I couldn't finish it due to the controls, and also I just felt like it was a rip off for full price and it's lackluster graphics. It's a remake.

Man I got a 25 dollar e gift card to use this would be perfect, but I'm hesitant because of all the terrible control issues.

There's also the strong chance they're just being lazy and they've been instructed to heavily push the unsealed.
It's more work for them to sell the unsealed copy, as then they'll have to open up another one to put back up on the shelf. GameStop employees will always preferred to sell sealed, unopened copies, but locations will run low on inventory, especially for older games.

I'm with you - a Zelda fanboy who has played almost every game (could never get a hold of the Phillips CD-I), and using the right stick for sword attacks was terrible. I had a much easier time on the Wii, now if someone could take the absolutely necessary QoL changes from this version with the controls of the original, then maybe we'd have a game.

At this price it's worth it... I am to the last bosses and it's been fun, but I am constantly having to readjust the controls... It's not hard, you press Y when pointing at the screen, but it gets very annoying when fighting at times.

Quote from ChySan :
The controls are much better than the Wii version. I couldn't finish that game but did finish this version. I had to switch to waggle controls on some bosses but other than that, great game at this price.

People who complain about the controls on the Wii must've just sucked at the game cause I had no problem. Everyone was trying to do no damage speedruns I guess. Tbh this is my least favorite console Zelda but I would probably recommend it at this price because even though it's my least favorite it's still entertaining.

Controls aren't the best, but I got through the game by constantly switching between joycons and button pro controller. Great price for this game

Did they offer to sell in store?

We're the shares pre-owned?

Really? This should be regular price for this game, but people keep paying the price gouging prices that Nintendo has set.

After the immensely enjoyable play through of the Link's Awakening remake, I refuse to even attempt this to let it tarnish my Zelda world view. Of course I also boredom-quit BotW, so I guess I'm not mainstream.

Quote from OliveManatee886 :
Aren't all GameStop games pre-owned?

No. I'm so tired of this. You get sealed copies until they're down to their display copy. Almost every game I've bought from them over the past 15+ years has been sealed, aside from actual used ones. This, "Aren't all of their games pre-owned?" needs to stop. It's so stupid. It's just a bunch of bandwagoners who don't even buy games from them, hopping onboard the "I hate GameStop" train.

Not to mention that even with the display copy, it's still not pre-owned. It's open. They are two entirely different things, and people are too stupid to understand that. Pre-owned means it has been owned by someone. Display is not pre-owned. Are the display TVs at Best Buy pre-owned? No. In fact, GameStop has one-up on that. Those TVs are used. Open games go straight in a drawer and are brand new. You're probably going to open the damn game anyways.
