    I remember playing this with my friend, I would go thru everything and he'd fight the bosses, than there was the game genie, and I was able to beat everything cuz well you couldn't die. No game genie here, but so far I've beaten 4 bosses, never got that far in the OS game. The graphics are so much better too, like it better than the Ocarina of time where'd I'd go behind something and get beaten up by something I couldn't see until the view changed.

    I grew up playing the original Gameboy version of Links Awakening. This remake does more than justice to the original. It's a great entry both for newcomers and veterans of the Zelda franchise. The art style is very charming and quite fitting for this adventure. The game moves forward at a fast pace, which makes the 12-15 hours it takes to beat it fly by. Despite the games short duration, I highly recommend it for Switch owners hungry for more adventures with Link!

    I’m happy with the game, but I think it’s important for buyers to know that it’s a little underwhelming if you’re not a die hard fan of the pre-Breath of the Wild titles. All in all, it’s a really fun little game that feels very nostalgic.

    In the quest for more Zelda as we wait not so patiently for more BoTW.... we turn to this lovely and delightful remake of Links Awakening. In short-buy it. In slightly less short- it’s adorable and cute with lots of fun to be had. Though shorter than BoTW and not as open play, it is a great way to spend an evening solving classic Zelda puzzles. 10/10 would recommend...and play again......*goes off to discover more Easter eggs*

    I have no words to explain how this game made me feel, since the original version was my first Game Boy game, it is a wonderful game, a beautiful story and a lot to do, Zelda games never disappoint you

    If you’ve played and completed the original game boy version. You won’t find too much difference in the overall game. However, with the enhanced graphics and some new things to explore. This version is really worth to revisit and experience all over again. There are enough subtle changes to give the veteran player something new to explore. New players will get to see why this Zelda game is and still one of the best in the franchise.

    I remember playing this game as a kid back on the original Gameboy in the early 90's. I loved it. Even remember the DX version for the Gameboy Colour in the later part of the decade and loved it even then. Now on the Switch? I LOVE it even MORE. The polish, the graphical style, the retained gameplay from the original? ALL AMAZING!!! I would love to see the Big N do more handheld Zelda remakes for the hybrid juggernaut that is the Switch. Must have!!!

    A Great Remake of the GameBoy Original

    This is pretty much a 1-1 remake of the original GameBoy game (it even includes the secret Color Dungeon of the GameBoy Color version), only with completely revamped, high-resolution visuals. The aesthetic is amazing, like a 3D diorama. While it's NOWHERE near as big or deep as Breath of the Wild, it's still a sizeable adventure (probably at least 20 hours if you want to find and unlock everything) and a great introduction to 2D Zelda games for younger gamers.
