older games. :P
