Harvest Moon Now Available on the Virtual Console

The classic game “Harvest Moon” is now available on the Wii Shop Channel.

Wikipedia gives an example of the typical gameplay for Harvest Moon…

Most gameplay in the Harvest Moon games consists of planting seeds to grow fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs in the spring, summer, and autumn, and collecting items, making home improvements, and building personal relationships in the winter. A successful farmer must weigh the cost, selling price, number of harvests, and growth times of the various types of produce in order to pick the best product for each of the seasons. One can also go fishing.

The player must also balance their physical resources; if players over-exert themselves, they might not have the energy to perform needed activities, or might even get sick and miss a day of farming.

You can pick up the SNES game for 800 Wii points and is rated E for everyone.
