Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a wonderful and immersive Zelda game up in the sky before Tears of The Kingdom! I do believe it worked better on the Wii though. With the Wiimote Plus and Nunchuk the game was really fun back in the day!

An excellent game all around, even if it does have its flaws. The mechanics can be tiring at times and annoying if you aren't prepared for them. The motion controls have improved slightly, but I prefered played with the pro controller. If you missed this the first time around then I highly recommend picking this one up.

Good not great remaster, gyro controls, can do without, looks ok, but still a zelda game

This HD port the wii title is pretty good overall, the added button controls definitely fix what most people had issue with. It's still Skyward Sword at the end of the day with all its highs and lows intact.

The game fixes a lot of the issues from the original. Players won't feel like they are being talked down to anymore. I definitely im excited to play this game on the switch

I am so, so glad that Nintendo finally decided to remaster Skyward Sword! The controls go along naturally with the joycons, and seeing the storyline of Skyward Sword unfold again on my Switch simply brings me joy. Planning on lending this to my best friend so she can experience the game for herself for the first time!

Glad to have another Zelda game to play on the Switch to tie us over for BOTW 2. Took me a little bit to get used to the controls, but once I got the hang of it, it made the game even more enjoyable. I haven't used the motion controls yet (cause i have drifting problems on my Joy-cons) as im using a Pro Controller.

This is a great game. Many hours of gameplay packed into this one. Dungeons are well laid out and have enjoyable puzzles. My only gripe is the combat controls could be better when playing with the joycons connected but still totally usable. Another great Zelda game

Like the game, cost too much for a game that's been out for years but that's typical from Nintendo

This was one I missed back when it originally released on the Wii. You can definitely tell it's from that era as the graphics don't compare to the brilliance of what the Switch produces. Still, it's aged like fine wine. Another excellent game in the franchise -- even if the motion controls are crappy. Great pick up.

The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword was always a good game even when it came out 10 years ago I bought it and beat it then but this new HD version is so good it has tons of improvements graphics fps movable camera and many more quality of life changes and glitch fixes This is the Definitive version of the game!

Story is great, but hate joystick controls for battle. I constantly have to switch from motion to joystick. Love hate game.

It's not the best Zelda game ever made, but it's miles better than the original Wii version. I tried out the motion controls for about five minutes. I'm very glad they added button controls to this version. The game itself gets a bit repetitive, with really having only four total areas (including the sky) that you need to keep revisiting, but they did change those areas up just enough.

It is great that Nintendo is offering some of these prior games in higher quality detail for the portable Switch. This is a game that I never had a chance to play when it came out for the Wii U, so now I have a chance to play it at my leisure. The updated graphics are great and so far the game is very enjoyable.

I loved how beautiful the game looked, and I hope they do this for more past Legend of Zelda games.

For those who don't know, Skyward Sword is the tale of the very first Link and Zelda. In this HD remaster, you now have the option to play without motion controls. It's rumored this game's story will tie into Breath of the Wild 2, but regardless I recommend giving it a try.

Great, remastered version with the controls sharpened great. A must have edition the any Switch gamer collection.

Never was able to play on WII so enjoying the chance and so far so good.

The game is fun to play. The motion controls are really good. I just didn’t like using the joy stick to swing the sword.

If you haven't played the wii original than this is the perfect opportunity to play. Better graphics and resolution for a modern era.
