The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Limited Edition) Gold Remote Bundle (Wii, 2011)

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be remembered for revitalizing a franchise that had, for a time, seemingly settled for being merely great instead of revolutionary. Once again, Nintendo is demonstrating its unparalleled ability to craft some of the greatest gameplay this industry has ever seen. Remarkably, this Zelda game manages to reshape its control scheme, design sensibility and pacing all at once while still telling a brilliantly powerful story featuring some very memorable characters. Increasingly Nintendo refuses to compromise cinematic storytelling for gameplay, finding a balance that seems effortless.

It's fitting that Skyward Sword arrives on Zelda's 25th anniversary, because it truly pulls from the franchise's entire history, even addressing the winding narrative directly within its story. It captures a grandness and scope we haven't seen since the 2D era. It advances combat and control in the most significant way since Ocarina of Time. It finds a tonal and visual harmony between Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. And, most importantly, it leaves a mark on the franchise that future installments will no doubt draw inspiration from for years to come.

This is the Wii game we've been waiting for. Through all of the mini-games and odd sports collections, many wondered if and when Nintendo would ever find a way to deliver a deeper experience that still fulfilled on Wii's limitless potential. Skyward Sword makes good on that promise.

Simply incredible game! The bundle for the limited edition really is worth the extra money, since the golden limited edition controller comes with wii motion plus inside. If you don't have wii motion plus already and you just buy the normal game for $50 then the controls will be worse, and you will then need to purchase wii motion plus for probably about $15 more anyway. The game is fun, interactive, challenging, and will provide countless hours of gameplay. The music cd has great songs on it! Overall definitely one of the best legend of zelda games.

Exactly what I was looking for. The game was great, the Wii Remote was just what I needed to play it, and the musical CD was something I couldn't get anywhere else. I hope more people are able to get this package deal!

Awesome game.
Good graphics (for Wii), and perfect gameplay.
The music CD included is a real piece of art, and the remote is very nice as well.

Great game! Great buy! I do not however recommend paying over $100 for ti unless you are just really hardcore. But if you were, you probably would have preordered it right off the back. The symphony disk that comes with it is AMAZING! Overall this game deserves every last star that I gave it, also I recccomend if you havnt already purchased wii component cables, this game may not look as good unless you buy component cables! so I highly recommend you invest in those to get the maximum out of this games beautiful watercolor graphics!
