Harvest Moon: Magical Melody

"What about the typical Wii controls? Aren't you able to swing your Wii-mote to use your hoe, hammer, etc.? Yes, you are, but why would you want to do that if it takes you more time and effort than just pressing the corresponding button and it's not even fun? In other words, there is a possibility to move the Wii-mote around, but it's completely optional and it doesn't add anything so you'll end up not using it."

"However, those completely unfamiliar with the mechanics of the series need be wary of the arduous confusement and time required to invest for success. At the end of the (long farming) day, Harvest Moon: Magical Melody is more an endeavour, than a pastime."

"It's soothing, compulsive and peculiarly thrilling all at once: a perfect little world where working hard brings its own tangible rewards and cows have huge happy faces."
