We just realized we haven't updated you on Rune Factory: Shin Bokujou Monogatari (New Harvest Moon). Time to correct that mistake. Rune Factory: Shin Bokujou Monogatari is set to be released in just a few days, August 24 to be exact. But that's the Japanese version. However, if you really want to get your hands on this, you can purchase your copy from online stores which ship worldwide.

We came across two Netshops, Play-Asia ($48.90 plus $2.50 shipping) and Lik-Sang ($54.90 free shipping). Both stores will start selling as soon as their stocks arrive. According to Play-Asia, their copies have no region protection.

On the other hand, if your Japanese is a crusty-and-rusty as ours we suggest a little more patience and wait for the North American version. Make that a lot more patience since Nintendo has not announced a solid release date for it. Meanwhile, here's the opening movie that ought to keep you satisfied for the next couple of hours...

You know, I was actually somwhat interested in Rune Factory, since it was the first departure from the natural "Harvest Moon" formula, and any time something changes, I have hope for better things.



But after seeing that intro movie, I kind of lost interest. A lot of interest.



Personally, I'm not really interested in "cheesy love scenes" but the intro movie seems almost like it was made for girls. I don't see how any guy can watch that, sympathize (and ultimately idealize) with it, and retain any masculinity. I just can't, it's too ghey.





And MY GOD qj you have GOT to STOP those ads-with-sound-in-them. That chicken is GODDAMM annoying.

I hate that paparazzi one.



Just an info: EVERY DS game is region free. There never was any region coding with any Nintendo portable.

Actually, the first "departure" from the traditional Harvest Moon games is Innocent Life for the PSP, which came out before this.

Yeah, you're right.



Don't have a PSP, so I guess I missed that one.





Still, though, this does appear to be of greater difference in comparison to the Harvest Moon games, and moreso still that it is a reinvention for Harvest Moon's 10th anniversary. Innocent Life didn't seem "that" different, but I could be wrong.
