    Definitely another quality AAA game for Nintendo. The controls are smooth, the story is engrossing, and the open world is a paradise! Highly suggest anyone add this to their next Christmas or birthday list.

    Literally, no words can describe this game. The scenery is beautiful, the game dynamics is great. The open world is such a big change and as a long time Legend of Zelda fan, it's amazing and I love it.

    I never liked Zelda games in the past, but this one blew me away. I have not even touched another game yet for the system. The story, music, controls, gameplay, and variety of challenges are all top notch.

    First Nintendo game I've purchased for myself since the N64!!! There are constant little flashbacks I experience when playing. It's in the music, bit and pieces that take me back. Beyond the nostalgia the entire game looks and sounds beautiful, the controls took me a few days to adjust to but I'm all good now. There is so much hidden where you least expect it. Loving the game!!!

    This game is quite a bit different from the Zelda formula, but has a lot to appreciate for both veterans to the series as well as people who have never played it before. Arguably the best open-world game to date.

    Greatest Thing I have ever Bought!

    I had a preorder at GameStop and canceled it thinking it really wasn't worth the trouble of buying a new console and I could just buy Breath Of The Wild on the Wii U. I watched trailers and thought is it worth it? I mean I thought about the same thing when I was going to buy Fire emblem Fates Special edition... I waited till last minute and saw no one else was selling it. I contemplated for about a week and the more I talked it out with my friends the more my friends and I wanted the console. I left class and camped out of Best buy for a good 12-13 hours and in the end when I went home to set it up. It was amazing. I do recommend it to anyone who really wants to play the new console and isn't afraid of spending a good amount of money.

    Absolutely enthralled by this game. It's deep, massive and insanely fun. You could visit every inch of the map and miss a lot of the game because many things are in-game time sensitive. At first I found the lack of linear progression overwhelming, but it's both refreshing and nostalgic to go back to the original design after so many years. The tutorial is short and many game mechanics are not explained, which makes you more line up with the amnesia-ridden Link. You're discovering how to survive in his world just as he has to. If you can't handle the endless exploration and discovery, there are countless blogs, websites and YouTube "celebrities" more than happy to do the work for you, let you skip what you paid for and just win.

    Breath of the Wild is the best game I've played in a long time. The visuals are stunning, the fighting is clean and fun, and the story is interesting.

    Full disclosure, I'm a 44 yr old father of 2 who is a lifelong Zelda fan. This ain't a "game" by any means, this is simply put, like being transported to another world. You can lose yourself easily, and I think thats what the creators had in mind when they developed it. As has been written in other reviews, the world map or playable area is absolutely MASSIVE and summons you to explore every single square inch of it. Fair warning, this is not a title that you can simply play for 15-20 minutes and get anything of note accomplished towards completion. Once you start this up you better have at least an hour to spare before getting to whatever else you have planned for the day. This is an absolute MUST BUY for any Nintendo Switch owner.

    Despite being impressed with the new games produced every year, I find myself hardly playing any. I wasn't sure about picking this game up due to that reason, but on a hunch I tried it out anyway. This game is incredible. The ability to explore every object you see in the distance, and the new battle mechanics that don't rely solely on perfect timing in order to strike work incredibly well together. The quirky side characters in the story are very enjoyable as well, leaving me with a good time whether I'm merely climbing a mountain range I spotted in the distance or enjoying the main story of the game itself. I would certainly recommend this game for anyone that enjoys gaming, or finds them self interested in trying this game out.

    Controls are going to be very difficult. Game will not give you many instructions. Pay attention to little things, gusts of wind, direction of son, were the birds fly, etc. This game is hard. Not a children's game. Never played Zelda before but needed a game for the system. It's really really good, but if you not ready you will hate it. Don't let if turn you off of the system. The game itself is fun once you get used to it. Just explore, forget the story till you are as strong as can be.

    THIS GAME IS INCREDIBLE! Its been a week of playing this game so far and I am bewildered. The map is immense and I'm convinced you could spend a month playing without running out of things to do. The puzzles are challenging yet not impossible. The enemies are pretty intimidating but you could also run away if you're in a casual mood. You could spend so much time doing the most miniscule tasks. I spent an hour cooking different combos of food with meat and plants I foraged from around the map. Graphics, soundtrack, and game play are all A+ from me. Would definitely recommend
