You know what I really love about the concept of pre-order bonuses? There’s no reason I should have to be bribed to buy a good game, but since these have become popular as of late, it seems like there is some free goodie that comes with everything. For Harvest Moon fans, they have this sweet little squirrel, which has deceptively long bunny-like ears and comes with any pre-order forRune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moonfor DS.
I also like the fact that Natsume offers such ridiculously cute things with no shame whatsoever (I have an adorable plush cat from E3 thanks to my visit with them). Yeah, it’s pretty girly, but I dig it — and I’ll bet you the person who owns the whole Natsume plush collection is more likely make than female.
