We found out earlier this week that Harvest Moon would be arriving on the European 3DS eShop on Thursday. The wait in North America will be a bit longer.

Natsume has confirmed on its Twitter account that Harvest Moon will be hitting the North American 3DS VC in late April. No exact date yet, but it should be around a month away.

Another round of Nintendo maintenance (“extended” this time, not “emergency”!) will be taking place on all of Nintendo’s platforms over the next few days.

The bulk of the downtime is happening today. Each one of Nintendo’s online shops will be down between 12 PM and 6 PM PT. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, and Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 will be affected at different parts of the day as well.

Tomorrow’s maintenance is much lighter – only Pokemon Black/White 1/2 will see downtime.

The full schedule is posted below.

Dan Adelman is quickly becoming a prominent figure at Nintendo. The business development manager joined the company in 2005, and has pretty much been the man in charge – behind the scenes – for Nintendo’s indie involvement and digital offerings.

Gamasutra sat down with Adelman for a chat covering various indie and eShop topics. He confirmed the removal of Nintendo’s indie developer office space requirement and WiiWare threshold for all digital platforms. Adelman also talked about how indies set their own prices, can easily update their games, puchase a dev kit for “about the price of a high-end PC”, and more.

Head past the break for all of Adelman’s comments.

UK indie developer RadiationBurn Ltd. plans to bring “Boomba!” to the 3DS eShop next month. Versions for iOS, Windows 8 and Windows Phone, Kindle, Blackberry, Andoid, PC and Mac are also in the works.

“Boomba!” is described as a “turn based physics shooter featuring 50+ teams of unique characters”. You can take on the role of punks, rockers, emos, soldiers, cops and others.

The new eShop title will include campaign and multiplayer modes and various weapons such as chainsaw missiles, boxing glove bazookas and metal anvils. The game’s various weapons and your own shooting accuracy will ultimately determine who prevails.

Dementium wasn’t the only IP Renegade Kid contributed to the DS. The studio also worked on Moon, an original first-person shooter for the handheld. Unfortunately, Renegade Kid was never given the opportunity to make a follow-up to Moon – despite having plans for a sequel.

Co-founder Jools Watsham told Nintendo Force this month that a second entry in the Moon franchise “seems extremely unlikely at this point due to its ties with the publisher”. Watsham did, however, leave the door slightly open to the possibility of working with IP rights holder Mastiff on obtaining the franchise.

Watsham said:

“We had always planned to make a sequel to Moon, but that seems extremely unlikely at this point due to its ties with the publisher. Perhaps we’ll attempt to buy the sequel rights back from Mastiff one day. Not sure. Having said that though, we are pouring all of our efforts and desires into our new first-person shooter for the 3DS. If people like our new FPS, then we’ll have complete freedom to continue to support that game with sequels and such.”
