Turns out those of you with a green thumb and constant itch to tend land will have to wait just a bit longer as the DS installment in the popular farming franchise Harvest Moon has been pushed back from a release of late in August to 12 September 2006. Pretty big deal, no?During the interim, why don't you watch the trailer a couple more times and think happy thoughts of bathing sheep and planting crops. Also, should we expect Natsume to give Harvest Moon DS the big push again, maybe even further into the future than a few weeks?

This is good news. Instead of being released in the lull of Summer and in contention for Madden, it is released in the lively month of September. This probably means that Natsume believes the game will do very well!

I remember when the game was supposed to come out in early June, the 12th or 13th I believe. I was all ready to get it then, but I think i'm just gonna buy it used down the road eventually now.

Right, release it the same day as most of Square-Enix's DS lineup, including FFIII, and the same day as Contact. ~_~

What does it take for ds fanboy to accept your tip.
I sent this same news a week ago to the ds fanboy staff members and no one posted anything. I sent it to them on Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Check out my website to see the truth:

Yea. It was first planned to be released in June and pushed back to August. This delay is not that big a deal, considering that some of us waited more than a year for it to be localised.
The people at natsume are really taking their time to translate a title. You would have thought they remade the entire thing...

Romath,
Please understand that we carefully look over all tips, but yours merely linked to an EBgames.com listing for the game, a source that, to most, is not considered very reliable.
We try and maintain the strictest standards when blogging about any subject. We check sources, validate facts, and drink lots of caffeinated beverages before bringing a story to the site because our readers demand nothing less than that from us. I apologize if you felt wronged in some way, but the staff did not feel that the information presented was enough to be reported on.
Keep sending in tips, I guarantee you we get them. :)
Thanks for reading!
Dave
