Excellent usage of time
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Very good game, old school 2D world in 3D over head view just like the original but so much better. With having to use guides online, the puzzle factor/mission factor is above moderate. It will take some time to figure it out, depending on your mystery crackin skilz! Good story line, some cross over eye candy for those of us that love Mario and the like. And who doesn't love fishing? Glad this made a comeback! Although at the moment it has a lofty sticky price, but if you have a few dollars to burn, this is worth it.

A game between 26 years
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.From 1993 to 2019, a perfect game for two generations to play together. Nintendo has made this LINK between my childhood and yours.

Link's Awakening with a new look
||Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.If you loved the original Link's Awakening for the Gameboy (which you should), then you should be familiar with this game. If you've never played it, what are you doing?! Go and get this game now! I stopped playing after a while because the actual gameplay was not that new to me. I frequently play Link's Awakening on emulators (I still have my copy of DX), and I know the ins and outs. However! As much as I've played this game. I've never, and i Mean never, gotten past a certain pond. Maybe this time'll be different!

Excellent Zelda adventure.
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This game is so very good, the art style has been divisive for some but I really think it adds to the dreamlike world of the game, in my opinion this is a must own for Switch fans, the game is a classic.

A Must Have
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Fun game if you’re a Zelda fan. I never played the Game Boy version but I hear this is a better updated version of it. It’s also got elements of A Link to the Past. A Must have for Zelda fans!

Q: QuestionMy brother in law requested the game - Legend of Zelda Link to The Past HD for Nintendo Switch is this the same game?
Asked by Bobby.
- A:Answer No it is not, as of what I know there is no Link to the Past HD unfortunately. This is a remake of the original Links awakening and in the Zelda timeline this game takes place after a link to the Past. But this game is great and I do highly recommend it. I would love to see Link to The Past HD happen though. And Skyward sword HD is also coming pretty soon so maybe he'd like that one too.

Q: QuestionWhat does it mean that this version is digital?? What is the difference?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer It means that it’s a digital copy of the game that gets downloaded to the gaming system. There is no disc/chip. They give/send you a code to enter and follow the steps to download the game permanently to you system. 1 benefit is that you do not need to enter a disc/chip every time you want to play.

Q: QuestionSince this is digital, does that mean I have to purchase two if I want my two kids to be able to play it on their separate devices or can you download it on more than one device?
Asked by Scoobydoo.
- A:Answer Just go for the physical, you will need to buy two to play on a different system( if you choose digital).
