    I used to play this quite a bit on the old Nintendo systems. The new edition is amazing and so far is true to the original in story, but awesome visuals. Great game

    I have thoroughly enjoyed this game, so much! It had been a long time since I've played the original Link's Awakening. So playing this game again but in 3D style was both a blast from the past and a new experience.

    This remake is absolutely gorgeous and it holds up really well, even in 2019. There's a few issues of slowdown in the open world but it doesn't hamper what is a memorable adventure, made even better on the Switch.

    I honestly never played the original on gameboy but I played this beautiful game and am in love with it. I had so much fun taking my time with this game. The Mario references are so great to see as well.

    If you've played the old GB version then you know the mechanics and story. I'd argue you should still invest in it on the Switch. And, if you've never played it, but enjoy classic Zelda games, buy it. Now!

    A beloved remake of the game of classic. Beautiful reimagining of the original game from 1993. And now a dungeon builder! So many secrets and boss battles to relive your childhood or dream of for the first time.

    Great game! Hours and hours of enjoyment. My five year old gets frustrated at times because he gets stuck but ultimately figured it out. Game that makes you think and not for those who quit easy

    Nintendo has done another fine job taking a Zelda game and upgrading it. Following in the footsteps of “A Link Between Worlds,” this beautiful update of the Game Boy classic is all it’s cracked up to be and more!

    I never played the original, but this game seems to hold up since it was released decades ago. Very fun and challenging if you play on the higher difficulty level. Definitely one of the top 5 games on Switch!

    I have always been a fan of the zelda games, so when seeing link's awakening being remade I was excited yet also skeptical if nintendo could pull it off. Thankfully they delivered an amazing experience.

    Love the updated graphics and the new changes where you can combine 2 items together. Only minor problem is when there's too much going on in the game and it slows done. But, other than that, it's a great game.

    I played the original Zelda, what? Thirty years ago? I bought this and the nostalgia was almost as fun as the gameplay. It brought me right back and I had a tremendous amount of fun playing this.

    While childlike and cartoony in looks, the graphics are actually amazing, and Nintendo has marvelously captured all the magic from the original version, while renewing it in all the correct ways.

    Link's Awakening consistently ranks as one of my favorite Game Boy titles. I can't even begin to say how delightful it is to see it with a fresh coat of paint. This is a classic Zelda title through and through!
