Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town Hints

If you connect your game to the gamecube game Harvest Moon:A Wonderful Life after a few link stars filled in if you go to Won and water him with your watering can after a few or so days Van will come and you will be able to buy stuff from him. (This might work for the girl ones of these games).

Once getting golden lumber from Thomas, do not put it in your fields.
Your AP points on the villagers will drop.
Also, villagers will stop by and yell at you for showing off.

On Friday the 13th you will not be able to watch TV.

- in the supermarket, it says curry powder costs 100, but it is really 50
- in the aja winery, it says closed on sundays, but it is closed on saturday
- if you show your dog to stu, he will say "gee thanks"
- in the 2nd year (but i think it is on the 3rd year) when zack goes to the farm to get your shipments, talk to him, he will say something, then talk to him again, he will speak japanese!
- and a lot of spelling errors

The Harvest Godess Game Show will show spring 1-4

There are two different patterns in which the game sequence will follow:

1st Pattern:
up, up, down, up, down, down, up, down, up, up, down, up, down, down, up, down etc.

2nd Pattern:
the same pattern as the first way except for every down push up and for every up push down.

The first years in Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town is really difficult BUT i figured out an easier way. My technique is that at the 2nd day of spring, and so on with the whole spring season, all you should do is ship the grasses. Next, in Summer season, befriend with 2 harvest sprites, ask the first sprite to water the crop and the second sprite to harvest it. Dig 6 9x9squares and plant Pineapple seeds(cost 1,000 each bag but worth it). You can also ship items. Look at your money in the 30th day of Summer and be surprised! In the Fall season, buy a basket. go and ship items until the 30th day. Finally, on the winter season get your basket and go to the lake mine. THATS ALL!! HOPE THIS HELPS TO YOU HAVEST MOON FANATICS!!!

This secret wsa a discovery only!
do you see the grasses on ur farm (weeds)well,pick up
them by pressing A.

Put it in your racksuck by pressing B,
thus go to Popuri wherever she is.
Give the weed/s to Popuri then she will say "THANK YOU!"
IT ALSO INCREASES HER AFFECTION TO YOU!!

Go into Any building(including the mine near the Spring and time will stop.

Put one controler in the first socket then a second controller in the third socket. Push the start button over and over again in the third socket you make 10,000 each time!
