Zelda Skyward Sword

// November 19th, 2011 // General

After many months of waiting, the day has finally arrived! Zelda Skyward Sword for Wii finally hit UK shores! My copy arrived today, a day after the launch (no thanks to Amazon delivering it late).

Zelda Skyward Sword packaging

I got the Limited Edition Pack, which includes the game (obviously), a Zelda Orchestral CD, and a gold coloured Wiimote sporting the Triforce emblem. This is quite handy for me, as this means I now have four Wiimotes in all so can now have some proper multi-player gaming with my mates.

I’ll be spending a bit of time playing this and seeing what it’s like compared to the previous Zelda, Twilight Princess. I never played Twilight Princess on the Wii, only the GameCube version, so this will be a first for me to use motion control as well. We need to see as well how this new title fairs graphically to it’s predecessor. The graphics were made a bit more cartoony this time round, whereas previously it was up to Final Fantasy standards.
