Harvest Moon 64

Harvest Moon 64 (牧場物語2) — Nintendo 64, America, Natsume Inc., 1999. Japan: Feb 5, 1999 · America: Dec 22, 1999. From AMERICA: THE EARLY HARVEST MOON in the Harvest Moon Games Gallery.

The first 3D farm: painted art and a recolored cap stand in for Japan’s clay diorama.

The third game in the series and the first in 3D. The Japanese box is a photograph of a clay diorama sculpted by series artist Igusa Matsuyama; the US box replaces it with painted art of Pete and his dog, and recolors Pete's cap green (it is blue in-game).

The game had no PAL cartridge release at all until the 2017 Wii U Virtual Console — this is a US/Japan-only N64 box pair.

Across the Pacific in this gallery: 牧場物語GB (Bokujō Monogatari GB).

Shown here at its verified native size, 2100×1532, the largest honest copy the Library holds for this box.

This page carries the verified front-and-back pair: use the flip control on the cover to turn the box over.

Back cover verified from the Ranch Story wiki box-scan project: the red back panel, Natsume imprint, “Use of Alcohol” content note.
