    Got it for $50 instead of $60, great game but it was originally $60 and thats why it matters and why it gets 5 star, for the $50 price

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 Although some of its mechanics are outdated, it holds up pretty well overall!

    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.

    Fun game! Never got it when it came out years ago but played it with a friend who got it for the Wii but unfortunately never finished the game. I think my only complaint is the flying is a bit harder to control with the joycons than it was with the Wii remote/nunchuck. You can argue with Nintendo’s pricing but that aside if you haven’t played it, never finished or just a fan of the game, it’s worth getting to me!

    Play with or without motion controls, and use the amino to go between Skyloft and surface whenever you want- play however you want

    I played Zelda - Breath of the Wild as my very first Nintendo Switch game. That was amazing with great graphics, intuitive movements and battles. The online reviews of Zenda - Skyward Sword were very good. I decided to jump in and buy this one too. It's just not the same as my original. The movements, graphics and abilities seem very rudimentary compared to my original. (I know this one was proceeded BOTW but supposedly reworked). Those people who've played and gotten further along in the game than I have seem to enjoy it. I hope to get there too, but for now I think It's OK and I would have been happier playing BOTW another time vs. buying this one I think.
