Great game, controls are still slightly strange, but a great improvement from the original game.

Love the remastered version! Graphics help make it look more like an old game while still having the original feel!

Great remake. Included some decals with my purchase and got it for 40 bucks. Can't go wrong with this one.

This game is far better with button controls, as I was never the biggest fan of motion. Not perfect but good.

I like this game, but takes too much time to follow the story. if you have time this is a great game.

Wonderful to experience everything in updated graphics enhancements… A negative is the awkward camera controls.

My 9 y/o is really enjoying the game. He is a huge Legend of Zelda fan. Pickup was disappointing. They didn't have the special decals even though we arrived at store opening to pick up our game. It was the whole reason I ordered at best buy. Game launch was underwhelming as they also had none of the other Skyward sword products in stock. I doubt I will be able to find the amiibo now.

I have played most Zelda games, but having never had a Wii, this one was skipped by. I was excited that I would finally get to experience this one. The idea of the motion controls was a big interest. Having had good experiences with motion games on the Switch, this seemed like it would be great. Having finally played it... I feel like I'm playing a different game than everyone else here. The controls are buggy and trying to play it without motion controls is nearly impossible. The story seems like it could be fun, but it's bogged down by pointless cut scenes. (There's a scene early on where the headmaster tells you to go talk to someone, and Zelda then adds that the headmaster could talk to them instead, so the headmaster agrees and says they will talk to the person. There's no point to this entire, unskippable exchange.) I've made it to the second temple, I know there's a lot more left but the buggy controls, constantly resetting the gyro, and the impossible camera control outside of using motion controls are making this a real slog.

For the first time since I’ve payed Zelda I’ve been killed by a bat. Terrible controls and frustrating gaming experience. Two stars for the graphics and the story. Seems like it would be a great game but not interested in working around this mess. I play to escape from everyday problems not to be frustrated.

Great Zelda game! Having lots of fun, I was expecting some graphic improvements, this is the same game from 2011.

I really enjoy Zelda games and I have started playing games I didn't get to while growing up (like this one). This game is a little too linear for me to enjoy, while OoT and BotW allow much more freedom. Camera controls are a little annoying and took some getting used to.

Never played this on Wii because of motion controls. Being able to play with a controller made me buy this game.

Controls are still a bit weird, but happy to finally get to play a release in the series I hadn’t played before.

Frustrating game with a good story. Everything from the mechanics to the puzzles are frustrating in this game and no, not because they're challenging. Unless you were a big fan of the original release and want to relive it now in HD I'd skip this Zelda entry. Especially for 60 bucks... You'll have a better time replaying Breath of the Wild for the 2nd or 3rd time.

Solid Zelda game. A little tough to get used to the controls/camera movements but once you do it is a fun game.

Never played this on wii but now that’s it’s on switch I gave it a chance and honestly it’s a great gem. And should be part of any fan of Zelda it has great music and bosses and it’s a call back to the old classics nothing like botw which is honestly so bland

I'm a fan of The Legend of Zelda. Getting The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Nintendo Switch was a must have for me.

This game is one of my favorites, I like it better in the switch than in the play station 2

You know. a remake and all, but the adaptation to the switch controls is nice and more enjoyable than prior.

A good game but the controls feel forced. I widh i could just press buttons. It is a wii remaster, so.......
