Customers consistently note that the overall performance of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD is awesome, and many appreciate the updated control scheme and gameplay. Some players enjoy the story and appreciate the game's portability and improved frame rate. However, a few find the gyro controls unnecessary and the game too difficult for younger players.

Solid, aside from a little motion control issue.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Glad I finally got the chance to enjoy this game. Missed it originally on the Wii. But that doesn't change the feel due to the system, slight nostalgia brings me back to those days of motion controls. My only real complaint is how often I need to sync where the gyroscopes are to get the best use of the pointer, but that seems to be a limit on the technology as Super Mario Galaxy on the Switch had the same issue.

Great Game
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a great game, I know before many didn't play it back on the Wii cause of controls but the switch version brought in new ways to play that you gotta give it a second chance

Zelda lover!!!

Great game
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this on DOTD $30 plus tax. Great price. Game was a little slow at first but the temples are real good. I never played the original. The sword play is a little weird with the right joystick at first but you get used to it.

Worth every penny.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been eyeing this game when it first launched but wasnt sure on purchasing it since I never played the original version. But when it went on sale, I couldnt resist and purchased it. Worth every penny. What an awesome game!

Not prefect, but still solid
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoyed the Switch remake better than the original Wii version. The controls are still kind of screwy as you use the right joystick to use your sword (or you can use motion controls) not my favorite, but still a solid game for your switch.

It's a good game for the most part
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've played multiple The Legend of Zelda games and the majority of them have been breath taking and so much fun that I've replayed them multiple times. This game is in the middle in my opinion, it has good animation and storyline but just having to go back and forth to the sky and ground gets tiring and something irritating if you're trying to relax.

a gamer's review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.many people did not like the game when it first came out. but with the HD release on the switch it nullifies a lot of arguments that people had for the original release. i do highly recommend getting this game if you are/were a fan of the zelda series

A Modern Classic Reborn
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A modern classic remade once more! All irony aside, visiting the skies above and the great fields below will be a trip through nostalgia you won't be able to put down as you hack and slash through one of Link's earliest adventures in Hyrule and beyond!

Great Zelda Updae
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really enjoy this game from its art style to its story and level design. I think that the updates made help to improve this over the Wii version. If you haven't played this before I'd recommend it, and if you have I'd say it is worth your time again.

It’s a Zelda Game, Enough Said.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re a fan of Zelda you need it own this game. It was originally designed to be used with the Wii Mote but the controls were re-designed to work with the controls available to the Switch. I think they did pretty well all things considered.

Worth it for Zelda fans.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First time playing this game. It took a while to get used to the controls. Best way to play in my opinion is using the joycons instead of a gamepad. You have to use the right joystick when using the gamepad for attacks. With the joycons, you swing it instead. When panning the camera, you have to hold the L button or keep pressing LZ to center the camera. Other than that, it's been fun!

A fun time!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this game because I loved BOTW and wanted to explore some more Zelda games while waiting for BOTW2. Although I haven’t spent nearly as much time playing this, it’s still a really great game! It has helped to hold me over in the mean time. I’ve only used the regular mode though so I can’t comment on the motion controls which allow you to swing your sword.

Great game

I was finally able to play this game and it was worth the rate. The only bad thing is that some of the controls don’t make sense for the switch.

It's a Zelda game
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been wanting to play this for awhile. It's nice to get a "back story" canonically, if you get my meaning. Order came in on time and in just as a good condition as picking up from the store. Thank you!

The Dream release
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When this was announced for the switch I knew I had to get it. I had this back on the Wii and it really is my favorite Zelda game. Don’t listen to the naysayers. This installment is FANTASTIC. And the art direction is especially refreshing!
