The sweetness of Zelda: Skyward Sword’s intro
Posted on 2 years ago by Luiz in Features, Switch, Wii | 0 comments
Not everyone has the same experience with a game – many elements ring different for each person and the interactive nature of that media makes everything more personal. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is a great game, but inside such a highly regarded series sometimes being great is not enough, and that’s why some fans were disappointed with the game.
However, for me it was different. Skyward Sword is actually one of my all-time favorite games, thanks to the circumstances in which I played it and the fact that the game seems to be carefully crafted to appeal to me. In the video below, I share my initial experience with the title and explain why the first hours of it are so great and important to the overall experience.

After The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was announced for Switch yesterday, it promptly went up the eShop for pre-order. It seems that the store listing has a bit of additional information about the game. As it turns out, amiibo support is listed as one of the included features.
Nintendo hasn’t yet said anything about plans for amiibo in Zelda: Skyward Sword HD, so fans will be left to speculate for the time being. At the very least, the Skyward Sword Link figure from 2017 should be supported.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD arrives for Switch on July 16.

With a new modding breakthrough, YouTuber Waikuteru has managed to recreate the town of Skyloft from Skyward Sword in Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The area’s geography, color palette, and more were preserved.

Second retailer lists Zelda: Skyward Sword for Switch
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Speculation regarding a potential Switch version of Zelda: Skyward Sword first circulated after the game was listed on Amazon UK. The page was eventually pulled, but not before the news spread like wildfire. Nintendo hasn’t made any announcements, but there’s another interesting development as Instant-Gaming has now listed Zelda: Skyward Sword for Switch as well.
We still have to keep a strong amount of skepticism here. Keeping in mind that there hasn’t been an official reveal, it’s unclear when Instant Gaming’s listing was added. If it after the news from Amazon UK, this could have been a reactionary move. If it was before, then obviously it wasn’t. There’s no way to know at the moment, so we’ll just have to hope an announcement comes our way soon if Skyward Sword is indeed coming to Switch.
