If you're the superstitious type, you might be cowering at the fact that today is both Friday the 13th and the rising of a full moon; a doubly "unlucky" coincidence. If you're a Harvest Moon or Lufia fan, however, today's news from Natsume brings much more benevolent tidings.
Natsume has posted a roundup of their 3DS digital titles on Twitter, including two Game Boy Color reveals from E3: Harvest Moon 2 and Lufia: The Legend Returns.

Both titles are currently listed as "Coming Soon." The other titles listed are all currently available, with Yumi's Odd Odyssey currently on discount in North America until 15th June.
Are you thinking of picking up either retro title, or is your interest in them waning? Let us know in the comments.

I could be down for some Lufia. More VC the better for both 3DS and WiiU!
Yay, Harvest Moon 2 is a notable improvement over 1.
LUFIA....FINALLY!
How about the first two lufias for snes?
More VC titles. That's never a bad thing.
Oh neat, The good portable Lufia.
Is the GBC Lufia comparable to the SNES games in terms of quality? Cause it might take a while until we see the first two on VC, I guess...
^It's different. Good for what it is, but I'm not sure it's fair to compare it to, say, Lufia 2. Granted, Lufias 1 was pretty bland, so I guess you could say it was better than that at least...
Nice to see that the VC is finally getting major momentum from a few different companies Capcom, DONT dissappoint me !
GBC lufia, in terms of equipment balance / battle math, is completely on par with Lufia 2 for SNES - and quite a bit stronger than Fortress of Doom.
It's quite a bit harder too - bosses are quite a challenge if you aren't force leveling. Dungeon design, however, isn't as strong (everything is Ancient-Cave style randomized) - but it still remains one of the finest games on the GBC - up there with Dragon Warrior 3 GBC. It's great!
@komodo182 Yes! That would be great.
This is nice. Hoping to see plenty more support from Natsume.
Didn't natsume have a "treat" in store for wii u owners??? Was on NL right before E3. I would LOVE to see Pocky&Rocky 1&2 on wii u vc!!! That would be sick!!
probably just Lufia for me
The Lufia game was awful...
"...or is your interest in them waning?"
::slow clap::
Stop the presses!
Y no GBA?
Finally a Lufia title on the VC, it's about time! I remember playing this religiously when it first came out.. I mean it's no Lufia 2, but it's just as good
Not the Lufia I want, but some Lufia is better than none.
A Lufia title! ...NICE!
Hate to be the one to say this....but if you are hoping for the GBA Lufia to be released on Wii U - it might not hurt for us to support this one on 3DS.
This is still a decent title, worth checking out.
These were announced months ago weren't they?. I'll be waiting for Harvest Moon 3; I already have 2 in cartridge form.
Why would we want Lufia from gameboy colour while there is a Snes release with much much better graphics and sound! We're getting downgraded version. I guess it's good news for the fans,
Hopefully about a Lufia and the Fortress of Doom and a Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals on Wii U's Virtual Console.
natsume wheres the pocky & rocky series for snes?
@Action51 ...Why would you want the GBA title?
@Alucard83 Because they're two different games...that's like saying "Why would you want Link's Awakening when you could have A Link to the Past?"
Maybe Lufia but I'm skipping Harvest Moon until they make a real online co-op version. I might be waiting quite a while for that harvest moon. Looks like its Fantasy Life and Monster Hunter for me in 2015. Really looking forward to those. I may get an Eshop title that sneaks up on us like Gunman Clive.
