I am a big fan of the harvest Moon series and this one looks like the best so far!
theres new animals like goats and ducks.(i also saw a turtle in this one screenshot)

it looks great!
the game lasts for 30 harvest moon years and theres a option so you can keep playing for ever.
You maybe you can have multiple children(just a rumer)

this is the best game ever!!!

I had played the original Harvest Moon on the SNES and when I saw Havest Moon A Wonderful Life for the GCN I jumped at the chance to play it again.

For those of you out there who think that HMWL is anything like the original let me quickly dispel that notion right away.

Additions and Subtractions: The game has a few things added, and a few things removed when compared to the Original Harvest Moon (SNES)
While some additions are good, I will be focusing on the ones that made the game suck.

Additions:

Cows suck - Cows don't just give you milk like they did in the SNES version. You have to get them pregnant...which takes a YEAR (40 days)
Then they will produce Milk for one year and dry up..so you have to get them pregnant AGAIN.
You also have wash your cow in addition to talking and loving it. So you take them outside, get them next to the water stall and wash them with your brush. This wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to 'push' them from behind to get them to the stall; which is painfully slow and tedious because of the god-awful controls you are given to guide the stupid beast to said destination.

Set up Shop: You go into town and set up a shop and you sit there and WAIT for people to come to you and buy your produce. This can take from 10 to 15 minutes of just sitting there WAITING. And you will only get about 2 or 3 customers who never buy in bulk.

Subtractions: Things removed in the GCN version that were present in the SNES

No Crop drop bin: You have a bin for only Animal products. Milk, eggs, etc.
But not for crops.

No Golden scye: Cutting grass will forever be done as God intended...one square at a time.

All this coupled with many poor menu designs makes this a mediocre game as best.

I can't see how this game would be for children. With it's 480 hours of gameplay (that's just how long it takes for the game to end) any normal child will quickly get bored and move onto something else.
Only if you are a hard core Harvest Moon fan, and a little bit masochistic

Wonderful game! I love it!

This game is so cool! I've been playing it forever. You get to own cows, chickens, a dog, a cat, a horse and ducks! My favorite game ever!

I love this game

It is fun. It is one of the greatest gamecube games that I have ever played. I reccomend it for anyone who either, has alot of time on their hands, or is seriously bored. It's good for people who arn't either of those though too. This is a stupid review.... Oh well.

HARVEST MOON ROCKS!

Amazon delivered item quickly and got it within a week! The animation on this game is pretty good. However, there aren't any games to play during the festivals -- NO Dog race nor horse race nor contests. Dog is useless and only 3 girls to choose for wife. Wife doesn't help around the farm. No greenhouse. seasons are short. Not much to do as a farmer or places to go. Rather BORING. Younger kids may enjoy it better.

THIS GAME LOOKS FREAKING AWESOME!!!

OK, I've played Harvest Moon 64 (for 9 hour periods. . .) and I love it. I've been anticipating this game and here is what I know:

1. you can have goats, pigs, more than 6 chickens
2. As far as you're dog, you can train him to do tricks, and other USEFUL THINGS like herd you're animals
3. Screenshots look like you might be able to have a cat
4. Natsume customer service has informed me that you CAN make hybrid vegetables
5. Unfortunately there's only three girls to marry, but each one has different a kid
6. you can raise you're kid and he's more help than hassle
7. (Rumored) you can have more than one kid
8. you age

This is all I know. It looks like an awesome game, and I'm probably going to order it this second, as should you.
(errm I'm using the child order form because I can't get the other one to work -_-)

Aw, Yeah!

Okay, I've never played any of the Harvest Moon games before, but this game looks sweet! This game spans 40 years,(much less in real life)so you have a lot of time to play it. You can marry one out of three women, Celia, Muffy, or Nami. If you're gonna buy this game, I reccomend marrying Nami. This game has WONDERFUL graphics. I liked Animal Crossing, and this game is kinda like it. If you liked Animal Crossing, you'll probably like this game. By reading stuff, I think I'll give this game a 9 out of 10. BUY IT!

Wonderful!!!

Girls have to get it, boys can play it. A little guy you play runs a farm, growing crops and milking cows, making more cows and picking eggs from the chicken hutch. You can intermingle with the other non-player characters in town and sell things to them, get a wife. All these are part and parcel of the Harvest Moon gameplay, but this one is by far the best in terms of graphic quality and story progression. It runs smoother than the previous versions, and also lets you LINK this town to the next via GameBoy Advance. A really neat feature if I do say so myself! Sheer entertainment for as long as your eyes can keep open, I've been playing it for 4 days straight with breaks for eating and sleeping of course. Showers optional!

Delightful game, pleasant, positively requires no brainwork, is so stress-relieving that this would be a game I'd play after study or work. LOVE IT!!! Also applies to the inner farmer in everyone. Without the labor of course.
