NATSUME BRIGHTENS STORE SHELVES WITH HARVEST MOON: SUNSHINE ISLANDS
Game Ships to Retail!
Burlingame, Calif., November 10, 2009 – Natsume Inc., a worldwide
developer and publisher of family-oriented video games, announced
today that Harvest Moon: Sunshine Islands for the Nintendo DS has
shipped to retail! It is available at an MSRP of $29.99, and is rated
E for Everyone by the ESRB.
In Harvest Moon: Sunshine Islands, players rejoin all of the beloved
characters from Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness, and meet some new
faces as well! Years ago, a powerful earthquake struck the Sunshine
Islands chain, and most of the islands sank forever…or did they?
It’s up to the player to find the magical Sun Stones and raise the
sunken islands. As they do, they’ll meet new characters, harvest new
crops, and befriend animals such as ducks, monkeys, and badgers.
Players will grow their farm, care for animals, mine, fish, and
compete in festivals in their quest to restore the Sunshine Islands to
their former glory. With a little luck, they may even find true love
and start a family along the way.
“Harvest Moon: Sunshine Islands is here just in time for the holidays!
You get to meet some great new characters, train your pets in fun
minigames, and grow a huge variety of crops. It’s a fantastic Harvest
Moon experience!” said Hiro Maekawa, President and CEO at Natsume.
“This is a great game for players of all ages, whether they’re loyal
fans or brand new Harvest Moon players!”
