Some of the unused items in Harvest Moon: 64 are extraordinarily familiar, mainly because they appeared in later games in some shape or form. We’ll be going through some of the items, tools and gameplay additions that were shelved before the game’s official release - and their appearance later in the series.
Harvest Moon 64’s Vegetable Festival was Educational!
When playing Harvest Moon: 64, did you ever feel like you might be learning something? You were right.
Then and Now: Jennifer
Like Brandon, Jennifer wasn’t in Mineral Town in either the original Back to Nature or the GBA versions.
Then and now: Brandon
As we can see, Brandon’s original design was that of thin air.
