    I didn’t play this game on Wii, and have long wanted to play. I’m glad that I waited for this to come on Switch instead of getting a Wii.

    An excellent Zelda game in a good package. Although some of its mechanics are outdated, it holds up pretty well overall!

    Skyward Sword is very good. Graphics are excellent on the Switch and the attached monitor. Impressed on how they tweaked the visuals.

    Awesome game! Brings back great memories and the graphics are much sharper than the original! Controls are a bit of a pain but worth it.

    Great version of this game. The game became strangely hard to get on Wii so being able to finally play this on Switch is great.
