    Nothing wrong with the physical copy of the game, just a below average game from Nintendo

    Its an ok game. It would be better if they added swinging the sword with a regular button.

    Preordered this item back when it was announced. Saw there was supposed to be an extra bundle of stickers bundled with this for the purchase. Received game, no extra stickers that were supposed to be bundled. Game overall is another amazing Zelda title though.

    I returned it because I can't find the amiibo from a non-scalper, and the amiibo is supposed to correct a pretty big flaw in the original game. This game should be sold packaged with the amiibo. Or the fix should be included in the game, not put separately in an amiibo.

    Best Buy did not send me the decal sticker sheet. I like the game though. Not the best Zelda but good nonetheless. Fast travel lock behind the amiibo sucks.

    This does not compare to the original Zelda switch game in any shape form or fashion. I bought this for my grandson and he is totally unhappy with it.

    After Breath of the Wild this game is terrible. Controls aren’t fun or intuitive. I’ll probably throw this on ebay
