How's the harvest moon now? Is the story somehow relates to the GBA harvest moon? :P

I heard that it's set 100 years after AWL, but it's got the same girls to marry. (I blame cloning XD )

Thank God i am gettinga job so i can buy a Ds just for Hm: Ds

If you've played AWL and FOMT, then I guess you should wait for the PSP Innocent Life version to come out, because DS looks like a bit of a merge between the two games. But as a keen HM fan, any HM game would satisfy me ^^

So how would this game fair for people who have never played a HM game before? Is it easy to pick up and get into?

It's pretty easy. Off the field, you can talk to people, go up the mountains to collect mountain food, buy things (using money that you ship in boxes) and on the field, you just use the hoe to dig up the dirt, plant seeds, and water them. To woo girls you just give them presents that they like. And I better warn you about how easy it is to get addicted to it :D

I got most of this from an information site, but here are the girls that you can marry.From the normal ones, there's Celia, a quiet, farming type girl (the one I'm going for :D ); Flora, an archaeologist; Lumina, lady-like, music loving girl; Muffy, the bar-girl (like Karen, except she wears a dress); Nami, like Karen in the N64 series. The special girls, like the harvest goddess in FOMT, are the harvest goddess, Leia (a mermaid), a witch and Keria (this girl who lives on the 255th level of one of the mines). You can also woo the girls from FOMT, but to do this, you'll have to connect FOMT to your DS game.

Yeah, Celia seems to be the best choice out of all of them. Lumine being the next. =p Celia seems to like things you dig from the archeological site. Necklaces, Bracelets, earrings.. hahah Cheap courtship ftw.Anywho, not sure if this was mentioned, but be sure to enter the archeological site (the cave) @ around 8pm-9pm any day with the hammer equipped. Doing this would grant you access to the mine site where you can find ores to upgrade your tools.Just a friendly reminder since it took me a while before i found this out, and who knows? it might not just be me who stumbles upon this problem.Edit: just to add to the post above, you can also court all the girls from FOMT by inserting your FOMT gamepack into your DS when playing HM:DS. Be careful though, if you marry the FOMT girls, your game automatically ends and you move back to Mineral Town.

This is supposedly the same version as the "fixed" Japanese version. Though there are bugs that still exist. Natsume's games are typically buggy... If you want more information on the bugs though, there is a thread on Harvest Moon DS bugs.

So to get the girls from FOMT, after i have the FOMT catridge, do i have to have it in the game slot whenever im playing the DS version, because my friend has it, and im just wondering if i can just borrow his for like 5 minutes, or do i have to have both catridges in my DS?

If you want to woo a girl from Mineral Town you need to connect your copy of either GBA game to your DS. Once a week you will get to see one of the Mineral Town girls visit your game. Since they only appear on a weekly basis they take the longest time to court. Unfortunatly when you finally are able to marry one of the Mineral Town girls your game will end. After the credits finish rolling you will be able to reload your game from your last save spot and you will be unmarried again.

I think the only way the game will end is if you actually marry one of the girls from Mineral Town. Otherwise, the game will likely go on for as long as you're willing to play the game.

Say if i use the actual DS cart and GBA rom, will that work as well?

Meaning that you have the actual DS game in your DS, with a flash cart with FOMT on it in the GBA slot? If that's the case, then yes. It should work that way too.

As far as I know, DS emulators don't have a "gba slot." So in the case of emulating Havest Moon DS, I don't think you can do things that require you to have entered the GBA game into the DS.

I have to wait until tomorrow to get this game, simply because my local Game Crazy doesn't have it (All the gaming stores that has this game are on the northside of town but Game Crazy is the only place I can go to without having to drive since it's like a 10-15 min bike ride there). The only ones they have are the preordered copies but one of the guys said that if the person that preordered it doesn't pick it up today or tomorrow (Hopefully no one picked it up yet) then he'll just sell it to me since they are supposed to only hold it for about a week after it's release and if the person doesn't come pick it up, they will have to sell it.
