Natsume has updated Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley with a new patch. Version 1.1 is out now for all North American owners.
Here’s a breakdown of the patch straight from Natsume:
Thanks to all the fans who provided feedback for The Lost Valley to make it even better: a new patch has arrived for #HarvestMoon: The Lost Valley! Your North American copy of the game should automatically prompt you to download Version 1.1, which includes:
Improved Harvest Sprites~ Earn friendship faster, and watch them do way more work!
Improved Watering Can: 50 wasn’t enough, so now it holds 200!
Change in dog’s behavior: Some of Fido’s naughty habits have been minimized!
Minor tweaks to code that should improve gameplay!
There hasn’t been any news about the patch being available in Europe, but we’ll let you know if we hear otherwise.
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 was revealed for 3DS in the latest issue of Jump. A higher-quality scan is attached above, and we also have a comment from series creator Yuji Horii.
Here’s what he shared with the magazine:
“For the latest Monsters, it’s Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 3, a completely new entry in the series after a while. For the current announcement, I only have an illustration of the hero and logo, as well as a mysterious creature (laughs), but in addition to new systems, new monsters, and new communications, we’re diligently developing the game with all sorts of stuff.”
Akira Toriyama designed the protagonist for Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3. Jump also shows Nochora, a mysterious creature that will appear in various scenes.
Choice Provisions has revealed that Dragon Fantasy: The Volumes of Westeria is making its way to the eShop on July 23 on both Wii U and 3DS. Cross-buy is supported, so if you purchase one version, you’ll get the other one for free.
Choice Provisions announced via Twitter a few minutes ago:
Dragon Fantasy: The Volumes of Westeria is hitting 3DS and Wii U on 7/23! And it will be cross-buy! (Please RT!) https://t.co/O8HdL6aj1l
