The Legend of Zelda series by Nintendo has always had some great games. However, not every game is favorably received by fans. In 2011, Nintendo released "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword" for the Nintendo Wii. Using the WiiMotion Plus, it was supposed to be an amazing, immersive game. But the game was heavily criticized and it is now one of the least liked games in the series. Fast forward to 2021. The Nintendo Switch is extremely popular, and everyone is waiting for a new Zelda game. Well Nintendo decided it was time to release a remastered version of Skyward Sword, "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD". This new and improved version of the game on the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, and Nintendo Switch OLED is supposed to be the definitive version of this game. But just how good is it? Today I take a look at "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword" and "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD" to determine once and for all if the game deserved all the criticism it received.
