    Great fun remake of a game I’ve never played until now, nice fun characters and great responsive controls and just a grand old time. Probably wait until it’s on sale though.

    I didn’t play this on the old system. Pros: graphics are decent, remotes allows various options for playing, resetting the gyro is one click. Cons: it’s nowhere near the quality and gameplay of Breath of the Wild. Granted, the original release was well before BOT, but if didn’t know that, you’d be disappointed.

    This game is better than it was on the Wii, but still not amazing. The Switch fails to replicate the Wii's motion controls perfectly and the controls in general are odd. However, the game itself is amazing regardless.

    This game is a great remaster/port to the Switch. I can’t stand motion controls, so the ability to avoid them is a real win for me. I skipped this game on the Wii so I’m glad I have a chance to play it now.

    Back to the beautiful days. A lot of improvements, better graphics - feels like a new game. The controllers could have been improved (it should have given the option of free joy-con or handheld - but its okay)

    This is definitely an underrated Zelda game, so I'm super glad they put it on the Switch for everyone to enjoy! Great story, great dungeons, some funny character interactions! I'd definitely buy if you haven't!

    I 've been waiting the release of LoZ:SSHD. It's probably my favorite story in the series. Controls are refined on the joy-cons. The button controls are okay. It plays like a different game and feels fresh.

    Everything you loved about the Wii version, just restored and enhanced on the Switch. I never finished it on the Wii-U, but I'm happy I get a second chance on an even better version of the game!

    Awesome game! Recently released back in 2011, this 2021 HD remaster is great! Really enjoyed replaying this title and reliving the experience of flying around Skyloft and exploring all of the areas within!

    This is a must have for any fan of the Legend of Zelda series. Some improvements have been made and it looks much cleaner than the original release as an HD remaster should.

    The original Skyward Sword was my favorite Zelda game. This being a direct remake with some quality of life changes and beautiful HD graphics has allowed me to enjoy my favorite game again. It’s fantastic!
