I was looking around youtube when I stumbled into this:


I've been away from the boards a bit, but has anyone seen that before? Is that some sort of dream sequence or a glitch? I can't read Japanese at all, but it looks like the normal text for talking with an animal. There's another with a sheep:



Now I understand why the crops are so big. They have to engineer something to feed these monstrosities.

EDIT: They're part of the WiFi interaction! Cher even made a post about it, whoops:

Springtime! | Posted at 14:35 on 08 Apr 2012

It's spring! Time for all farmers to start preparing their vegetable garden. Looks like we're going to try growing Snap Peas and Zucchini again this year.

Land of Beginning has almost reached 150,000 copies sold since its February 23rd release in Japan. It's now sold more than AWL, Animal March, Harvest Moon DS, and countless other versions of the series. It hasn't outsold Sunshine Islands or Island of Happiness though. With as popular as the game is, perhaps we'll hear about English release information around June, when this year's E3 will occur. The game is huge text-wise, so I wouldn't expect a North American release date this year.

Normally the giant animals that appear when using the Nintendo Network wifi system are cows, alpaca, and sheep, but it was such a strange occurence to see a chick that I had to take a picture of it

I remember that you have to connect to the net to access that place. It's useful if you crafting some items. :)

Yes, if you guys don't remember, and I don't know how you can't when it's something so cool. This happens in Wi-Fi when you interact with other players and their animals and 1 will become a giant if you're lucky enough And they will produce like 5 milk, I think top quality, not sure, or whatever animal is big.

That's great!
So your animal just becomes giant when you interact with others? That sounds weird, but as it produces more milk it's amazing!

Keep in mind though, animals are only giant in the Wi-Fi thing.

Ahhh so that's what this is. Sorry to bring up something we already know about then, I did try to search the forums and must have missed it. I didn't even think to check the newspage.

Man what a weird and neat idea, hhahaha! Imagine how surprised you'd be if you weren't expecting it! It's too bad I don't often do wifi stuff with HM games. I may have to go out of my way at least once to see this though :)
