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.

Little Dragons Cafe LE and May '18 4-col Comic | Posted at 02:31 PM 11 May 2018
Happy Farm'n Friday! The dahlia bed was successfully planted last weekend. There were a few tubers that didn't survive the over-winter storage, but the remaining tubers survived just fine. About 30 of them were planted with a few left over that I need to find a good spot for them. I'm having some terrible luck with the front yard crops though, as the carrots still haven't sprouted (I gave up and planted herbs in their place), the spinach is super tiny, and the tree rats ate my broccoli florets. The soil is probably not well suited for crops yet. Looks like I have more work to do before I plant the pickling cucumbers!

Little Dragons Cafe Limited Edition Bundle

Pre-orders for the limited edition package of Little Dragons Cafe, Yaushiro Wada's latest game development, are now available at Amazon and Gamestop in the US, and at VideoGamesPlus in Canada. The LE bundle of the game costs $80 (plus applicable tax). Wowza! In exchange for the higher price, those who purchase the bundle will receive: Aksys Games is the publisher for the North American version, so it isn't known yet if Rising Star Games will have the same LE for the European players. The game is scheduled to be released at the end of August. You can learn more about the game at the official website for Little Dragons Cafe.

May NintenDori 4-col Comic

And here's the 4-col Comic from Nintendo Dream Magazine, ending the tuna wars between Bluebell and Konohana! This is the last of the 4-col comics illustrated by Igusa Matsuyama that will be published in the magazine. With Hashimoto's column ending the other month, and Matsuyama's art comic ending this month, the Marvelous Fan page in the magazine has switched to featuring Mori-san, a public relations contact at Marvelous. Mori will be answering reader submitted questions in the monthly column. Until next time! - Cher (Happy mother's day to Anna, Felicia, Lillia, Margot, Mirandas, Nellie, Naomi, Shizu, Vernoica, and all the other farming moms!)
