I know that sites like IGN say January 2008, and I know this forum keeps telling us its summer 2008..but who is right? I have some info

Great and reliable sites such as wikipedia are saying that the game is released in January, and why would they make it January? the dont sell, so its not like its going to be pre-orded or anything...

Sorry if this is against the rules, but could somebody please give me a link to the site that says its released in Summer 2008?

meh, I'm probobly wrong, but I really hope its january

Natsume has stated Quarter 2 (april, may, june) of 2008. The publisher's date is the one I go by, not what ever is listed as place-holder dates. You can go to Natsume's page and read their E3 flyer if you want proof.

The game will not be out in January.

Wikipedia? Reliable? In the same sentence? What is this madness? You know that Wikipedia is 100% fan edited right? Someone with an account there could write in that IoH is coming out tomorrow if they wanted to. And plenty of people both preorder and buy Harvest Moon games.

Well, I've found Wikipedia reliable in the past.

But yeah, you are all right then if Natsume itself says it, I never say anything on there main page. I'll have to look some more

I pre-ordered this and GameStop says it comes out Feb. 19.

Gamestop usually gets its info direct from the Publishers, so that release date might be plausible, but sometimes they're slow on updates.

It's best to just go with Natsume's release date as the others mentioned.

im sure that the '19 feb 2008' one is Cute, not island
since ive read about release date for cute in gamefaqs and it's 19 feb
beside, im pretty sure that Natsume itself has stated that theyll release cute first then Island

yeah, best go with natsume date. Hope they don't delay it like they did with Harvest Moon DS.

We have no idea who is right but i heard that IOH and TOP release on feb 19/08 as i found out that HMDS Cute is now feb 20/08.

at this point in time, i just hope that it comes out soon.

As Cher said... The developer's are going to know when their own games come out. I think the people working on the games know better than people who aren't related to it in the least, aside from selling the final product.

That said, Natsume is notorious for delays... so even their scheduled release date will probably be pushed back.

Well, I looked at Natsume's page and here is what i found:

http://www.natsume.com/comingsoon_frameset.html

That you can find the pages on.

Cute directly says: "Coming 1st Quarter 2008"
and they don't have island on there.

wow. that futuristic harvest moon looks cool.

Ronin19 · Post Posted: Dec 24, 2007 7:28 am

yeah, february IS in quarter 1 2008, if you forgot, so, natsume is alright.

edit: i just realised that they changed steiner's name to skye, oh well, at least it's easier to say.
