    I absolutely love this game! It keeps the whimsical charm of the original, while giving the graphics an overhaul to take advantage of the new nintendo hardware. The result is a fantastic zelda adventure that looks different enough to make it feel like you're playing a new zelda game. Great job nintendo! You guys got this one right.

    With tight controls, a large world filled with items to find, dungeons to conquer and charming characters to help, this gorgeous remake of the classic Game Boy title is just what I wanted. It's so much fun to go back through the world after getting new equipment to reach new areas previously inaccessible. And the graphics, they are stunning! So much charm! Totally worth the price. Highly recommended.

    The original Link's Awakening on the old BrickBoy has always been one of my favorite games of all time. You can tell that Nintendo put a lot of care into this remake. Aside from some frame rate issues, this is about the best remastered game I have played. The art style is perfect for the game and fits in perfectly. I haven't tried out the dungeon creator yet, but I hope Nintendo continues to add to it.

    It's so fun to step back into this amazing world Nintendo has cooked up. This is one of the best games I played as a child on my GameBoy, and will continue to be one of the best games of my generation. Nintendo has done a beautiful job recapturing the magic of the original game and updating it for all of us 26 years later.

    I never played the original game, however I wanted to complete as many Zelda games before TOTK and this was one of the games I still had to play. It’s really fun and has an interesting storyline, also the updated graphics make the game so nice.

    Remake of one of the best handheld games ever made

    It is a remake of one of the best handheld games ever made. It runs a little crap on the Switch 1. I hear it runs better on the Switch 2 with resolution upgrades and HDR support. Regardless, it is one of my most loved Switch games.

    The Legend of Zelda series is known for its quality across both consoles and handhelds, with the latter often standing out for their uniqueness within the franchise as a whole. The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was a shining example of that on the Game Boy and once again proves why it deserves to be talked about among the best in the series with its remake on the Nintendo Switch

    Excellent remake of what is considered the best or one of the best gb games made. I love the art design chosen and have not played the original so it is wild to play an old but new Zelda that I don't know my way through. Enjoyable 2d Zelda that's a nice change of pace from some other more difficult games. Only have an issue with the framerate jumping sometimes but I feel that may be patched soon.

    This game is cute. It has an animal crossing vibe to it as far as the sounds and animation. It’s an easy to understand version of Zelda that is not as in depth a story as the other Zelda available to buy. We are happy with the purchase of this game. It’s great for young kids.
