    So far, so good. It's Zelda, and I love most Zelda games. Although this is not as good as Breath of the Wild, it's a decent game. The controls for the sword take some getting used to, but after a while, I got the hang of it.

    Girlfriend had it on the wii but couldn’t beat it so she forced me to buy it so that I can play and she can see how it ends.

    Great game although would prefer the price were lower as there are not many improvements from the version on older consoles.

    Fun game and I am enjoying the motion controls for the most part, but can be annoying when they don't cooperate. Wish I hadn't played BOTW before this as every other Zelda will not stack up, but would still recommend.

    A good remake and a good play-through if you have not played before. Also quite fun using motion controls with joycons.
