A fun gameboy game lovingly remade on switch with a cute art style and a phenomenal soundtrack

A fun port of an 8-bit classic that brings the 8-bit feel to the modern world. Classic Zelda with a great soundtrack to boot.

I am a big fan of the Zelda games. When I saw this in the store I had to purchase it. It is a great game. I have played through it twice and throughly enjoyed it. If you are a fan of Zelda and Link you need to purchase and play this wonderful game.

The Legend of Zelda for Nintendo is a timeless classic that beautifully captures the essence of adventure and discovery. Playing this game now with my young son, I am reminded of the magic that video games can bring. Seeing his eyes light up as he embarks on his own heroic journey, just as I did years ago, makes the experience all the more special.

Link's Awakening was one of my favorite gameboy titles and playing the new remake was a great nostalgia trip. Game does have some framerate / slowdowns which is my biggest issue with it though it did not prevent me from playing the game to the end.

This is far and away the best version of Link's Awakening available! The extra button and quality of life improvements makes it far superior to the Gameboy and Color iterations, and it includes all the bonuses found in the Color version! A must play for classic Zelda lovers.

My son loved it! Played it over and over for the days he was visiting WA. Used his Switch game to the big TV

Completely different than any other Zelda game I’ve played. You start off not being able to so much as jump, but it ends up like every other Zelda game where you’re loaded with gear and can travel anywhere with ease. I really hope they remake more Zelda games for the switch.

Really good remake of the original GameBoy game. Nostalgic and fun.

Great games super neat take for Zelda puzzlin adventuring all that jazz

I'm a huge Zelda fan and the new remake of Link's Awakening for the Switch is a stellar upgrade from the old gameboy version. Not only does it feature updated graphics and gameplay but it also features some familiar characters from a certain red hatted plumber's franchise.

I love Link's Awakening. It's a great Zelda title. That being said, I'm not hugely into or even remotely a fan of chibi art style so that was a little disappointing initially. I did get over it and I am endeared to the remake now. The only thing I'm not super fond of is the 30fps cap and the lackluster performance at times. A great remake that could have been better.

Great game and even better on NS2! Graphics are greatly improved.

This is a remake of the Game Boy version and it really deserved to be re-made. It is a fantastic game. They kept it almost exactly like the original but improved on a few things slightly! Overall it is a 5 star game and worth being in anyones Switch collection.

This was a great remake of the original link's awakening. I love the visual style of the game, its a good mix of modern look and old game play feel. The game is not too terribly challenging but I enjoyed adventuring around the island and getting more an more equipment to unlock previously unreachable locations. My 7 year old seems to enjoy it and doesn't find it too hard. My only complaint is that the game does at points leave you wondering where to go next.

This remake is gorgeous! It plays almost exactly like the original game boy game from the 90s and has plenty of much-needed Quality-of-Life improvements. Play this game if you haven't, it's a great experience for Zelda fans and adventure fans alike

Great game, beautiful graphics, much prefer this to the open world games, and it's not a massive time commitment. Enjoyed this on the the gameboy color, and it's even better on the switch.

Love love love!!! Retro with a modern look! I would recommend for all ages!

So fun to play from Zelda’s side! Definitely a learning curve but by the end we got the hang of it!

Great zelda game, Just in time for the switch lite. It's a great handheld game. Looks a little laggy when playing in docked mode. Notice a little frame rate drops from scene to scene. Easy for kids to play as well. The puzzles are pretty straight forward
