Funnily enough, I recently found a cartridge for this game in our storage room. I’m pretty sure it’s a famicom bootleg cart and I’m almost certain we never actually played it (because we had an NES, not a famicom!), but it works perfectly fine despite collecting dust for 30 years.
@Uncle_Franklin then again, how is this more “like NFTs” than all previous Pokemon TCG apps they’ve had in the past…? (Or any other trading card game, for that matter) The basic functionality seems to be nearly identical, except with shorter battles.
I can’t wait for this one. I should probably preorder it now that I think about it.
The little almanac with character bios and preferences is a genius idea. Makes it a worthy companion for Friends of Mineral Town (and apparently there’s also characters and music from the other games? That’s nice!)
Ah, this coincides with the new updates on mobile (they added the boost options and controller compatibility there). Cool, it’s like a little crossover event between switch and mobile.
@Barbiegurl777 I assure you this and the regular versions of the game will only share the farming theme and John Deere license.
I would expect this one to be more like a soundboard with basic early learning activities and cute animations, whereas the regular games are actual farming simulations where you use heavy farming machinery.
I suppose neither would be the kind of story-driven experience you want.
@Barbiegurl777 yes the 3DS had three farming simulator games, but they where the regular mobile phone versions, not any sort of special "for kids" edition.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Pokémon Yellow Version
I’ve never liked the slightly cross-eyed pose they used in the Japanese one. The American pose looks much nicer.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS)
I like the yellow and orange tones in the American one

This emulator is also on the regular AppStore now
Re: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Introduces Yoshi Ahead Of Next Month's Launch
The lack of music is a bit odd
Re: Sunsoft Announces 'Retro Game Selection' For Switch, English Release Planned
Remember when NES game collections came with at least 10 games? Good times.
Re: 3DS And Wii U Users Say Goodbye To Online Play
@Tasuki if you say that due to the discontinuation of the online service, I don’t think that’s related to accounts and content
Re: Nintendo Fans Say Goodbye To 3DS And Wii U Online Play
@BandeeOfTheStars yeah I could still trade Pokemon after the cut out, it didn’t stop working until I had to suspend the game.
Re: Nintendo Fans Say Goodbye To 3DS And Wii U Online Play
I did wonder trades until the very end, in Omega Ruby.
The final Pokemon I received was a cute little Muchlax.
Re: Sonic Superstars Exclusive Amy Rose Outfit Available In New Collaboration
Looks more like a Disney collab
Re: Review: Felix The Cat (Switch) - A Cute But Costly Clowder
Funnily enough, I recently found a cartridge for this game in our storage room. I’m pretty sure it’s a famicom bootleg cart and I’m almost certain we never actually played it (because we had an NES, not a famicom!), but it works perfectly fine despite collecting dust for 30 years.
The game is genuinely fun, in my opinion.
Re: Stardew Valley Creator Teases Fruit Tree Change Coming In Version 1.6
Oh cool, so planting them on the wrong tile is no longer a “start the day over” situation.
Re: Warner Bros. Doubles Down On Its Commitment To Live Service Games
Seems like a funny way to say “buy Hogwarts Legacy now or we’ll make the next one a live service game!”
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Ninja Gaiden Shadow
He’s not a Ninja, he’s a Hero.
Different job classes.
The Japanese one looks like a still from an anime or something. Voted American since it seems a bit truer to the game.
Re: Random: Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket Fixes Longtime Card Back Error
@somebread yeah very much this. I didn’t know it was supposed to be opening 😅
Re: New Card Collecting App 'Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket' Launches This Year
@Uncle_Franklin then again, how is this more “like NFTs” than all previous Pokemon TCG apps they’ve had in the past…? (Or any other trading card game, for that matter) The basic functionality seems to be nearly identical, except with shorter battles.
Re: Brawlhalla Star Wars Event Adds Anakin And Obi-Wan Next Month
I thought it was Severus Snape with a light saber for a second there
Re: The Denpa Men Return In New Free-To-Play Switch Game
Aw. Japan only.
Hopefully they’ll just randomly release it on other regions.
Re: It Looks Like Gold And Silver Will Feature In The Next 'Pokémon Presents'
I’d love a sequel to the let’s go story
Re: Feature: "It Just Felt Right" - How Story Of Seasons & Piczle Cross Is The Perfect Union
I can’t wait for this one. I should probably preorder it now that I think about it.
The little almanac with character bios and preferences is a genius idea. Makes it a worthy companion for Friends of Mineral Town (and apparently there’s also characters and music from the other games? That’s nice!)
Re: Back Page: The Best Cows On The Nintendo Switch
@shonenjump86 oooh the genesis app! I totally forgot it existed to be honest. Thanks I’ll check it out there.
Re: Back Page: The Best Cows On The Nintendo Switch
@shonenjump86 is Earthworm Jim actually on the switch? Honest question, I’d like to play it.
Re: Back Page: The Best Cows On The Nintendo Switch
I love cows, they’re my favorite animal.
I’m not sure how I feel about including One World’s design as a means to diss the game though. Cows are about positivity and love.
Anyway, yes the Bubble Cow is the best cow design ever.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Jack Bros. (Virtual Boy)
The American one covers the face of the main character.
It loses my vote just for that alone.
Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Series For Switch On Sale, 20% Off Every Title & Bundle
@Emacster which one did ya get?
Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Series For Switch On Sale, 20% Off Every Title & Bundle
@Woodyshoe III is a good one to begin with. IV and VI and likely regarded as the best ones in the bunch though.
Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Series For Switch On Sale, 20% Off Every Title & Bundle
Ah, this coincides with the new updates on mobile (they added the boost options and controller compatibility there). Cool, it’s like a little crossover event between switch and mobile.
Re: 'Anomaly Agent' Is A Stylish Cyberpunk Action-Platformer, And It's Out Now
@Ogbert I assume it’s imitating that as a way to lean in on the “anomaly” part of the name.
Re: Limited Edition Shovel Knight Switch Joy-Con Revealed, Pre-Orders Now Live
What if they released Plague Knight’s campaign as a stand alone game to celebrate
Re: Stardew Valley Creator Provides Another Update About Version 1.6
It’s kinda funny how it started with “idk, maybe just a few minor additions, making modding simpler, etc. Don’t expect too much. ”
Re: Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Officially Reveal New Mythical Pokémon
After such a long time without Poison type legendaries or mythicals, the recent games have been showing the Poison type a lot of love.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Mario Golf: Advance Tour
Japan forgot the Mario. Too bad.
Re: 'Piczle Cross: Story Of Seasons' Plants More Nonogram Puzzles On Switch Next Year
I did not expect this to be the new game the dev had been teasing! It’s so cool
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Harvest Moon 64
The American one is just a classic

Well today is a good day
Re: Talking Point: What Are The Worst Parts Of Your Favourite Games?
Any segment in modern Resident Evils when the game removes my infinite rocket launcher.
How am I supposed to beat the hardest difficulties when the game expects me to actually be skilled at it.
Re: Hands On: Atari 50 Gets Even Better With Adventure II, Warbirds, And More
Ah cool, maze craze is a fun little quick game

Re: Cult Of The Lamb Announces Sins Of The Flesh, Its "Next Free Major Content Update"
I’m far more disturbed by the pig’s snout than the nakedness
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Contact
Not gonna lie, I love the little sprite sheet style of the European box.
That would’ve made me consider the game a lot more than the profile of a random kid.
Re: Random: Nintendo Is A "Wonderful" Place To Work If You're A Genius, According To Former Employee

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Wins Nintendo GOTY At Golden Joystick Awards 2023
@B_Lindz oh. Oof. That’s kinda odd.
Re: Super Mario RPG Switch Leaked Online Ahead Of Next Week's Release
I've heard that the final boss is named Smithy and that Peach is playable.
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Wins Nintendo GOTY At Golden Joystick Awards 2023
Why is RE4 the PS Game of the Year when it's a multi-platform game?
Re: Farming Simulator Kids Is Bringing Cute, Accessible Farming Fun To Switch
@Barbiegurl777 I assure you this and the regular versions of the game will only share the farming theme and John Deere license.
I would expect this one to be more like a soundboard with basic early learning activities and cute animations, whereas the regular games are actual farming simulations where you use heavy farming machinery.
I suppose neither would be the kind of story-driven experience you want.
Re: Farming Simulator Kids Is Bringing Cute, Accessible Farming Fun To Switch
@Tisteg80 This is meant for toddlers and other young children, its not really meant to be a new direction for their Switch versions.
Re: Farming Simulator Kids Is Bringing Cute, Accessible Farming Fun To Switch
@Barbiegurl777 yes the 3DS had three farming simulator games, but they where the regular mobile phone versions, not any sort of special "for kids" edition.
Re: Farming Simulator Kids Is Bringing Cute, Accessible Farming Fun To Switch
ah that's a cute idea, took them long enough to figure out they could sell a version for kids
Re: Anniversary: Happy Birthday To Nintendo's Ugliest, Most Indestructible Console

I actually keep one new in the box for the time when my current 2DS begins to fail.
