    I never really got to play this game the first time around due to the waggle controls so this is like a brand new game!!!

    Skyward Sword is a great game, and this HD remake makes it even better, but it definitely shows its age when compared to Breath of the Wild. But overall I definitely recommend this game to anyone who loves Zelda games and lore.

    Masterpiece of a game. Was a little skeptical at first but they did this remake justice. Having a blast playing it.

    I like the game so far but the button control scheme is a bit weird and finicky for my liking. I couldn’t complete the first boss because I had considerable input lag. The rest of the presentation graphically is good though.

    Fun game. Controls take a bit to get used to and graphics are not amazing, but the game itself is a lot of fun. I had never played this on the Wii so it was my first run through and I have enjoyed it

    Fantastic remake that adds some pretty key quality of life improvements. I never finished this on the Wii U due to some of the annoyances but most of these have been fixed in the re-release. -1 star for the Amiibo nonsense,
