Nintendo Life - The 3DS has been on the market for just under three years and it is already home to two Harvest Moon titles, an announced Rune Factory game, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, two entries in The Sims series, and now the upcoming Hometown Story. It seems as though if you’re looking for a life simulator of almost any kind, Nintendo’s portable is the console for you. Though created by Yasuhiro Wada, the mind behind the Harvest Moon series, Hometown Story makes a departure from the farming formula and puts you in charge of a budding shop that is in desperate need of revival.
Global gaming publisher Rising Star Games and Mindscape, a game and software distributor, have announced they will be partnering up to bring two Rising Star Games’ titles to Australia and New Zealand.

Expanding your shop and the town it serves is undeniably satisfying, but sadly, it's nowhere near fun enough to hold your interest for the long term. Considering that numerous Harvest Moon games and spinoffs are available on the system and virtual console, not to mention Animal Crossing: New Leaf, turning up with Wada's name on the credits just isn't enough."
