    I would’ve loved it if instead of just getting skyward sword as an HD port we got a bundle similar to what they did with the All-Star bundle for Mario and we got Windwaker, twilight princess and skyward sword in one. -R.I.P notifications
  • The Nintendo pricing is getting a little bit crazy, there are never discounts or price drops, you can find 5 year old games at full price. And dont get me started at the "remasters" and the re-releases from the WiiU. They give them a 1080p upres and they resell it at full price,and people buy them because of nostalgia. It's ridiculous.

    Gotta say, the joystick controls were awkward at first but feels amazing after a few hours. Don't sleep on this one if the controls scare you. It's a masterclass game

    I didn’t even paid that much back then and it included a gold wii mote, foil cover, and a orchestra soundtrack. I guess if you never played it is… kinda expensive too, but at least is new to you.
  • @finecastleie
    Let's face it, when we were kids, we all wanted to imagine the wiimote was an actual sword, so Nintendo fed our childhood imagination with Skyward Sword.
  • THE most underrated/misunderstood Legend of Zelda game. Man, I have some great memories with this one on my Wii back in the day. Every area just felt so cleverly designed and especially the desert parts. This is probably my favorite soundtrack in the series too. It's finally time to revisit this old favorite of mine on my Switch!
  • @lesthera87
    I haven't played this game when it was released back then, it was the only 3D Zelda I've missed, I'm about 1 hour into the game and so far it's been a great game, I'm glad I got it despite all the hate is receiving!!!

    5:26 oh my god i totally forgot that this happened. The goblin really said "I can't kick your ass without getting closer" 🤣
  • @nomannic1
    I love how you mentioned the music, Fi's Lament is one of my favorite songs in the zelda frachise! great analysis!
  • @shermdar_
    I’ve always liked Skyward Sword 🤷🏻‍♀️ the story and music are amazing, and the controls never really bothered me. I’m glad it’s getting a second try.
  • @AdemTumerkan
    When the HELL are we getting a Twilight Princess Switch port? I’m itching for it bad..
  • @happyjam92
    I want it but feel like it's a bit much to pay full price for an HD upgrade. Will probably wait to find a 2nd hand copy in the future. In the meantime I think it's time I finally played botw dlc.
  • @Tulku
    This is my favorite Zelda story. I had the Wii set with the music CD back when it came out and I loved popping that music on when driving around. Perfect for NNJ/NYC traffic. My friend who didn't play it on Wii is playing it tonight and I hope he likes it.
  • @alexbehr6193
    I originally played this game when it first came out in 2011, when I was 8. Replaying it 10 years later was an amazing experience, and the HD remake is really the ultimate way to play this game. Finally beating that one boss that stumped me as a kid felt so nostalgic and heartwarming that I was willing to overlook the $60 price tag. 100% would recommend
  • @Tomec86
    I've never played Skyward Sword, however even so tbh I really really question the pricing of these "remakes" sometimes. I'm not saying it's not work to upgrade/port them, you can't just take the existing files, slap new textures on, and call it a day. But at the same time it's not like making a whole new game (most times) so it's kind of hard to swallow the full price thing.
  • Thank you for all your hard work folks! I appreciate these videos!
  • @daviddo658
    When Jake said this would drop a little later, he meant a little.
  • @DanielQuan97
    They didn't even upscale the textures, man. They straight up just went to options and changed the resolution from 480p to 1080p xD
  • @benb.1114
    OMG I'm so glad you mentioned the musical score. This game probably has most of my favorite scores from a Zelda game or any game. Man, I wanna play this again.
