    It's great that Ninty is moving some of its best games over to switch. Many people likely didn't get a chance to play this on the Wii / Wii U

    Excellent port of the original Wii game. The controls take a little bit to get used to since there’s no remote and nunchuck like on the Wii but everything else is great!

    A high-quality remake of a Nintendo Wii classic. While it doesn't have any new content like Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD, it does come with multiple control options and improved sound/graphics

    Excellent port of the Wii game. The motion controls work so much better than they did in the original. The amiibo support also allows for a nice convenience update with how the main character travels.

    It's so cool being able to get to play this game again! It's probably been a good decade since I last played it and it feels fresh, almost like it's a new game. Definitely brings back a lot of memories.

    My 12 year old daughter is a huge Zelda fan and she was very excited to get it for Christmas. She said it’s easy to play and follow and she enjoys it. The graphics are amazing as well.

    Better than BOTW

    I love Zelda games and was disappointed by BOTW’s lack of puzzle rooms/dungeons, difficult bosses, lack of story. This game is what Zelda should be. Building up to getting the triforce and mastersword. An interesting villain, and a world to explore that is fun. Lots of puzzles and interesting tools. Would highly recommend.

    At full price I would say this game is absolutely worth it if you didn't previously play Skyward Sword. Not having to only use motion controls for combat is a nice change too (from the original).

    Never got a chance to play this on the wii or gamecube so picked up for the switch and absolutely loved the game. Controls took a little to get used though. Lots of content for the value

    I was really looking forward to this and it hasn’t disappointed. Fighting mechanics are much better on Switch than the Wii version. A bit sharper contrast with no bog down during intense battle.

    Fun Zelda game with better controls than its first release. Telling the beginning of the Zelda storyline lore. Compared to the Wii version this surpasses it in almost every way, Go Switch!!!

    It's not Breath of the Wild so look elsewhere if you want an open-world adventure, but this is an excellent representation of a traditional Zelda game. Plays perfectly well without motion controls.

    In my opinion. Worst zelda control scheme. Graphics are just okay. Some say this is one the better games. I think are the bottom 2. Zelda 2. And this one. That aside, after over coming these controls and horrible camera. Its actuallt gun to see what inspired Botw

    Another Zelda remake to keep the Zelda fans satiated until the next BOTW2!! Skyward Sword gives another chance for fans to enjoy the game on an updated and more widely available platform
