They were remade for wiiu so all nintendo has to do is port them. Oot and majora mask were remade on 3ds, and they look great. Nintendo could port those too. Cheer up. It could happen..

@@ronniewhitedx Not exactly lazy. Unlike other developers, Nintendo tries to take care with their first party games.

I’m a few hours in and I’m actually really enjoying the motion controls. Yes they are occasionally finicky but the issues are largely overblown imo, it’s just such a breath of fresh air for me and an excitingly unique way to play after years of “normal” controls. Anyone else feel the same?
@@jackthememer1186 Oot had pretty mediocre dungeons. Majora’s Mask clearly had the best dungeons. Each one is a masterpiece and had its own unique theme
The right stick sword attacks to me are REALLY bad. For button controls, it really should've just been a simple tap of one of the main four buttons. But that's just me.
The Zelda team likes variety. After several link to the past clones, Botw and Botw2 are a great addition. Maybe we'll get an integration of the classic alttp formula and the open world of botw in future games.
"The story and characters aged like fine wine" "It had me grinning from ear to ear until the very end" You could also argue that the score could have been higher based on those quotes. All in all though, I'd say 8 sounds fair.
The best traditional 3D Zelda game for me. Others were boring after a while. This one never got me bored for 60+ hours! Huge improvement over Twilight Princess!
People that are mad cuz this game didn’t get the same score as the original is just plain silly. Remakes or remastered titles should be scored by if it’s worth the cost to play again or it’s improved from pass criticism and different enough from the original.
Nah. I'm mad because they had someone who doesn't like motion controls review the greatest motion control game of all time. Literally why'd they do that? He makes it seem like a bad thing. I'm sorry he's lazy or "too cool" to get off the couch and sword fight and feel like a kid again, but this is just a bad review. He's missing the point of the game.
Wouldn't have given SS a perfect 10 to begin with, maybe 8.5 - 9. But to me, assuming everyone played the game 10 years ago and thus slashing the score is illogical. Many recent remakes are solid standalone experiences just as well as era-defining iconic games. Would be shame if non-veterans avoided them only because reviewers deflate the scores.
You are right. They should give it the same score regardless of the different reviewer, the ten years since release and the evolution of gaming since it first came out. Don't be purposefully obtuse, it's a bad look.
Almost like gaming standards changed in the 10 years since Skyward Sword was released? Should Pong still be highly rated since that was the greatest game of all time at release? Use your brain.
It's crazy looking at this game and BOTW and think - this was the last zelda game before BOTW. If anything, Skyward Sword shows you how much BOTW evolved the series.
Different reviewers have different opinions, also times change. Remasters of games rarely score better than the original release, even if they improve upon it significantly.
@@Pidove727 Okay, have it your way. Skyrim came out that same year and received a 9.5, making it worse than skyward sword. It’s remaster received an 8, so would you say over the years the hype for skyward sword has diminished and now we can accept Skyrim and skyward sword are both the same quality right?
@@dislexicpotato it wasnt a 10/10 back then either lol. But anyway, they shouldn't of scored it lower, its the same exact game but with some improvements. They should of kept it at a 10.

IGN: Skyward Sword on Wii - Score *10* IGN: Skyward Sword HD - “improved graphics and performance make this version look and play better than ever.” Score *8* I never understand IGN, or their haphazard scoring…
Its been 10 years since the original release. A remaster with this many improvements should be judged with more modern game standards in mind so it probably now deserves a lower score. Though you could argue it never deserved that 10 in the first place.
Just beat this game after two weeks with no guides or anything. Great characters and really interesting dungeons. Only gripe would be the sluggish controls and flying got really annoying. Ill give it 7/10 XD.
It is infuriating how bad the motion controls are and especially the necessity the game makes of them.

Even more unfathomable how a company of perfectionists like Nintendo apparently never had the thought of updating those controls or just plain right cancelling them in the first place. Excruciatingly infuriating
The ppl who have a problem with motion controls are most likely the same one's who tap buttons repeatedly until they get a response. You will not get the best experience out of this game without learning to properly use the motion controls. It is a completely different feeling.
Upscaled 480p is still 480p, the internal resolution is not changed. The upscaling on Wii U looks better than the Wii output, but nowhere near the quality of the visuals on the Switch version.

My theory is that the only reason they re released this on switch is because it's going to play a big role in the story of botw2
It's because of its tenth anniversary. Wind waker and Twilight princess were both re released in HD on their tenth anniversary.
Could be. Could be both reasons , story and anniversary. Or just a chance for Nintendo to make money between zelda games.

Because this is just a lazy "remake"
Just remember that Skyward Sword is on the Wii U for only $20 and the Wii U upscales Wii Games to HD
Upscaled 480p is still 480p, the internal resolution is not changed. The upscaling on Wii U looks better than the Wii output, but nowhere near the quality of the visuals on the Switch version.
@@damtech751 the switch is still upscaled. Don’t be a sheep and think for yourself.
@@jgal7979 You are correct in your point. But using insults like "sheep" that were edgy when people were worried about Y2K makes you laughable in the eyes of anyone who can walk and breathe at the same time.
@@jgal7979 No, the Switch runs the game at a true 1080p resolution in 60fps, wtf are you talking about??
So does your TV
It is a game that shouldn't be $60, but then you play it again and have fun and say "Sigh... Okay fine you win..."
Still waiting for an Ocarina of Time Remake
3ds
I'm glad this got a remaster with some QoL changes, this games story was slept on.
Re-release an old game, call it hd and charge your consumers full price is the new way of gaming.
Nintendo fans eat it right up. But ironically no long lines anywhere.
"iM a viCTim gAmEr! HELP!"
No one is forcing you to buy it
@@deadlygnome Never said they were, it's just a statement.
@@kylehill3643 Funny, yet SS HD is selling well as of now- Almost like people want to play what they want.
Nice, but where’s the Metroid Prime port???
Let me guess? nintendo did the bare minimum lol
Yeah
Big surprise
Not quite
A 8 out of 10 review..why? Because IGN that’s why
They gave the original a 10 lol
Its because nintendo is lazy garbage that dosen't care about their fans
Because this is a low effort "remaster". It's closer to a HD port with a few changes. If the Crash Trilogy gets an 8.5 this should not get any more than an 8.
@@user-it6yw4ee7n ...remasters are literally HD ports. Crash Trilogy was a remake.
Cant wait to play it on my Steam Deck.
Pretty sure it is a Nintendo exclusive. For now at least.
@@themostamazingtrees9958 yes but there's a thing called an emulator for Nintendo switch
@@themostamazingtrees9958 Pretty sure he means on dolphin... probably will run and look better than this official release.
@@themostamazingtrees9958 steam deck is a portable PC. Can run emulators
@@erickgm15 forgot about that
Boycotting this lazy greed of selling old games at AAA prices.
That's not going to do anything you know?
@@CDRW24 it’s going to save me $80
@@UnsettlingDwarf It's $50 at Walmart. The amiibo is completely unnecessary to get.
@@CDRW24 $80 in Canada same with all of Nintendo’s other cash grab ports
The game that got me into the series 💜 da best!!
same dude
For real
Off topic question: are ganondorf and Demise related? Just a curious question.
Demise is the original incarnation of the entire ganondorf line. At the end of SS demise says he and Link and Zelda will be linked to his curse and forever intertwined until it is broken,thus far none of us know if or how it will be .
@@bravefencermusashi4826 alright 👍
This comment hurts to read
Best game ever 12/10
Someone needs to go back to school
How about fixing the drift before you make any more motion control games Nintendo
They literally fix it for you for free...
@@Nipponing Just ignore him, he's probably in support of the lawsuit aswell despite Nintendo being great about the situation and providing said free repairs.
Is the reviewer using a kinect mic? Sheesh
Favorite Zelda game
Now release Twilight Princess, Nintendo!
They already did three times
BRO YOU GAVE IT A 10 AND NOW A 8 WHEN THEY ADDED BUTTON CONTROLS!?
IGN needs a remaster
Seriously, who tf decided to give a motion control sword game to a reviewer who doesn’t like motion controls??
I'm just going to say it - My favorite 3d Zelda!
You have low standards my friend
@@jacobluna305 Im new to the zelda series, BoTW and links awakening are the only 2 I played and Botw was one of the best games I've ever played. is there other 3d zelda games than skyward sword because it looks pretty lame to me
@@joe1504 of course Ocarina, majoras, twilight and windwaker all superior in my honest opinion.
Game: $60
Amibo: $25
Spending almost a hundred bucks to play a 10 year old game that only looks slightly better and still has clunky controls: Priceless
Best way to protest is not to buy it
You really don't need the amiibo- there's plenty bird statues scattered all over the place.
The only reason to get the amiibo is if you like the way it looks. Kinda weird that you’d include it in the price
The final score is 1 minute longer than the length of the review
IGN gave the wii review a 10/10 with "perfect controls". What went wrong here XDD. Skyward Sword is my favourite zelda game too damn IGN contradicting themselves.
Review was 10 years ago my dude
Original :- Despite several annoying aspects ,Gets 10
Remaster :- Despite several Qol improvements, Gets 8 ,why?
Because IGN , that's why
Because it's an older game and compared to modern standards, it obviously doesn't hold up as well.
As expected, Dolphin looks better at 1080p
Yeah I'm just gonna buy the steam deck and use dolphin
Actually dolphin has some pretty jarring graphical glitches (as shown in nerrel’s review of SSHD)
Anyone know what all the previous Amiibo do in this game?
Absolutely nothing. Not even skyward sword link. Such a bogus move.
@@wombat9671 Really? So only the new one?
Nah bro, the minimalist visual style of skyward sword is not one of the best in the series, hell no.
It's amazing this game is exploded in praise now where it's what lead to BOTW.
