Closing Comments
Harvest Moon has been a solid adventure in the portable world for over a decade, starting first on the original Game Boy, and progressing to the GBC and GBA. Even still, each generation added something new to the mix, starting with simple color display, and ending with a full immersive town and nearly endless replay value. On DS, however, it seems like the development team simply added basic bottom screen item management and a few animal interactions and called it a day. The main bulk of the game is still single screen, uses a ton of the same assets from the Friends of Mineral Town world, and though the game is supposed to be set up in a different town, a ton of the characters “mysteriously” make cameos. Even still, Harvest Moon DS is as solid of a farm simulator as it ever was, and just because it doesn’t add a ton of touch or visual flare to the mix doesn’t mean it’s a total wash. Diehard fans may still wan to pick this one up to pass the time, and there is still a nearly endless amount of play time. If only it had a new look and more immersive controls. Instead, franchise veterans will feel like they just dropped their hard-earned cash for a game that, at its roots, feels nearly identical to a GBA game that released three years ago on GBA. In fact, if you can still track it down, Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town remains to be one of the hottest GBA titles out there, and definitely a steal at around $15 bucks. If Harvest Moon is absolutely essential on your DS, give this one a try at your own risk. As for us, we’ll be heading back to Mineral Town, saving our gold pieces for the real DS successor to Harvest Moon; Natume’s own Rune Factory.
4.5 Presentation
The overall farm management still works fine, but the interface is far too weak for the potential of DS. A few touch interactions aside, it’s still a GBA game.
5.5 Graphics
It may be playable on DS, but this Harvest Moon uses the same assets, animations, and storyboard art as Friends of Mineral Town, with only slight improvements in key areas.
5.5 Sound
The musical score has received a bit of a boost from the GBA, though the sound effects and lack of VO screams “last gen”.
6.5 Gameplay
The gameplay may be strikingly similar to the GBA versions, but it still stands the test of time. Graphics aren’t everything, but for Harvest Moon DS it’s all about gameplay
6.0 Lasting Appeal
There’s a ton to do, but if you’ve played any of the previous games, you’ve done it all before. The new harvest sprite casino and events help, but on a very minor level.

Würde mal sagen für Harvest Moon-Fans lohnt es sich immer noch.

wahrscheinlich dauert es deshalb so lange, die streiten sich noch 
und ein andersfarbiges Mädchenherz ist auch noch nicht in Sicht. Ich werds wohl mal mit Muffy versuchen.
