    4 Hours in and loving this game, the mixing of Bokunatsu nostalgic summer vibes with Shin Chan, which is show that already produces a ton of nostalgia in many people, is a great combination. Absolutely gorgeous. A pitty about the jokes that got lost in translation though, because there are a few. Other than that, hope the game does great and they bring a new Bokunatsu this time also for the west.

    It's refreshing to see a game like this allowed to exist and be appreciated today tbh.

    I genuinely feel bad for people that can't appreciate a chill and cozy game like the Summer Vacation series. Not judging or anything, anyone can play what they like, but having narrow tastes is an absolute bummer. There's so much more to gaming than action/violent games. And I'm far from preaching, I love those games too, but variety is the spice of life, don't knock it till you try it, folks.

    Damn, I read lots of Crayon Shinchan manga about 20 years ago and became a huge fan of the characters. I never thought in the year of 2022 it would be such a piece of art. The voice actors, artstyle, etc are genuine. Even the jokes in the dialogues, yeah the jokes are like what I expected to be. It's probably just another version of BokuNatsu series but feels like Crayon Shinchan video game is meant to be this way.
    8/10 is fair enough but for fans of the Crayon Shinchan it's a must have.

      I never read the manga but I did watch the anime. Randomly found it (I think toonami? I know I saw it on my cable tv). Funny thing is none of my other friends ever saw it so I couldn’t ever share my experiences. I was happy when they announced this game. It really is alot of fun. Especially during summer when it’s 100f+ outside daily and I get stuck inside.

    I started this "farming" games with Harvest Moon back in the age of Nintendo 64 and loved this genre ever since. I have never heard of the manga or anime of Shin Chan (i live in Brazil by the way) and by searching "farming" games for Switch I ended up here. Saw you review and bought the game immediatly after and I can't put it down. This game is gorgeous and I love it. Thank you so much for your video and review! 🥰❤️

    Great review! I bought it last year. I enjoyed the 僕の夏games I imported from Japan. Especially on the ps3 since it’s region (A) free. The little dialogues here and there were quite fun. (My Japanese is okay). When I saw this in the Japanese store I wanted to buy it but I figured it’d come to the US so I waited to get it on my Switch. I can’t read Japanese for too long before it fatigues me. I hope they bring some here or do more. I looooooooove these types of games. And I loved Shin Chan in the 2000s as a teenager who found everything hilarious at the time. Win win for me.

    A lot of shinchans jokes are based on japanese wordplay with him usually mishearing what was said or twisting it into something amusing. I caught a lot of them in the jpn original but can understand these are really hard to make work in english without reworking a lot as they just sound weird if plainly translated. This game is a rarity in the west i never in my wildest dreams would imagine a bokunatsu game would ever get a english translation if you ever want to see anyting like this again i suggest you support this as if it bombs i don't think we'll ever see another game ever come over here even in Japan this style of game is really uncommon now it's been a very long time since bokunatsu 4 on psp.

    I know it's available physically in Japan, but are we getting the same treatment here?

    Seeing Shin-chan in 3D seemed so impossible to do

      There was actually a 3d shin chan game on the Wii before this, that also happened to be a launch title in Japan for the Wii, however it was just a generic mini game collection.

    This game gives me the vibe of Studio Ghibli. I will wait for a discount to buy but I am very interested despite Im not really into Animal Crossing.
