Thanks to Community Member beezleb for finding this deal.

About this Game:
  • Join Link in his emotional quest to save Zelda, a childhood friend who must confront her destiny. Their special bond at the heart of the story is the world's best hope for defeating the encroaching darkness—and its power that will echo through the ages. Embark on a destiny-defining quest to overcome ancient trials and forge the powerful Master Sword. The many residents of the floating island and Link's home, Skyloft, have colorful personalities that shine as you help them with their troubles. Make sure to stop by Beedle's shop, but keep an eye on the troublemaking Groose.
  • Descend from the sky to the dangerous world below in this high-flying quest. Your adventure will lead you through perilous dungeons packed with puzzles. Each item you receive will open up even more adventure—uncover a hidden area with the flying Beetle or find a clever way to hinder enemies with a whip. Whether you are scouring for secrets, getting in some sword practice, or upgrading equipment, forge your own path in the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD game.
  • Gently swing your sword and angle your slashes to break through opponents' defenses using intuitive motion controls*. Link's in-game movements will correspond to the angle of each strike you make with the Joy-Con controller, creating immersive swordplay that relies on strategy and accuracy. Figuring out how, when, and where to strike adds a puzzle-like twist to swordplay. On the go? Soar and slash using button-only controls. You can also use button controls on a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
Good Deal?

Objectively the worst Zelda. The game was made by 3 separate teams (one in house, one from another major triple a, one indie style team), each focusing on 1/3 of the game and spliced together to make the least cohesive game of the series. It's extremely buggy and repetitive with horrible controls. It also has the least entertaining world map making exploring a choir.

I'd highly recommend to skip this one, or at least don't expect a lot compared to any other Zelda game. I'd even prefer Zelda 2 over this.
I have to respectfully disagree. Big fan of its original release and think this port made it even better. They cleaned up a bunch and sure map exploration may be repetitive with the flying, but this surely isn't the worst zelda. Plus, the story may hold an importance to BOTW2. This is the very beginning of the zelda lineage
I have tried to play this games several times on the switch. Couldnt get past the controls each time. Controls are so counterintuitive and I have tried motion control and refular.

This is coming from someone who has beaten EVery console zelda, and about half the portable/game boy zeldas.

Many can get over the controls but I jusr couldnt do it.

This is a game I fully recommend despite its flaws. The story is solid, though a little poorly paced. The controls are pretty innovative, though can be frustrating. All in all it is a 8/10 experience for me. Not a perfect game, but it is really something that you should give a shot if you missed the WiiU launch

Weird Walmart won't let me use my gift card balance to buy the game. The order instantly gets cancelled "due to location restrictions" 😵 💫

Probably the first time I've seen hate for this game. We just got it for the switch and I hate everything about it. The controls are ridiculously painful and having to use that dumb bird to get around makes me hate it.

Nintendo could release ZELDA 2 for $60 and it would still sell....

Nintendo fans don't really have high standards right now
Thanks to these fools mindlessly gobbling up whatever Nintendo spits out, Nintendo now thinks that these over-priced, half-baked "HD" ports are okay. No chance of them churning out really great remasters ever. Never.
F**k.
I really want to hurt the anbase sometimes. Nintendo is in dire need of a good, firm kick where it hurts most to get them to stop doing some of the crap they've been throwing at people. These ports aren't even the tenth of it.
Well, nothing I can do about it except to stay out this Nintendo console gen. I'm not giving them any of my money this time.

Quote from WB_K :
And also the switch ppl should really go for cartridge. Cartridge to switch is like plastic pink spoons to baskin robins. U can't eat baskin robins without the pink spoon.

The insertion of cartridge is part of the gaming experience although it's missing the blowing and alcohol part, for better or worse. And the limited space.
whats this about blowing and alcohol?
