I have a few notes. For the Goddess wishes, weather does nothing. Wishing for girls is random, won't always be who likes you the most. And the power berry from wishing for strength requires full stamina AND zero fatigue. Offering milk works as well as the other items mentioned. "Festival rain" will not make animals sick/angry. An alternative cure for cow sickness is to hit them with a tool until they get mad. Drawback to this is they stay mad for 3 days, instead of going back to normal right away with the medicine, as well as additional player happiness loss. Grass can't be harvested in winter, but it is still there, unseen. You can leave cows and sheep outside on sunny winter days, if you have some fully grown grass. And the invisible eaten grass will regrow as well. Despite dialogue saying that they will, the harvest sprites do not feed your animals during typhoons or any other time. The Karen dog glitch doesn't work if your dog's affection is high. It's possible to have a fixed and broken music box at the same time. But make sure you give away the fixed one before you talk to Rick! If he attempts to fix your broken box when you already have a fixed one in your inventory, you'll break the cycle and not be able to fix boxes anymore. Okay, that's enough nitpicking (and I hope you don't mind). Still a great video and I hope it inspires more people to play my favorite game in the series!
Makes sense why I didn't get any change after 10 minutes of Karen hating on my dogs intelligence. I loved him too quickly and it made the glitch impossible.
@Steelerfanskates I think it works if she says "doesn't seem too clever" and doesn't work if she says "it seems to have smartened up quite a bit"
@@SamVanDam oh ok that makes sense cuz I went back on and it worked with my new save. But I also had no idea I could dump something I harvest into the fountain and get a boost from the goddess so it's like a whole new game to me. I played when I was 6 I'm 30 now so it's exciting
9:51 Cows and Sheep sometimes get a HUGE happiness bump if they graze outside so it’s beneficial to do it sometimes.
Yess! They'll suddenly have that giddy, happy face! I'd almost forgotten!
There's no penalty for staying up super late. As long as you go to bed before 6am you get the full night sleep. If you eat a medical herb you won't get sick. As long as you have one of those you can stay up all night every night to do farm work.
This'll be handy for those going into the game for the first time, or after a while.
Also, should I add something? There's a climbable tree near the carpenter's place, which will help you get to the top of Moon Mtn. (It also helps for a certain event later.) Try heading up there around early Fall before the Harvest Festival. ;)
I love HM64! Not only my favorite of the series, but it was my most rented game growing up and I couldn't be happier to see it showed up on Switch!
My first and favorite of the games.😊
@SkitSkat674 You have grand taste! :)
Great video! I didn't know you could bottle milk your cow repeatedly despite how much I've played this game, but I definitely took advantage of the free wine to decimate the competition on new years.
I wanted to add a tip of my own that works due to quick saves: weather control! When you sleep, the weather for the next day (the day after the one you're about to start) is decided. Quick save before you go to bed, sleep, then check the forecast. If you're not happy with the next day's weather, load and sleep again until satisfied. No more typhoons!
That's a good one! It can be a bit tedious but worth it if you want to avoid typhoons!
@@JoshGamingGarden definitely! I hated typhoons. I've used this for trying to get rain before, and that is VERY tedious. Best just to use it for no typhoons.
This takes me back so much I love this game. I remember when I had no school I would play this game during vacations and mess around a bit, like when you talked about the free water I suddenly remember I’d just order and order it multiple times a day; or see what would happen if I slept all the way through all the years without getting progress on the farm and just go to festivals. Or romance a different girl next time. Or hoard so much gold and sell stuff from the mines and be rich lol
Thank for you these tips! I've never played before and started playing it and couldn't stop! It's crazy addicting even for an older game. I'm always like "ok just one more day and do this and this" over and over lol
It's wonderful isn't it? For the time it had the best art, best music and great game play.
I played this so much on the N64. I remember time did fly by everyday. I couldn't get everything I needed to done everyday.
I played this game so much as a preteen and didn't know a few of these tricks thank you:)
I love how most of these tips are also applicable to modern farming games! HM64 really served as a stepping stone for most cozy games!
I don't check the weather channel in games but I will do it here! Typhoons are terrible in this game! Thanks for the tips, Josh!
More games should make the weather channel actually useful! There are so many little details in HM64 that I'd love to see in modern games.
this is very helpful. i felt overwhelmed and confused when i tried to play cuz i didn't know how to do anything 😅
This is an awesome video! You give so many good tips and advice! I just recently remembered about Harvest Moon 64 and how much I enjoyed playing this game, and I searched for videos online, and to my surprise, I find this excellent video uploaded just a few weeks ago! It's great how people have not forgotten about this game! 👍😃
This was so helpful! Thank you for making this and I hope you share more!!!
Thank you for the video!! I'm currently playing this game for the first time on the Switch and it felt a bit overwhelming at first, but now I'm getting the hang of it! your tips will be very helpful!
This came out at the perfect time! I just downloaded it and can’t wait to dive in! It’s my first time! Great video 😄
Hoping that the FoMT enter the catalog after these two, or at least the GBC versions, the GBC 3 was a really good game with the boy and girl variant of farmer and rancher centered gameplay
Thank you so much for making this! I just recently started diving into HM64 and have been mostly surviving off my friends memories of playing on the N64 since so many systems are opaque haha. I'd love to see more videos like this from you!
One I wish someone told me before: Don't waste time planting flowers on your farm UNTIL you win the Sea Festival prize. The katori prize will actually greatly reduce the chances of enduring a typhoon.
Meaning if you happen to buy a greenhouse AND plant flowers to get the marbles from Stu, both of them could possibly be destroyed after a typhoon. Had to learn this the hard way. One time, I even had TWO typhoon storms back to back! I was so upset, but luckily none of my animals died somehow.
Helpful! Excited to try this one finally - I missed out as a kid
Yes please, continue to make more videos on Harvest Moon 64 💕 thank you for the tips!
17:25 there is a charm you can win that will protect the greenhouse.
Thank you for this Josh!
I’ve gotten sick twice and it really messed me up. It caused me to return the cows to the farmer guy in terrible condition and I didn’t get whatever he was gonna pay with me. I’ll definitely be eating medicinal herbs nightly now.
Thanks for the tips! Didn't know the milk or music box tricks. Please make videos about the photos too!
I wish I saw this before I started playing !! Haven't played since the 2000's and returning back to my favorite game :) I had to google the controls and it was confusing at first. Got used to it now though.
I hope you have more videos on this game, it’s a huge help.
Thank you thank you for the tip about the controls! I was losing my mind because it was makng me use the right bumper in order to backpack my items! I was even looking into trying to remap buttons on the Switch controllers. I also appreciate the tip about the music box because I didn't know that you could just till another square and then try again. o.o I got that bug the last time I played and was thinking I was going nuts not remembering where the spot was. Haha!
Ahhh this makes me want to play! I had to take a break cause the controls were SO CONFUSING! Your video helped a lot though thank you! I also had no idea about the glass jar and milk?? 🥛 it’s been like 15 years and I had no clue lol
This is a really wonderful video!
This game actually has one of the sturdier greenhouses. It will survive most typhoons.
Let's go, HM64 was such a fun game when I was younger
It still is a lot of fun!!
Got it queued up on my Steam Deck to revisit. Perfect timing on the video! @@JoshGamingGarden
I would love to hear any more tips you have! This'll be my first time playing this game, and even if it is similar to friend of mineral town, any new tricks would be welcome.
This game is so cute
Ty for this video, i was wondering if you happen to know if theres friendship decay in the game?
Only with your wife and child (and animals, I guess)
12:36 you can actually buy multiple animal meds per day, it restocks after you use it on an animal (still annoying you cant buy more than 1 at a time, and have to do a full round trip)
I grew up playing Harvest Moon Back to Nature, as it was the reason, I fell in love with farming games. I even still emulate it on my phone from time to time. How similar is 64 from BTN on the PS one?
BTN is a new game with the same characters and graphics as HM64. The characters had the same names but had some changes like different families, different personalities, etc. For example, Karen is very unfriendly in HM64 at first and is much nicer in BTN. Think of HM64 as a simplified BTN because they expanded on a lot of things when BTN was made. By no means does it make HM64 a boring game without enough content though. It's definitely worth a full playthrough!
I LOVED this game. But after playing any modern farming game, especially Stardew Valley, it is SOOO hard to enjoy this game.
I really wish the devs would remake these older Harvest Moon games with modern quality of life features.
I’d like more content about hm64 it’s my favourite hm games ❤
This is something I remember in the past for HM64, you could go to the bakery and buy an egg from there and then Incubate the egg to get a Chicken, it would save you a lot of money. Again though this was when the game first came out I don't even know if it was this game or not that you could do it.
I think that was for Harvest Moon Save the Homeland if I'm not mistaken! Definitely not HM64 though, you cannot buy eggs in this game!
@JoshGamingGarden ya I'm trying that out and I don't think I was right. I just remember being able to buy an egg somewhere to get a cheaper chicken
Did you know how to use the save states to cheese the weather for the day after next. Just create one before going to bed, then check the tv, if the weather is not what you want just load the save state then go to bed until you get the weather you want.
I THOUGHT HE LOOKED LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON TOO AS A KID!! Thought it was just me lol. My first Harvest Moon and farming game, so nostalgic.
Wow.
Do I have a switch? No.
Did I play the game on the N64? Neither.
Do I watch the video nonetheless? YES because it's Josh 🥰
Hey, I recently made an orchestral remix of the intro song for this game, I think you'll like it! 😊
is the game available on the switch also in europe?
How do I switch the TV channel on the switch to the weather channel??
You can change channels with the right stick!
proust explains harvest moon
The fishing is so difficult in this game :(
Probably the worst psrt of this game with the day lenght
21:25 Bugs?
Is fomt a remake of this one
No. It's completely different. They just liked to reuse characters from game to game. Gives it a sense of familiarity.
Now explain fishing lol
If i let my animals out will eat automatic 🤣🤣🤣
Another tip not mentioned. Win that first swim race to get the invincible katori. It's important because it keeps your greenhouse from being destroyed during typhoons
That's an old rumor that has since been debunked
