@@smokey5701 it's not bad necessarily I was just stating that if this guy can't see why other people might say it's bad he's close minded and delusional and not looking at the bigger picture. Anyways the game is good if you want it go for it but it is very backtrack heavy and probably the most linear Zelda game but it probably has the best story and character building in Zelda games. Maybe even some of the best dungeons imo
The story was great and the dungeons were pretty good (although still quite weak compared to other games in the series). The controls absolutely sucked and travelling back to the very few areas in the game just felt boring, the lack of a real open place to explore made the whole game feel too linear. I need a Hyrule field to run around in, rather than a small floating island.
If I'm going to be honest, Skyward Sword link may be my least favorite but does not mean I don't like him, I still love him. He was the first hylian to stand up to demise and he shows a lot of anger. I feel like the other links had more emotion in othwr ways if that makes sense. For example, the hero of time is very traumatic and shows in very subtle ways.
@@MmoonMmoose I agree with the subtle for the hero of time. It works great in the game. Tho one could argue graphical limitations of the N64 are the cause of the subtle reactions.
@@JakeYolkBro fr, thankfully a lot of online tutorials existed back then so it just took me a lot of reading. But this was my first zelda game so there were definitely at least 200 hours spent on this game for me.
Skyward Sword is probably my favorite Zelda title behind Majora's Mask. It has SO MUCH charm with a lovely world and surprisingly strong character incarnations, especially with this Link and Zelda specifically. They are so expressive and emotive, it's hard not to feel for them throughout the game.
Late but I literally own all 3 versions of TP (And I suppose both WW as well), and it's the zelda game I replay the most. Like I seriously have a problem... And the problem is Nintendo isn't fueling my addiction because I don't have portable Twilight Princess! I may not like the HD version nearly as much as the OGs, but.. cmon, man, the money you'd guys make has got to be worth the port....
@@wild180 Haha yeah for real, I usually find myself coming back to skyward sword more often than any of the games, but I love playing twilight princess again. I really want to play ocarina of time again, that was my first zelda game, a remake would be so awesome
@@MmoonMmoose I honestly really like the 3DS remakes, so even just having those upscaled and ported to switch would be nice. Not sure I'd buy those again, though-- so an actual real nice remake would indeed be awesome. OoT may be overrated but it's still a great game and could be amazing in an even more updated version (fan projects show a glimpse of what could be haha). I kinda really wanna see a more almost spooky Majora's Mask if it also received a remake which I feel it should if OoT does as the two are paired lol. I'm seriously still surprised they haven't ported TPHD and WWHD over yet though, I highly doubt it'd cost them more than they would gain. Though maybe they're waiting for the next console, which I'm hoping will play switch games still honestly.
Played the original and it was a lot of fun. I love Fi's subtle sass and devotion, Link being an adorkable sir, Zelda being lovable, and Groose going from the absolute worst to THE BEST BOY
@@selenopheria She doesn't have any personality. The actual robots have more personality then she does. The random plants in the background have more personality then she does
I actually love the motion controls, still in the middle of my first wii playthrough, but the motion controls make it seem more like you’re actually playing, not just tapping buttons, and I personally love Fi, she’s actually pretty helpful. I like the linear bits of it, simply because I do better with one specific correct answer. The storyline was incredibly interesting, and knowing the story of Skyward Sword, seeing other games like Tears of the Kingdom is so much more fun trying to piece together the timeline.
That's awesome! Glad you're enjoying it 👍And yeah many consider SS the prequel to botw and totk. It will be interesting how it all fits on the timeline
@@pugpartyproductions8805 my wii broke sadly so I had to buy it to even play the game but honestly it’s just about how good of quality you wanna play your game, I would say if you have the wii and are able to play that there isn’t really a point to get it unless you really want better quality graphics
@Magoo yeah that makes sense. I got the Wii version to save money. The controls have been working pretty well, but I haven't even gotten my sword yet tbh. I'm hoping that the annoyances aren't even that bad and that people are just not patient enough.
I played the wii version and the motion controls are not as bad as people make it out to be. I feel like it's either because i'm used to motion controls, people didn't position their motion sensor perfectly, or they move there body too much when they can just move their hands. It's not perfect, but i got used to it and fighting ghirahim and demise was insanely fun because it felt like i was having an actual sword fight.
Can confirm, it worked great for me and the position of the sword compared to the wii remote is shockingly accurate, I actually found the motion controlls on switch vastly worse than the wii. Most people who complain either didn't set up their wii properly or had faulty controllers. The girahim fight was so God damn fun.
@@PneumaticFrog my wiimote probably sucked ass if what you say is true. I had to recalibrate my Wii Motion Plus several times during bossfights, with the extension disconnecting while I swung my remote. Other than that, I completely agree with OP and you, this was an amazing game, probably my second favourite after Twilight Princess.
For me it wasn’t the motion controls (heck, I have twilight princess on Wii and Wii U and always play on the Wii version so I can swing the remote) but rather that the Wii Motion Plus was soooo annoying and always kept disconnecting and needed to be plugged back in
i loved the game on wii and i loved the sword motion controls but the loftwing controls killed my wrist it was aweful i am now playing on the switch which gives you the option to play with motion provided you detach the joy cons i tried both and am going for the sake of my wrist to play button controls only
@@froggy5584 my biggest issue was trying to get around the first boss dude. Garaham or whatever. He blocked my attack from any angle. So i just had to spin attack constantly and usually one got through. Took a lot of muscle power haha
@@FirestormDDash The first boss is quite hard because you don't quite know how to use the motion controls yet. You have to bait him to attack and then swing oppositely. Even speedrunners have trouble with it because it's genuinely difficult when you have to play with your own arms lol, even when the motion controls are working perfectly.
Guys, please play it. They ported it to the switch because it's part of the Triforce trilogy with BOTW and Tears of the Kingdom. Skyward was Power (Ganon's origin), BotW was Wisdom (Zelda's story, Spring of Wisdom plays a huge role), and TotK will be Courage, you can see the green symbolism and theme along with yhe Zonai stuff, which are linked to the Kokiri.
I played the original. Still my favorite Zelda. Partly for nostalgic reasons, but also because I love the Dungeons, Story, overall map design and Music.
Played both versions but only finished it on the switch. It’s a lot of fun, the only think I remember I didn’t like was that you needed a button to change the camera because the right analogue is used for the sword. And I’m glad that in TOTK we can soar the sky again, definitely one of my favorite parts of SS
Yeah, shortly after I beat the game, I was very critical, and multiple comments I have left on the internet reflect that, I think now that my initial anger has subsided, I want to give the game a second chance to really see if it is as horrible as I thought it was, or if I just didn't understand the Ocarina of Time formula and that's all.
@@Bored_Overthinker Yeah its worth a shot. Time can change our perspective. Hopefully the Switch version will make it better. If nothing else it will at least be shorter lol
I played both, its my favourite zelda game due to its story and music, zelda and link have so much emotion in this game, and the music is great, ballad of the goddess, fi's theme JUST AMAZING
Played the Og, liked a lot. The only black sheep in the series in my opinion would be BOTW, no dungeons, no normal progression. Its an amazing game but it definitively is different, but it does all that while clearly still keeping the spirit of Zelda games
Aside from the 4 packs of AAs, the harp thing not working with my ancient controller in eldin and fi not shutting up about my wiimote, it's honestly a great game. I mean it plays with time-travel, has an adorible link and zelda relationship, plus flying and awesome weapons. I'm glad other people started playing it once it was on the switch thought the lite controls fir the sword make my skin crawl. (Just play it with a good remote)
@bezoticallyyours83 it's on the Wii is all I know. Not sure about Remastered, they probably took out Fi's pop up of a long text basically saying 15% battery remaining. Then the same with 10% and then 5% , but I'm pretty sure Wii remote batteries dies out about twice a day. I only remember this because when I was a kid I didn't have an infinite source of Double A batteries so asquabbled around my house a lot trying to squeeze the last life of all the batteries I had, until I got a charge device to magnetically recharge the batteries themselves.
I played the original; it's my favorite of the current traditional Zelda games. Using a 3rd party sensor bar, using a motion plus controller with a motion plus attachment. Works *very* nicely.
I’m gonna be honest, the motion controls are what made it fun for me. I played the original when I was small, but was stuck on the island the whole time cause someone had started it but I didn’t know how to make a new save, so I ended up having 90 hours of wandering. But, about 9 months ago I was able to try the HD version (my sister got it for her birthday, since she’s big into Zelda. I am as well, but I don’t really like video games much). But, since she had it and it was nostalgic, I tried it. And actually, I really, _really_ liked it. I usually hate games since I’m terrible with remembering what does what and combos and such. But with the motion controls, I actually played better than her for once, since I could use my own body and not have to translate. Sure, recalibrating was a tad annoying, but it took like, a second at most and it was fixed. I never did finish it, since she played it in front of my cause she obsessive plays games to completion, but I will one day :>
Wow! That's awesome. Never thought about motion controls being better for those not good with a controller. I have faith one day you will complete it 👍
I remember someone I know saying the motion controls were awful, but he never even tried the game. I think a lot of people just jumped on the internet echo chamber hate train with Skyward Sword sadly. I’ve played the original and the Switch version, and I don’t recall ever having an issue with the motion controls. It’s definitely in my top 3 Zelda games, maybe even my favourite. The story telling, characters, and dungeons are just incredible.
I didn't have problems with the motion controls either & and I've played the Wii version. My top 3 Zelda games are: 1. Ocarina of Time (mainly for the 3DS version which has (in my opinion) great graphics for a 2011 game), the soundtrack, the dungeons and the characters) 2. Twilight Princess (for the atmosphere, the soundtrack, the character designs) 3. Skyward Sword (the artstyle, the character design and the soundtrack)
I know right? Link and Zelda mostly have had just a work relationship thru the series. Maybe one day we'll get to choose in a Zelda game who we can be in a relationship with
I just finished hero mode for the first time on the Wii and it’s still my favorite Zelda game to this day. By far my favorite main story of any Zelda game I’ve played with a beautiful art style that never gets old to look at.
Skyward sword is an amazing game in the legend of Zelda, it's basically the starting point, where everything begins, from a lore perspective it's absolutely necessary. But also from fun and being just a great game it hits the mark as well, imo.
I mean is it though? Like it's only convenient for dungeons really, other than that, there are bird statues everywhere and it'd probably take you longer to get up and get the amiibo than it'd take to go to a bird statue
Literally just started playing HD recently. Been absolutely loving it. I remembered loving the original and am remembering why going through HD. Love the OG Zelda algorithm
@@gamenerdlegacy Yeah looks like the switch and Wii hours are switched up since the switch version is faster. I enjoy the content binged a bunch of your shorts earlier 😀
@@EdenPrisonMC Well thanks so much for the binge 🥰 I really appreciate it. I'll have make sure I triple check my numbers next time, thanks for letting me know
Skyward sword is my favorite game of the Zelda series honestly. I grew up playing the wii and due to how much dialog there was it is one of the main ways I actually learned to read. I played and beat it when I was 4. Now with the HD remake I can still play my favorite game from my childhood
I played both versions some people hated it and some people liked it I liked skyward sword I thought it was pretty good the most special thing about skyward sword is that it shows Link and Zelda are very close in this game.
I understand the problems with SS... but it's still my favorite Zelda game. And it's because of the motion controls that I love it so much, yes the suck at times, but it is amazing when it worked. I haven't played the remake, and I know other Zelda games are better, but it's still my favorite.
Yeah people criticize it when it has some great mechanics namely the time shift stone, best soundtrack, beautiful art style, good characters and a great final battle and ending wouldn't say it's my favorite tho Majora's mask and botw go above it
I'd rank the 3d zeldas 1. Botw 2. Majora's mask 3. skyward sword 4. Ocarina of time 5. Windwaker 6. Twilight princess Never finished windwaker and barely played much of twilight
@@Maxippo I've also never finished wind waker. Twilight princess almost had the best story but they fumbled it at the end. At least they made the best companion, Midna. My 3D Zelda ranking 1. Skyward sword 2. Majora's mask 3. BOTW 4. Twilight Princess 5. Ocarina of time 6. Wind waker Objective rating 1. BOTW 2. Majora's mask 3. Ocarina of time 4. Wind waker 5. Skyward sword/Twilight Princess
Great addition in the series. If you’re a Zelda fan you should absolutely play it, played the original on the Wii as a kid and the remastered on the switch as an adult, which was awesome. Very touching story and enjoyable characters
I love the original SS, it's within my top 3 Zelda games. It has everything that makes Zelda great and the motion controls are awesome. If you dont like them, just raise your fat bum of the couch and swing the controller with no regard to safety. If you're standing and actually swinging, the controls worked perfectly for me. But I understand the frustration for left handed people, that should've been considered after Twilight Princess.
My favorite Zelda before BOTW arrived. I really found the game amazing especially with the wii remotes that were mimicking the shield and the sword + the story and the characters were all lovely, nobody will change my mind XD
Well, I only played the HD version, with button controls. But still, this game definitely has a lot of improvements I immediately missed when I revisited ocarina of time, twilight princess, and wind waker right after finishing skyward sword. I hardly had any problems with this game even though I'm bad at video games.
i played both right when they released and i have to say as a left handed person this game certainly gave me a challenge but maybe because of it i can now use both hands for just about anything which is neat. i loved the game i dont understand the hate on the motion control considering a majority of people were able to use their dominant hand at least. skill issue?
Skyward Sword is my favorite Zelda game. I have played them all but I just remember getting my black Wii for Christmas and going at that game for the first time and it was magic.
I played the original with a walkthrough on CZcams cuz I was a really stupid kid and 100% the HD version on my own as an adult. It’s so nostalgic, I love it. Never had issues with the controls even on the wii
I'm currently playing skyward sword hd and I don't get why people say it's bad. Yes, the motion control is bad sometimes but the rest of the game is really good and fun to play
Unfortunately the motion controls really ruined the game for a lot of folks. That's why Im glad there's a remaster on Switch to give players another way to play it and hopefully enjoy all the other great aspects of the game
Played both. Prefer the control scheme of the remaster. It isn't the best of course and it's pretty linear but it's not the shit show a lot of people make it out to be
I’ve played almost all of the main title LOZ games and out of all of them, Skyward Sword is my favourite lol I LOVE the characters, I love Skyloft and the loft wings, I LOVE the motion controls even if I got mad at them sometimes and almost threw my elbow out of socket trying to panic thrust lmao I also love Link and Zelda’s relationship and the fact that the game looks like a watercolor painting ~ I also love all the side quests and character depth ~ To me this game was the most lighthearted, the most beautiful, the most expressive and the most heartwarming LOZ game out there. And it’s definately my favourite incarnation of Link and Zelda 💜
Best Zelda game. Played all of the 3d ones + links awakening remake. Arguably the most satisfying, complete, cozy and fulfilling escape in a video game. Almost cried when it was over.
Genuinely the intro and Fi not speaking nearly as much saves TONS of time. When I saw your other short comparing the times of all LoZ games and you pointed out the time difference I knew it was because of that freaking sword. I lost countless hours listening to that sword every 2 seconds. That was by far the best improvement in the new one, and the button controls versus having to use motion. The new one has only improvements. Also yeah, it’s by far the worst of the 3D LoZ games. If they ever bring Twilight Princess and Windwaker to Switch then you youngins will get to experience the TRUE GEMS of the 3D games.
@@Labyrinth1010 of course I do. But those are the most obvious well known games in the series. By gems I mean underrated. They’re incredible game that get overshadowed by BotW, MM and OoT
@@SwedePotato314 it’s interesting you think they’re underrated. Zelda fans absolutely adore both games, especially the HD versions and they were both critically acclaimed. I mean, isn’t that the opposite of underrated?
@@Labyrinth1010 in terms of Zelda games, underrated yes. Like I said and you yourself also said, aren’t Majoras Mask and Ocarina of Time the darlings of the series? Yes. I understand Zelda fans love them, that’s why I called them gems because I’m a Zelda fan. I’m 36 and I’veplayed every single 3D game since their release day. Ive been playing since I was 12. So yeah they’re underrated in terms of Zelda games, I never said no one loves them. When I said they were gems you questioned why I didn’t say OoT or MM. then why I said yeah because they’re underrated compared to them you said it’s funny I think they’re underrated. There’s no pleasing you, is there? You’re being intentionally obtuse and I hope you have a lovely day.
Skyward sword is one of the best Zelda games top 3 or 5 and people hate on it because they didn’t feel like moving their arms. The story is great and added so much interesting things alongside fun and dungeons with mythological things in it.
Idk about other people but skyward sword has been my favorite Zelda game since I was young. I think I love it more since it’s the story on how the legend of Zelda starts. That always appeals to me in things like this. I love games that have good stories to them
I played both but the original will always be held dear to my heart because I had fun swinging the remote around. Like a full on child with a stick and because I was litterally at the final boss demise before I dropped game
Botw made me appreciate skyward more than I ever thought possible. I was dissatisfied with it at first. But now, I’ve totally changed my tune. As a big Zelda theorist and old school fan, yeah skyward will always have it’s painful downsides but it officially has a warm place in my heart.
Skyward Sword is my favorite Zelda game for a number of reasons: the story, the music, the world, the nostalgia. And well... let's just say that teenage me was very smitten with a certain demon lord and I was very excited to see Ghirahim in all his HD glory. ♦
I’ve played through both and I love it dearly. Truly a classic Zelda game imo through and through. It stands up alongside all the 3D games just fine for me.
Played original as a kid. Played HD as an adult. Haven’t completed HD, but found it to be more pleasing (being in HD and all the QoL improvements) Both still hold a special place in my heart. Especially since joy-cons don’t capture the Wii Motion+ controls the way the original does. Still a beautiful game.
I've played both and definitely noticed the shorter game play time when replaying it with the switch version. I was still able to get 32 hours in for a full playthrough, but I could swear it took me longer when I first played it on wii
This game is actually part of the botw trilogy. This I think is probably the courage game, botw is the wisdom game and TotK is the Power game. Something like that.
I SO wanna play Skyward Sword! I love using motion controls on the Wii and it just seems like such a cool game (not to mention that Zelda pushes Link off a cliff twice and the infamous skydiving clip that LITERALLY EVERYONE loves 😂)
If you like motion controls then yeah I hope you get a chance to play Skyward Sword. The Switch version has a motion controls option too though I'm not sure you'd love it as much as the Wii version. Yes, that Skydiving clip is AWESOME 👍
@@HarmonyMoonbeam024 haha Well there's definitely not as many who have the patience for the motion controls. But I've gotten large number of comments from people who do. One of the most interesting comments I got was from someone who was disabled and could never play any Zelda game cuz of their disability. But because Skyward Sword had motion controls they were able finally play a Zelda game and they loved it.
I played both! I never finished the wii version because I got my first game over on the second imprisoned fight, and I was so intimidated that I put down the game. By the time I picked it back up, I had to start over to refresh myself with the controls. Fast forward to a month before totk came out and I played the HD version! Both are fantastic, though I did enjoy the precision of the button controls and the portability of the HD version.
I played on both. I never finished the original, but I did on the Switch. I loved flicking that stick to swing my sword. I'd like to see that again. Maybe not the entire game, but do a 1st person mode where you can swing the sword at different angles. Ooh, new puzzles and battles in the middle of your Tears 2 playthrough!😮
Skyward sword is probably my 2nd favorite game unlike some people I enjoyed the notion controls and found the world to be interesting also enjoy the level like layout the game had
What I've noticed is that a player's attitude towards the game is strongly correlated with how well the motion controls worked for them. In my case, I had a brand new MotionPlus controller and it was a BLAST. I was free to appreciate the lush visuals and really tight design. Some of my younger siblings, though, tried to play it later, after the MotionPlus had been through some abuse, and they REALLY struggled to get into it. They've got HD on the Switch, now, and love it because they don't have to wrestle with the controls.
Yeah that's a good point. I think a bad or faulty Wii remote definitely can impact someone's experience. Glad your siblings got the Switch version and can enjoy it fully.
@gamenerdlegacy After that, I played Twilight Princess, but I don't think I've ever finished that one. Those were the only two I played for a while because my family only had a wii lol
Played the original. I don’t see why people don’t like SS. I love it.
I liked SS too but the controls were a turn off for a lot of people sadly

I still think link has the most expression in Skyward sword
I think you might be right
i feel like wind waker link is more expressive and has more of a defined personality, but this link is a close second for me
@@jr.jackrabbit10 Yea, i see your point, WW Link is really expressive too.(And Wind Waker is one of my favorite Zelda games)
If I'm going to be honest, Skyward Sword link may be my least favorite but does not mean I don't like him, I still love him. He was the first hylian to stand up to demise and he shows a lot of anger. I feel like the other links had more emotion in othwr ways if that makes sense. For example, the hero of time is very traumatic and shows in very subtle ways.
@@MmoonMmoose I agree with the subtle for the hero of time. It works great in the game. Tho one could argue graphical limitations of the N64 are the cause of the subtle reactions.

I never played the original so the hd version Is definitely worth it
Yeah the HD version is great
Fighting Ghirahim round 3 with the Wii controls is one of the best moments in Zelda, the combat gets you so involved
That is a cool fight
the soundtrack is SS is amazing. one of my favorites due to nostalgia
Its a really solid soundtrack
People only disliked SS cause it had motion controls. That burns calories and gamerbros have a figure to keep😂
True. My Wii got me quite fit 💪
For me it wasn’t the motion controls (heck, I have twilight princess on Wii and Wii U and always play on the Wii version so I can swing the remote) but rather that the Wii Motion Plus was soooo annoying and always kept disconnecting and needed to be plugged back in
i loved the game on wii and i loved the sword motion controls but the loftwing controls killed my wrist it was aweful i am now playing on the switch which gives you the option to play with motion provided you detach the joy cons i tried both and am going for the sake of my wrist to play button controls only
@@froggy5584 my biggest issue was trying to get around the first boss dude. Garaham or whatever. He blocked my attack from any angle. So i just had to spin attack constantly and usually one got through. Took a lot of muscle power haha
@@FirestormDDash The first boss is quite hard because you don't quite know how to use the motion controls yet. You have to bait him to attack and then swing oppositely. Even speedrunners have trouble with it because it's genuinely difficult when you have to play with your own arms lol, even when the motion controls are working perfectly.
Guys, please play it. They ported it to the switch because it's part of the Triforce trilogy with BOTW and Tears of the Kingdom. Skyward was Power (Ganon's origin), BotW was Wisdom (Zelda's story, Spring of Wisdom plays a huge role), and TotK will be Courage, you can see the green symbolism and theme along with yhe Zonai stuff, which are linked to the Kokiri.
Oh that sounds cool. So where does Age of Calamity fall in all this?
@@gamenerdlegacy its not canon unfortunately, a good game though.
@@a_person4742 Ah ok, got it 👍
I’m playing it now. Finished BOTW during Covid, best game I’ve ever played. I’ll do SS then move onto TOTK 👌
@@jabbadabbajew6035 Sounds like a great plan to me 👍
I played the original. Still my favorite Zelda. Partly for nostalgic reasons, but also because I love the Dungeons, Story, overall map design and Music.
Nice! Those were great things about SS
Played both, enjoyed both.
Nice!
played hd. Instantly new favorite Zelda game, I love it so much
Nice!
Played both versions but only finished it on the switch. It’s a lot of fun, the only think I remember I didn’t like was that you needed a button to change the camera because the right analogue is used for the sword.
And I’m glad that in TOTK we can soar the sky again, definitely one of my favorite parts of SS
Definitely fun to soar in the sky again
Fast forward through the dialogue was game changing for me
True it helps so much!
I loved skyward sword, played it on the Wii, replayed it on the Wii U. It had some irritating moments but some fantastic dungeons and boss battles.
Nice! Is it time to now try the HD version on the Switch lol?
Yeah, shortly after I beat the game, I was very critical, and multiple comments I have left on the internet reflect that, I think now that my initial anger has subsided, I want to give the game a second chance to really see if it is as horrible as I thought it was, or if I just didn't understand the Ocarina of Time formula and that's all.
@@Bored_Overthinker Yeah its worth a shot. Time can change our perspective. Hopefully the Switch version will make it better. If nothing else it will at least be shorter lol
@@gamenerdlegacy Lol yeah.
I played both, its my favourite zelda game due to its story and music, zelda and link have so much emotion in this game, and the music is great, ballad of the goddess, fi's theme JUST AMAZING
Yeah the music's great. It's nice to see so many people in the comments loved the story
Played the Og, liked a lot. The only black sheep in the series in my opinion would be BOTW, no dungeons, no normal progression. Its an amazing game but it definitively is different, but it does all that while clearly still keeping the spirit of Zelda games
You could also make an argument for Zelda 2. It was pretty unorthodox
You could also make an argument for Zelda 2. It was pretty unorthodox
@@tobiahrowswell2928 omg i never even think about that, that and like spirits tracks and stuff like that....
@@william7546 and I just thought of wand of gamelon 😂
@@tobiahrowswell2928 oh god... Yea lets focus on mainline standard entries lol
Aside from the 4 packs of AAs, the harp thing not working with my ancient controller in eldin and fi not shutting up about my wiimote, it's honestly a great game. I mean it plays with time-travel, has an adorible link and zelda relationship, plus flying and awesome weapons.
I'm glad other people started playing it once it was on the switch thought the lite controls fir the sword make my skin crawl.
(Just play it with a good remote)
Impressive you got through it despite the remote problems. Well done 👍
All things found in better games
I forgot about Fi talking about the % of your remote battery but I never disliked it or anything
@@inferno6362 that's something I've never had her do
@bezoticallyyours83 it's on the Wii is all I know. Not sure about Remastered, they probably took out Fi's pop up of a long text basically saying 15% battery remaining. Then the same with 10% and then 5% , but I'm pretty sure Wii remote batteries dies out about twice a day.
I only remember this because when I was a kid I didn't have an infinite source of Double A batteries so asquabbled around my house a lot trying to squeeze the last life of all the batteries I had, until I got a charge device to magnetically recharge the batteries themselves.
best zelda story delivered till this day, i just wish it was bigger. I still loved the game though in my top 5
Nice!
It’s so cool to have a solid number like that. Really shows how the quality of life updates had a major impact.
True True
Bro, Skyward Sword was my childhood.
Nice!
@@gamenerdlegacy Thank you (:
I played the original; it's my favorite of the current traditional Zelda games.
Using a 3rd party sensor bar, using a motion plus controller with a motion plus attachment. Works *very* nicely.
Oh that's cool. What 3rd party sensor bar do you use? cuz I'd like to get one for my Wii
I’m gonna be honest, the motion controls are what made it fun for me. I played the original when I was small, but was stuck on the island the whole time cause someone had started it but I didn’t know how to make a new save, so I ended up having 90 hours of wandering. But, about 9 months ago I was able to try the HD version (my sister got it for her birthday, since she’s big into Zelda. I am as well, but I don’t really like video games much). But, since she had it and it was nostalgic, I tried it. And actually, I really, _really_ liked it. I usually hate games since I’m terrible with remembering what does what and combos and such. But with the motion controls, I actually played better than her for once, since I could use my own body and not have to translate. Sure, recalibrating was a tad annoying, but it took like, a second at most and it was fixed. I never did finish it, since she played it in front of my cause she obsessive plays games to completion, but I will one day :>
Wow! That's awesome. Never thought about motion controls being better for those not good with a controller. I have faith one day you will complete it 👍
I remember someone I know saying the motion controls were awful, but he never even tried the game. I think a lot of people just jumped on the internet echo chamber hate train with Skyward Sword sadly.
I’ve played the original and the Switch version, and I don’t recall ever having an issue with the motion controls. It’s definitely in my top 3 Zelda games, maybe even my favourite. The story telling, characters, and dungeons are just incredible.
Nice! I find a lot people love the story, myself included
I didn't have problems with the motion controls either & and I've played the Wii version.
My top 3 Zelda games are:
1. Ocarina of Time (mainly for the 3DS version which has (in my opinion) great graphics for a 2011 game), the soundtrack, the dungeons and the characters)
2. Twilight Princess (for the atmosphere, the soundtrack, the character designs)
3. Skyward Sword (the artstyle, the character design and the soundtrack)
I absolutely love how close Links and Zeldas relationship is on this game, but disappointing that they never came closer
I know right? Link and Zelda mostly have had just a work relationship thru the series. Maybe one day we'll get to choose in a Zelda game who we can be in a relationship with
GNL with another banger of a short
Thank you so much🙌
I played it for the Switch, and I thought it was pretty good actually. Not as bad as people say
Yeah it's the Wii version and its controls that most players have a problem with. The Switch version is much improved.
I loved this remaster SO much. I am so grateful they made it
I know, Awesome right?
I just finished hero mode for the first time on the Wii and it’s still my favorite Zelda game to this day. By far my favorite main story of any Zelda game I’ve played with a beautiful art style that never gets old to look at.
Nice! Congrats on beating hero mode 👏
I played both and loved each one. The Hd does get extra points for portability and the updated graphics though
Yeah the HD version does look nice
i played the HD version for the first time and i loved the fact that you could swing your sword in 8 directions
That is cool
OG Skyward Sword was a blast once I got used to the controls, which honestly, was pretty easy to get adjusted to
Skyward sword is an amazing game in the legend of Zelda, it's basically the starting point, where everything begins, from a lore perspective it's absolutely necessary. But also from fun and being just a great game it hits the mark as well, imo.
Awesome!
Still mad at Nintendo for locking QoL features under Amiibo
Agreed, I wasn't happy about it either
That’s wat they do 😂 they give you a delicious meal and for deserts you get grandpa’s back tooth
@@stevtunes5677 😂😂😂
I mean is it though? Like it's only convenient for dungeons really, other than that, there are bird statues everywhere and it'd probably take you longer to get up and get the amiibo than it'd take to go to a bird statue
@@HylianSwamp123 yes it is
Those stick controls were incredibly broken. Being able to attack virtually as fast as you wanted to made killing any enemy a lot more easier.
Literally just started playing HD recently. Been absolutely loving it. I remembered loving the original and am remembering why going through HD. Love the OG Zelda algorithm
Cool! Glad you're enjoying it
Played both versions and loved them equally 🤠
Awesome!!
Think you messed up the numbers on your first slide with the hours. Other than that great video good luck on the grind. 👍
Did I? Oops! Thanks!
@@gamenerdlegacy Yeah looks like the switch and Wii hours are switched up since the switch version is faster. I enjoy the content binged a bunch of your shorts earlier 😀
@@EdenPrisonMC Well thanks so much for the binge 🥰 I really appreciate it. I'll have make sure I triple check my numbers next time, thanks for letting me know
I'm gonna get the switch version then, the price is almost the same
Good choice! Have fun
I think Skyward Sword has one of the best stories and soundtracks in a Zelda game. Played it on the Wii and Switch and loved it every time!
Well said 👍
Skyward sword is my favorite game of the Zelda series honestly. I grew up playing the wii and due to how much dialog there was it is one of the main ways I actually learned to read. I played and beat it when I was 4. Now with the HD remake I can still play my favorite game from my childhood
Wow! It helped you learn to read. That's so awesome 👍👍
I played both versions some people hated it and some people liked it I liked skyward sword I thought it was pretty good the most special thing about skyward sword is that it shows Link and Zelda are very close in this game.
Well said
I understand the problems with SS... but it's still my favorite Zelda game. And it's because of the motion controls that I love it so much, yes the suck at times, but it is amazing when it worked. I haven't played the remake, and I know other Zelda games are better, but it's still my favorite.
Nothing wrong with that 👍
Yeah people criticize it when it has some great mechanics namely the time shift stone, best soundtrack, beautiful art style, good characters and a great final battle and ending wouldn't say it's my favorite tho Majora's mask and botw go above it
I'd rank the 3d zeldas
1. Botw
2. Majora's mask
3. skyward sword
4. Ocarina of time
5. Windwaker
6. Twilight princess
Never finished windwaker and barely played much of twilight
@@Maxippo I've also never finished wind waker. Twilight princess almost had the best story but they fumbled it at the end. At least they made the best companion, Midna.
My 3D Zelda ranking
1. Skyward sword
2. Majora's mask
3. BOTW
4. Twilight Princess
5. Ocarina of time
6. Wind waker
Objective rating
1. BOTW
2. Majora's mask
3. Ocarina of time
4. Wind waker
5. Skyward sword/Twilight Princess
@@Vexx263 yeah I also haven't finished Majora's mask but I'm over half through the game and have done almost every side quest.
I played the original and the remake it’s my all time favorite Zelda game!
That's awesome
Great addition in the series. If you’re a Zelda fan you should absolutely play it, played the original on the Wii as a kid and the remastered on the switch as an adult, which was awesome. Very touching story and enjoyable characters
Yeah so many love the story
I love the original SS, it's within my top 3 Zelda games. It has everything that makes Zelda great and the motion controls are awesome. If you dont like them, just raise your fat bum of the couch and swing the controller with no regard to safety.
If you're standing and actually swinging, the controls worked perfectly for me.
But I understand the frustration for left handed people, that should've been considered after Twilight Princess.
Well said
I don't care what anyone says, Skyward Sword was the first Zelda game I ever completed and the Wii version still remains my favorite Zelda game
That's awesome!
My favorite Zelda before BOTW arrived. I really found the game amazing especially with the wii remotes that were mimicking the shield and the sword + the story and the characters were all lovely, nobody will change my mind XD
Not gonna change your mind. I just think it's awesome you love it 👍
Well, I only played the HD version, with button controls.
But still, this game definitely has a lot of improvements I immediately missed when I revisited ocarina of time, twilight princess, and wind waker right after finishing skyward sword.
I hardly had any problems with this game even though I'm bad at video games.
That's awesome. I'm glad you had a good time with the game.
it is the best
The gate of time theme in this game stands out as the most forgotten banger of a Zelda tune of all time
I just listened to it cuz you mentioned it. And dang you're right. I forgot that it was such a banger tune ❤
@@gamenerdlegacy omg dude right!? I totally forgot about as well until the other day on my HD play through. So good!
@@markskirby So good! Replying to you makes me wanna go put on the tune again lol!
This was my favorite Zelda until TOTK. But there was point where I preferred SS over BOTW. This game is so under appreciated.
I only played the HD version.
Fun fact about me i prefer SS HD over OOT and Majora's mask.
Oh really? but cool 👍
best feature update is being able to skip fi’s screentime
lol Nice! 👍
SS was the first Zelda I played as a kid, my neighbor let me borrow it and it blew my mind how the game played I absolutely loved it
What a great neighbor! That's awesome
I played both. On my 7th playthrough. It's my favorite Zelda game.
Wow! 7 times through! Impressive!🙌
i played both right when they released and i have to say as a left handed person this game certainly gave me a challenge but maybe because of it i can now use both hands for just about anything which is neat. i loved the game i dont understand the hate on the motion control considering a majority of people were able to use their dominant hand at least. skill issue?
I played HD version. It's a solid game. Positives: music, dungeons, bosses and story. Negative : linear, sometimes repetitive.
Nice!
Really weird to me how people think linearity is a negative
@@kazzajaxon7566it’s too linear because it relies on repetitive filler to continue the game
Skyward Sword is my favorite Zelda game. I have played them all but I just remember getting my black Wii for Christmas and going at that game for the first time and it was magic.
Way Cool! I'm also jealous you have a black Wii. I only have the generic white one
I played the original with a walkthrough on CZcams cuz I was a really stupid kid and 100% the HD version on my own as an adult. It’s so nostalgic, I love it. Never had issues with the controls even on the wii
Nice! Some of those puzzles and knowing where to go can be really hard as kid so using a walkthrough is fair
I'm currently playing skyward sword hd and I don't get why people say it's bad. Yes, the motion control is bad sometimes but the rest of the game is really good and fun to play
Unfortunately the motion controls really ruined the game for a lot of folks. That's why Im glad there's a remaster on Switch to give players another way to play it and hopefully enjoy all the other great aspects of the game
Played both. Prefer the control scheme of the remaster. It isn't the best of course and it's pretty linear but it's not the shit show a lot of people make it out to be
Well said
I’ve played almost all of the main title LOZ games and out of all of them, Skyward Sword is my favourite lol
I LOVE the characters, I love Skyloft and the loft wings, I LOVE the motion controls even if I got mad at them sometimes and almost threw my elbow out of socket trying to panic thrust lmao I also love Link and Zelda’s relationship and the fact that the game looks like a watercolor painting ~ I also love all the side quests and character depth ~ To me this game was the most lighthearted, the most beautiful, the most expressive and the most heartwarming LOZ game out there. And it’s definately my favourite incarnation of Link and Zelda 💜
Wow! Beautifully said. You know a game is great when can almost throw your elbow out of socket and still love it 💜
Best Zelda game. Played all of the 3d ones + links awakening remake. Arguably the most satisfying, complete, cozy and fulfilling escape in a video game. Almost cried when it was over.
That's awesome! I've heard quite a few people refer to it as a cozy game, that's really cool
Genuinely the intro and Fi not speaking nearly as much saves TONS of time. When I saw your other short comparing the times of all LoZ games and you pointed out the time difference I knew it was because of that freaking sword. I lost countless hours listening to that sword every 2 seconds. That was by far the best improvement in the new one, and the button controls versus having to use motion. The new one has only improvements.
Also yeah, it’s by far the worst of the 3D LoZ games. If they ever bring Twilight Princess and Windwaker to Switch then you youngins will get to experience the TRUE GEMS of the 3D games.
Very well said. 👍 And yeah fingers crossed for Twilight and Windwaker coming to the Switch. Also thanks so much for watching my other video
You don’t think Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask are gems?
@@Labyrinth1010 of course I do. But those are the most obvious well known games in the series. By gems I mean underrated. They’re incredible game that get overshadowed by BotW, MM and OoT
@@SwedePotato314 it’s interesting you think they’re underrated. Zelda fans absolutely adore both games, especially the HD versions and they were both critically acclaimed.
I mean, isn’t that the opposite of underrated?
@@Labyrinth1010 in terms of Zelda games, underrated yes. Like I said and you yourself also said, aren’t Majoras Mask and Ocarina of Time the darlings of the series? Yes. I understand Zelda fans love them, that’s why I called them gems because I’m a Zelda fan. I’m 36 and I’veplayed every single 3D game since their release day. Ive been playing since I was 12. So yeah they’re underrated in terms of Zelda games, I never said no one loves them. When I said they were gems you questioned why I didn’t say OoT or MM. then why I said yeah because they’re underrated compared to them you said it’s funny I think they’re underrated. There’s no pleasing you, is there? You’re being intentionally obtuse and I hope you have a lovely day.
Skyward sword is one of the best Zelda games top 3 or 5 and people hate on it because they didn’t feel like moving their arms. The story is great and added so much interesting things alongside fun and dungeons with mythological things in it.
That fight against demise was tough and the game made me lose 5 pounds 9 out of 10
It wasn't every time you pick something up, it was the first time you pick it up after leaving the game and then comming back to it.
Idk about other people but skyward sword has been my favorite Zelda game since I was young. I think I love it more since it’s the story on how the legend of Zelda starts. That always appeals to me in things like this. I love games that have good stories to them
Yeah the story is great. Glad you enjoyed it so much 👍
SS is easily the best game in the series imo. The motion controls makes it more immersive than any other zelda game and I grew up with this one as kid
I played both but the original will always be held dear to my heart because I had fun swinging the remote around. Like a full on child with a stick and because I was litterally at the final boss demise before I dropped game
haha yeah it is cool swinging the Wii Remote cuz at times it felt like you're swinging a sword
Botw made me appreciate skyward more than I ever thought possible. I was dissatisfied with it at first. But now, I’ve totally changed my tune. As a big Zelda theorist and old school fan, yeah skyward will always have it’s painful downsides but it officially has a warm place in my heart.
Well that's good that SS grew on you. Did you play it on the Wii originally?
Skyward Sword is my favorite Zelda game for a number of reasons: the story, the music, the world, the nostalgia. And well... let's just say that teenage me was very smitten with a certain demon lord and I was very excited to see Ghirahim in all his HD glory. ♦
Nice! All great reasons for it to be the favorite 👍
I’ve played through both and I love it dearly. Truly a classic Zelda game imo through and through. It stands up alongside all the 3D games just fine for me.
Awesomeness!
SS is genuinely one of my favorite Zelda games
Nice!
I remember getting stuck in the fire dungeon because I had to blow up a random wall and forgot that dowsing was a feature. I still haven’t gone back.
Aw dang. Yeah I've forgotten things like that before in games. Maybe one day if the urge hits you, you'll go back. Just maybe
Played original as a kid. Played HD as an adult. Haven’t completed HD, but found it to be more pleasing (being in HD and all the QoL improvements)
Both still hold a special place in my heart. Especially since joy-cons don’t capture the Wii Motion+ controls the way the original does.
Still a beautiful game.
Well said 👍The game does have its charm
Black sheep are still cute and fluffy.
This is true.
Playing it for the first time the HD version on switch and I’ve absolutely loved it so far. 50 hours in and going.
Awesome!
It definitely feels like the black sheep of the series I’d say, but that’s not a bad thing. It being so different is part of what gives it its charm.
True. Same I feel with the Adventure of Link
I played the original when I was about 16. One of the greatest games ever IMO. The sword controls are still incredible
Nice!
I’ve played both. The switch port solidified it as my favorite Zelda game.
I've played both and definitely noticed the shorter game play time when replaying it with the switch version. I was still able to get 32 hours in for a full playthrough, but I could swear it took me longer when I first played it on wii
I'm sure it did. Took me longer a lot longer on the Wii
This game is actually part of the botw trilogy. This I think is probably the courage game, botw is the wisdom game and TotK is the Power game. Something like that.
It's good that they all will be on the Switch then🙌
I SO wanna play Skyward Sword! I love using motion controls on the Wii and it just seems like such a cool game (not to mention that Zelda pushes Link off a cliff twice and the infamous skydiving clip that LITERALLY EVERYONE loves 😂)
If you like motion controls then yeah I hope you get a chance to play Skyward Sword. The Switch version has a motion controls option too though I'm not sure you'd love it as much as the Wii version. Yes, that Skydiving clip is AWESOME 👍
@@gamenerdlegacy I honestly sometimes feel like I’m one of the only people who has enough patience to use the Wii motion controls lol
@@HarmonyMoonbeam024 haha Well there's definitely not as many who have the patience for the motion controls. But I've gotten large number of comments from people who do.
One of the most interesting comments I got was from someone who was disabled and could never play any Zelda game cuz of their disability. But because Skyward Sword had motion controls they were able finally play a Zelda game and they loved it.
@@gamenerdlegacy That’s awesome :D
I played both! I never finished the wii version because I got my first game over on the second imprisoned fight, and I was so intimidated that I put down the game. By the time I picked it back up, I had to start over to refresh myself with the controls. Fast forward to a month before totk came out and I played the HD version! Both are fantastic, though I did enjoy the precision of the button controls and the portability of the HD version.
Yeah the HD version has a bunch of improvements. Hard to beat portability. I commend you for giving the wii version a go 👍
I played on both. I never finished the original, but I did on the Switch. I loved flicking that stick to swing my sword. I'd like to see that again. Maybe not the entire game, but do a 1st person mode where you can swing the sword at different angles.
Ooh, new puzzles and battles in the middle of your Tears 2 playthrough!😮
If Nintendo can get a first person mode to work within the game where you can do the flicking, could be really cool 👍
Skyward sword is probably my 2nd favorite game unlike some people I enjoyed the notion controls and found the world to be interesting also enjoy the level like layout the game had
That's Awesome well said 👍
What I've noticed is that a player's attitude towards the game is strongly correlated with how well the motion controls worked for them.
In my case, I had a brand new MotionPlus controller and it was a BLAST. I was free to appreciate the lush visuals and really tight design. Some of my younger siblings, though, tried to play it later, after the MotionPlus had been through some abuse, and they REALLY struggled to get into it. They've got HD on the Switch, now, and love it because they don't have to wrestle with the controls.
Yeah that's a good point. I think a bad or faulty Wii remote definitely can impact someone's experience. Glad your siblings got the Switch version and can enjoy it fully.
Skyward sword will always be my favorite LoZ game. It was the first one I played, as well as the first game I actually got invested in
That's Awesome! What Zelda game did you go on to after SS?
@gamenerdlegacy After that, I played Twilight Princess, but I don't think I've ever finished that one. Those were the only two I played for a while because my family only had a wii lol
@@PeachJaguar7597 Ah ok cool! TP is good. Hopefully Nintendo will release it eventually on the Switch
i played both, i love the ease of the switch controls but nothing beats swinging your wiimote around like a maniac
True, Swinging the Wiimote like a sword is awesome!
Its bc im not screaming in terror during the silent realms as much this time around, allowing me to progress
Haha true
I will remember this game till the day I die. I love it.
Same Here 👍
i played the remake and it was great playing a zelda game on the switch that played like an actual zelda game
Agreed. That is great
