Harvest Moon series will soon be making an appearance on Nintendo's WiiWare service. The game will be titled Harvest Moon Series: My Little Shop and will focus primarily on shop management.
Harvest Moon: My Little Shop features:
- play as boy or girl
- create your own shop
- create different types of shops
- design interior/exterior
- Ice Cream Parlor: turn milk into soft cream
- unlock stickers and paint through other portions of the game
- juice and ice cream are created through mini-games
You'll still be able to play as either a boy or a girl and you'll have the opportunity to create your own shop from various types of stores including: Juice Shops, Ice Cream Parlors, and even Easter Egg shops. You'll be able to customize the interior and exterior of your store and even snap photos of it to share with other Wii owners via the online function of the Wii.
You'll operate your store by creating items using various mini games. So if a customer comes into your juice shop and places a specific order, you'll then play a mini-game that will allow you the chance to create the specified item for your customer. If you're successful, you'll please your customers and they'll likely return to your shop in the future. Your store will even be frequented by past Harvest Moon characters.

As long as the control is solid, this should be good.

I love Harvest Moon, but I'm going to have to pass on this. I want a good farming challenge, not running a shop.
Pass.

Its a mini-game compilation with a Harvest Moon theme. Not a Harvest Moon game that cuts out all the farming. There's a difference. The HM name should do good for sales.

this looks very similar to dozens of Korean cell phone games. There are many "tycoon" games available on cell phones that are basically this style. Mini games centered around running a store. You need to plant crop, or order things and do challenges to ensure all your stock is there and can sell for the customer. At around $2.50 as a cell phone game it seems okay, but I wouldn't pay 1200 points for it unless there is a lot more here.

Its pretty good... but i would not reccomend it to anyone... Firstly, it is Real-time, so you have to wait 3 days in REAL life to get your crop, at first thought you think: "Oh, that sounds neat!" but after you play it for a week you stop getting reservations, Cut-scenes, and all the stuff that makes the game fun. the only thing that keeps it going is the add-ons. the add-ons are small packages that include in-game features like unlocks a strawberry cow, new characters, and decorations for your shop. but be warned these packages are a whopping 400 wii points, it might not seem like much but it is not worth it for what you get.
Secondly, there is nothing to keep you playing, even if you leave the game for two months (Like i did
)your crops don't die and your animals don't Die/run away!!! so if I had to rate it, it would be a 4 out of 10.
