The first in the Harvest Moon series for the GameCube, a Wonderful Life pits gamers in a real-life simulation that spans the equivalent of 30 years. As you blossom from a young man into a mature adult you will be able to date, get married, and have a child that will eventually become a huge part of your life. For instance, you might have a boy who will grow to work side-by-side with you helping to farm your crops. So, having a child will have a huge affect on your life. The third-person roleplaying simulation features more than 40 characters to interact with as well as Game Boy Advance link-up.
A "Special Edition" of the game was also released on the PlayStation 2, with additional content not available in the GC version.
