The Ushi No Tane websites specialize in information, FAQs, and guides about the Nintendo console versions of the Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, and Legend of the River King video games. These game genres are created and published in Japan by Marvelous (JP). In other regions, you'll find Natsume, XSeed Games/Marvelous (USA), Marvelous (EU), and Rising Star involved in the series' release.
The latest version of the mainstream farming series that have been released in various regions of the world are:
The latest version of River King, in all regions of the world, is River King: Mystic Valley (JP 2007, NA 2008, EU 2009).
Since 2000, Ushi no Tane has been run by a grouchy old lady who happens to be fond of video game agriculture along with two feline helpers: Intern Captain Bootu and Intern Hondo Mewnaka. The website is not officially affiliated, sponsored, endorsed, or employed by the developers of Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, or River King. This is simply a fan site.
Last week, XSeed announced that the official release date for Story of Seasons in North America will be March 31, 2015. Remember to pre-order your copy of the game to get the special pre-order bonus Angora bunny plushie!
(No, the game's release date has not been pushed back. The other dates were placeholder date and not official. NOW it is official!)
Marvelous is also ramping up the promotion of their crossover game, Popolocrois Bokujou Monogatari, which is a rendition of the cult-classic Popolocrois game mixed in with farming aspects. The Nintendo 3DS game is set to be released in Japan on June 18, 2015. Unfortunately, I can't say I know anything about Popolocrois, yet I have read a lot of good things about it from others who are fans of the series. It'll be interesting to see if Marvelous gives this little gem to its English localization team for North American release.
Happy Friday!
