Just cleared the game yesterday. My first Zelda game ever was BOTW then went to TOTK. After clearing the two with almost 800 hour between the two, Awakening was a breath of fresh air. Such an amazing game!
I want to own every Zelda game on the Switch. They need to release a Wind Waker / Twilight Princess HD two pack port from the Wii U and it's time for Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask to get the HD remakes that they deserve. I really hope the rumor that Nintendo plans a major Zelda release every year for the remainder of the Switches life cycle is true
I hadn't heard that rumor, but just last night I went on the "news" feature on my Switch and there was an article called... hold on I bet it's still there... it's titled "Get to know Link and his many adventures!" and it proceeds to list every Zelda game. There are 18 listed, and that excludes a few remasters and mobile type games (and the non-canon ones from Phillips CD-i). I think there's more than enough material to do so, but would we get tired of paying 60 dollars for unoriginal content? Particularly if it's just a remaster, I think 40-50 is a better price point, even for a first party title.
Twilight princess wind waker is next year with link to past remake. The year breath of wild 2 comes out we also get the minish cap remake. We are getting two zelda games a year now here on out.
They just did a Windwaker remake on the WiiU so I'd be surprised if they do another for the Switch so soon. They redid Majoras Mask for 3DS so I'd also be surprised if they redid that so soon but I haven't heard of an Ocarina of Time remake! Wish they'd do all of them though
Tomorrow’s going to be a busy day! Untitled Goose Game, Ni No Kuni, Links Awakening, and the official launch of the Switch Lite. I’m so freaking excited!
Brummie Key been paying off the switch lite and the games over time. Ni no kunis been announced for a few months and links awakening for almost a year. Plus I heard that untitled goose game will be on sale on the day of launch from $20 to $15
Myy100 yeah, they do. Sure would be cool if they would give me the right to legally digitally purchase their soundtrack. Until they do that I’ll pirate it. I’m going to listen to it, legally or “illegally”, I prefer legally but apparently Nintendo doesn’t want my money.
I would love for Nintendo to make more, “classic” styles Zelda games. There’s a real youthful charm to them that you don’t quite capture in the newer, more grandiose games.
I was born in 91 I had all my life to try links awakening and for some reason or another I didn't but in a way I'm glad as I get to experience this for the first time. And I can not wait
I really hope they do this for Oracle of Ages/Seasons. Seasons specifically is my favorite portable Zelda game, but playing them together is amazing. It’d be amazing to have that experience in this style.
"If you're one of the people who felt that BOTW gave you too much freedom and didn't feel enough like Zelda" I mean, personally it wasn't the exploration but the dungeons that really killed the Zelda vibe for me. Zelda thrives most on its dungeons and BOTW's dungeons were rough. But anyway, lovely review, excited for the game!!!
ncie game, but I played this game to death on the gameboy color, emulator and the 3ds. I think I'll pass on this one, for now. Maybe catch it up if it gets cheaper. To anyone who did not play the original: "PLAY. THIS. GAME!"
The DX version was on Game Boy Color. The Switch version is simply called Link's Awakening just like the original Game Boy version. But I too am excited to play it tomorrow. :)
@@arandompatrat9202 Yeah, that was the joke. It kinda sucks explaining jokes though, at least for me, so I want you to know you're a good person. Most people would just post r/Whoosh and move on, so good on ya.
Did you get a SNES controller? My NES ones are just sitting on a shelf because the titles they've released for NES aren't my faves (No Final Fantasy, no Dragon Warrior, no Battletoads, plenty of stupid Tennis and Tecmo) and I don't want to make the same mistake with the SNES controller if I can just skip it.
@@redlion145 I mainly played in handheld mode. The games holds up so. But I already have an 8bitdo SN30pro which is modeled after the SNES controller so I'll just use that.
Obviously this is years old, but for anybody watching this now, one huge drawback is the price. Even four years later, this game still costs an astounding $60 unless you find it on sale. It's really hard to justify paying the same price for breath of the Wild for a much shorter game that just doesn't have the same variety of things to do. Maybe one day it will come down to a price that makes sense for nostalgia purposes, but yikes.
That’s the reason I don’t own it. Since 2020 the greed of cooperations has been outstanding. Unless there’s a sale I won’t be buying this. The no sales and the Lego set $299, I think it may be time for me to give Zelda a break for a while.
Great game, but not worth $60 when you can buy the original for $6 on 3DS. This version only changes graphics and updates small things about gameplay. The Crash N Sane trilogy included 3 remade games that are newer and that only cost $40.
3:26 “really lucky” u know I bet there’s plenty of people who were born after the gbc lifespan and didn’t give the vc a try cuz that’s me how did this stupid comment get 20 likes in 16 hours
These games are not only nostalgic but have brought me some of my fondest memories as a child..when life was so much simpler..absolutely stunning..played all the original Zelda’s and I’ll definitely be redoing the entire series..this series seems immortal
@@TheMurderer1000 You can often find Tropical freeze remaster on sale for like $40. I'd be surprised if that's not the case for Link's Awakening a year from now. Sure they put in more work for this than TF remaster but LA was still considerably less work than most AAA $60 games.
Yep, I would spend it on DQ 11 or some other game with more content. Keep mind, Link's Awakening is the first in the series that I owned and I loved it.
Link's Awakening is my fav Zelda game ever. Simple but strategic maps & puzzles! The only disappointment is a little lack of storyline. I hope there will be a sequel of Link's Awakening later.
This is my favorite game of all time and the first game I ever beat on my own back in 1993 (pre-strategy guide) when I was 9. Hopefully Nintendo realizes the potential to remake both 1 and 2.
Links Awakening remake engine gives way for Oracle of seasons and ages, I know the boss theme will be re used considering the original was re used as the mini boss theme in oos and ooa.
Now that Microsoft is our friend, we can no more miss big action games, since I believe Gears and Halo will eventually be on the palm of my hands (with this or with a future hardware Switch), and best of all, we can keep playing masterpieces such as this one, that could only come from a Nintendo production.
This game was an absolute yes for me before i knew it was only a 15h playthrough. It will be the first time I play this game but I'm not sure if it's worth it's price...
@@nicholassullivan1239 DQ 11 looks good honestly i might get it but I was so disappoint about Link's awakening I meed a new Zelda experience so much jaha
@@SandyCheeks1896 - The story being the exact same game and almost word for word. Which it is, but it's nice to hear it outright. Also I've heard there would be some performance issues. They mention it's barely noticeable in this video.
I do think they should include the original as a bonus. Or at the very least, put it on the eshop. People will compare them, why not make it easier. Instead of getting two systems to compare them. A remake is never a good way to preserve a game. I mean you're not looking at someone's old work, you're looking at someome elses interpretation. No matter how good it is, it is not the same game. Again, cannot emphasize this with all remakes. INCLUDE THE ORIGINAL OR RESELL IT ON THE SAME PLATFORMS WHEN A REMAKE COMES OUT.
I pre ordered and I'm in my 30s it's hugely over priced I can't wait til nintendo goes bust and I can play zelda on my PlayStation they are repackage resale and out of ideas live off over priced nestalgia
I really wish they made use of the dpad so you didn't have to go into the menu to switch ur equipment. Seems like a waste of real estate and a missed opportunity.
LTTP is one of my all time favourite Zelda games but I never got to play the original version of this. I may have to pick this one up when it's on sale.
For me, its hard to justify paying $60 for a game that will take a few hours to beat. It looks really good and fun to play but not worth the cost to me.
@@haileymatthews1777 It's a matter of opinion. It happens very often and is very distracting to me. What bothers me the most though is that the developers let it be released in this state.
Hey guys im new on swith Want to buy switch just for harvest moon and pokemon series But i want to know what i get before that release?? Mario odyssey or this?
They really messed up with the pricing. This game should be a half price title at least. I wont pay full price for this, considering how much more I can get for that money elsewhere.
That's fine to feel that way, but it is a complete from the ground up remake. It's also consistently been on sale for $40 to 45 almost this entire year. If it was a remaster, I would probably agree with you, but every single asset is brand new, and the entire game was recoded.
Wait, Marin is Tarin's father? I've been playing Link's Awakening since I was a kid (turning 27 this weekend) and I thought they were married. This is seriously blowing my mind cause it changes the way I see everything between everyone
I got half way through the game boy version before I got frustrated because of all the items I had to keep switching between... I’ll probably pick this up because I felt bad I never finished it.
Great! Now let's get a remake of Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru/For the Frog the Bell Tolls in this style! It feels only fitting, since both it and Link's Awakening were Game Boy games that used the same engine, not to mention they already have a model of Richard from that game!
i got the game but the length of the game and frame rate issues, simply dont justify the quite steep price, was hoping for more, also whats wrong with nintendo to still asking for 59$ for the breath of the wild
This is how I'd imagine Link coming from the Gameboy games. He was always cute looking in them, rather then the handsome knight they make him in the other console games.
@@jonperez12344 This is where I would disagree. Because he did not look cute in the intro cut scene that is not how I pictured him throughout the game. He was distorted because of the limitations of the system but he was not depicted as a giant-headed cartoon character.
Love this channel. My only criticism (and other online reviewers) is that the majority of your review gives too much away with the story and plot. We as players can find this out. Keep it minimal like the old skool magazines 👍. I'd prefer to hear more about gameplay
OperaticDary Well considering there’s almost nothing to a plot and whatever plot there was was already spoiled off by Nintendo with the marketing + this game is well old enough, it’s almost impossible to avoid. I think they covered the gameplay for 90% of the review anyway.

@@SandyCheeks1896 yeah, I find it weird that they dont let you buy the soundtrack. Lol

Hi Thomas
I would love for Nintendo to make more, “classic” styles Zelda games. There’s a real youthful charm to them that you don’t quite capture in the newer, more grandiose games.
This game is so refreshing after playing BOTW for hours. This game feels like an actual Zelda game
Yeah the Zelda with Goombas and Zelda not in it feels like a “real” Zelda game
@@6ftmouse349 I said it felt like a real zelda game because it wasn't open world. Sorry for the confusion
@@cherry414 except first zelda and link to past were open world
botw feels like a zelda game so does totk they’re both great yes their formulas are different doesn’t mean they’re bad tho
@@cherry414 Ocarina of time is the best Zelda ever made and that was basically open world
They NEED to make an Earthbound remake in this style.
Here's hoping Nintendo has Grezzo remake the Oracle games next. They seem to be the go-to team for remaking Zelda titles.
Since those are the other 2 gameboy games hopefully they get this same style and come on one cartridge
Hopefully a new ever oasis first. That series deserves a second chance
Definitely. Wouldn't say no to DLC to keep the cost down too...
I would love for them to make the actual trilogy of games instead of just the two.
@@YoshionoKimochi kinda like a star fox 2 situation? They were gonna make a 3rd one but it got scraped due to it being to complicated or something?

@Nickolas Schneider good lord. You are probably a delightful individual otherwise, but this was a fantastically obnoxious comment.
@Blue&Green But that's the OP's point. I love BOTW, but the fact that it doesn't have any true dungeons os one of it's biggest drawbacks.
BOTW. What dungeons? Those things were jokes to be called dungeons. Bland and repetitive boring
I'm so glad I have a September birthday. It's easier to get all the games coming out when I can ask others to buy them for me lol

I've played Legend of Zelda in my old Nintendo Family Computer (Asian version of NES) and Link's Awakening reminds me of the OG game.
are they going to remake minish cap yet?
No not worth it. Frame drops, $60 for a 15 hour campaign, just a remake of a remake. Should be priced at $30 or $40.
I'd say $50 would've been the highest I'd pay and that's just because of nostalgia, I'll be waiting for a price drop before getting this one.

Great! Now let's get a remake of Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru/For the Frog the Bell Tolls in this style! It feels only fitting, since both it and Link's Awakening were Game Boy games that used the same engine, not to mention they already have a model of Richard from that game!
I'm still waiting for them to remake the original Legend of Zelda already and I would like the style for Link to the Past
Just picked this up with the Link Amiibo and I am excited.
Just a few hours in and this game and the feeling is amazing.
Little worried about the length, doesnt seem logical to pay $60 for a remake of a gameboy game
CommittingSloth then dont get it lol ur not being forced to lmfao
Chris Lopez what's Soo funny dickhead
Just picked up my Grey Lite and this game. Can’t wait to put hours into it.
So far every switch has launched alongside a Zelda game. Does that mean the the swich pro will launch alongside Breath of the Wild 2?
i got the game but the length of the game and frame rate issues, simply dont justify the quite steep price, was hoping for more, also whats wrong with nintendo to still asking for 59$ for the breath of the wild
seriously they need to re-release ages and seasons in this exact art style for switch next
Is the bow and arrow still 999 rupees?
980 but game let's you carry thousands instead of 999
Minus the odd art style on Link I'd take a full remake of The Legend of Zelda's 1, 2 and A Link To The Past in this same manner.
This style is PERFECT. But I would hate to see it exhausted, I wouldn’t mind maybe one more but I think it’s better if they keep it unique.
A link to the past would be GORGEOUS
@@SandyCheeks1896 I disagree about the style being perfect. It clashes with the art style from the opening animation.
This is how I'd imagine Link coming from the Gameboy games. He was always cute looking in them, rather then the handsome knight they make him in the other console games.
@@jonperez12344 This is where I would disagree. Because he did not look cute in the intro cut scene that is not how I pictured him throughout the game. He was distorted because of the limitations of the system but he was not depicted as a giant-headed cartoon character.
I can't contemplate attempting this in my 2022 gamer-incarnation without a walkthrough at hand 😂
Love this channel. My only criticism (and other online reviewers) is that the majority of your review gives too much away with the story and plot. We as players can find this out. Keep it minimal like the old skool magazines 👍. I'd prefer to hear more about gameplay
OperaticDary Well considering there’s almost nothing to a plot and whatever plot there was was already spoiled off by Nintendo with the marketing + this game is well old enough, it’s almost impossible to avoid. I think they covered the gameplay for 90% of the review anyway.
Great review. I cannot wait for release. Day one buy for sure! 😍
They need to remake the first Zelda with graphics like this.
Can't wait to receive my pre-ordered Dreamer's edition and Link amiibo. Thanks for the good review
im so sad that my dreamer edition most likely to be delayed.
Worth it. Nintendo will patch the framerate issues
Lol
Too short
Too many performance issues
No real new noteworthy content.
7.5/10.
Astral Chain or Link's Awakening?
Haven't been this excited for a Switch title in a long while
This game deserves a 9 but what confuses me is that it got the same rating as arms lol
Ocarina of time was the first LoZ game I played so on switch would be amazing
