    I have played both BOTW and TOTK (both my first Switch games) and I really wanted to extend my Zelda game library. I’m absolutely so happy to finally have this game in my library of games.

    I never got to play the original Wii version, but I'm glad I could play this one. The motion controls can be finicky, but are a blast! This game is well worth the money, especially if you have never played before and like the other Zelda titles. This one is supposed to be the first chronologically in the series, so for Zelda fans, this is a must!

    It’s just like the original Skyward Sword, but… —You have the option to use the control stick instead of motion controls. —The animation is way smoother —They may some of the cutscenes skippable, which is great if you’re already familiar with the story It was always a great game, but those tweaks make this the game the original should have been!

    Game is just as good as it was 10 years ago. With the upgrade of HD and 60fps, the game flows smoothly. Visually Beautiful. You get the option to experience the game with the traditional motion controls or with the newly added button controls. A great Zelda title thought to almost never make a comeback. Highly recommended if you've never played it.

    Fun characters, an interesting world and kind of a weird villain. Overall, a quality game you can play at home or on the go. If you like any Zelda game, you will probably like this one.

    Fun “open” world Zelda game. Controls are okay, but the gameplay is fine. Overall a nice enhancement over the original release on the Wii.

    The Zelda series has been a favorite of mine since I was young. I did not play this game when it was on the Wii, so I was excited to play a Zelda game that was new to me. I did enjoy the game overall, but I found the motion controls frustrating because of the constant need to reset the gyro. I also tried the button controls with the pro controller but I found that even more difficult to get used to. I did complete the game and while it's not my favorite Zelda game, I'm glad I played it.

    I never got the chance to play this on the original console because my husband squirreled it away before I could get to it. From what I'm hearing I missed out on overexposure to Fi. This is a fun game and I'm enjoying playing it on my Switch lite. I don't have the amiibo yet, but still using the save statue to go back home still works.

    I’ve always wanted to play Skyward Sword but never had a chance until now with switch remastered, and I must I am amazed and love the great game. The only issue is the motion control, it is very difficult to play which is why the game is very easy because it is hard due to the control gameplay, but other than that the story and art is absolutely stunning, your just going to run some difficulty with control so keep in mind.

    I loved that I was able to do an online pick up within a few hours and that it was ready early! The game itself is fantastic - as someone who lived BOTW this is a great game to play after while waiting for BOTW2. It's visually beautiful and the option to roam around in world and take the advent oat your own pace is wonderful.
