Accessories in dress-up

Town customization will return

The ability to care for animals in the safari as well as on the farm

Farming has been streamlined. Quicker forms of tilling land, harvesting, and watering

Multiplayer options: friends can come and farm, and you can give presents to friends

The ability to farm Super Mario bros. items like growth mushrooms or fireflowers

--Storyline--
(Translated by Marie)

One winter day...
The protagonist, whose life has been the same day after day,
finds an advertisement in the mailbox.

"We're currently recruiting a new ranch owner!
Wouldn't you like to work with us?"

One week later...
The message saying the protagonist passed the ranch exam arrived.

The protagonist quickly packed their things, and
headed off to “Oak Tree Town,” thrilled about the excitement-filled
ranch life!

Full of life and with a love for children, she is the TV weather girl.
Outside of the weather forecast, she also works as a singer for
children’s programs and as an announcer, so she’s very busy.
On her days off, she looks after her younger sister,
chats with the elderly, and even in private works to help others,
so she’s popular in town.

(Her dialogue in the screenshot)
"This is a very wonderful town, so I’d love it if more people come to know
about this town’s merits."

She’s very quick to think, so everyone sees her as having a cool personality.
She does everything according to a plan, so she doesn’t fare well when unexpected things come up.
She seems mature beyond her years, and doesn’t often let her emotions show.

(Her dialogue in the screenshot)
"...Did you skin your elbows? They are bleeding. Please hold still."

The first news on this game by Harvest!

New Harvest Moon: Connect to The New Land Announced For Nintendo 3DS
Next Year of coming soon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)

News:

(IMG:http://I.imgur.com/5iwJNk9.jpg)

While Harvest Moon: A New Beginning came out last year in Japan and North America (with a more recent release in Europe,) Marvelous AQL are already working on the next title, called Harvest Moon: Connect to the New Land for Nintendo 3DS.

This week’s issue of Famitsu magazine shares the latest details. Similar to Harvest Moon: A New Beginning, you’ll have the option to pick between a male or female protagonist in Harvest Moon: Connect to the New Land. The farming will also be made to be a little more simple in the upcoming installment; however, the overall flow of the game will be similar to previous Harvest Moon titles.

As you progress through the story, you’ll be able to visit a safari, where you’ll get to encounter and take care of wild animals. In addition to having an increase of wild animals over time, the magazine reports that there will be about twice the variety of animals compared to past titles.

There will also be a new “Trade Station” feature, where crops and dairy products can be traded to other countries. Over time, the amount of countries which you’ll be trading items with will increase, and you’ll also get to visit them on vacations or to deliver items they might need.

Additionally, this time, there will be other ranchers who’ll serve as tutorial purpose characters, each with their own personalities to guide you through different aspects of the game. Harvest Moon: Connect to the New Land will also bring back fishing, and there will also be other features that involve playing in rivers.

Something interesting to note is that, the meaning of “Connect” in the title implies communication features, but it shares another meaning of “connecting to the game’s world”. A Streetpass feature will also be available for you to share personal data with other players.


Harvest Moon: Connect to the New Land is slated for release on February 2014 for Nintendo 3DS.

Brain hasn't been working well today, but I tackled a very, very rough translation for Iris's info.

I'm not satisfied with it because there was one kanji character I couldn't quite recognise, and her dialogue samples seem a bit more wordy than the others. She is an author, so her way of talking might be a bit more complicated. I put a question mark in the area where I was uncertain of the kanji.

Still, I hope you can get a feel for her personality from this!

Iris

“The clear autumn sky is very pretty. This way I can really get worked up [lit: I can receive various forms of excitement], so in this season my writing progresses.”

She’s Mistel’s older sister, and works as a novelist.
She has an abundance of knowledge and experience, doesn’t let small things bother her, and has a refreshing personality.
She’s sisterly and good at looking out for others, and when it comes to gathering herself together, is kind[?].
Even if she spends all day at her desk writing a novel, she’ll relax and go for a walk around town, so she’s fairly laid back.

(Dialogue in screenshot)
“This town isn’t very well known, so whenever the editor in charge of my work changes, I have to give an explanation of the location, and that’s difficult.”

I was going to try do start on the guys today, but I'm so tired out after translating this one, I think I'm going to relax with some tea, miniature pies and play ANB! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)
