OOT all day for me. The controls of skyward sword were a no go for me

XxINFERNUSxX1029d ago

I don't know about the best, at least not to me. For me it was OOT and BotW. I still don't like the sword attack mapped to the right analog stick I would rather have it more traditional and just have it mapped to buttons.

The best wrist aggravator. I believe that's what the article title says.

Yeah it’s not even in my top 5. I understand the need to have directional attacks in SS with the in game mechanics. But damn, the “button” controls are just sloppy. The joystick sword controls don’t work that well and they aren’t intuitive. And the camera being mapped to a button so you can’t use the sword at the same time is terrible. I find I’m fighting the controls far more than I am any enemy’s in the game.
They should have had the camera be free then you press the L button to pull out your sword and use it. Map sideways attacks and up/down attacks to buttons. I’m no game designer but damn, there had to be a better way to implement the controls.
Litteraly beat the first dungeon and just put the controller down. I’m not finding the game to be fun, and it’s strictly down to the terrible controls. What a shame. This will remain the only Zelda game I haven’t beaten.

switchign the sword to holding L1 would have been so much better

Game was pretty much one big letdown on the Wii, ruined by horrible controls. Never got around to play trough it then because of t this. I might give it another shot this time around.

Skyward Sword has the best mini games in the series imo thanks to the motion controls.

Nintendo Select: 5 Switch Games That Deserve A Second Chance

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "The Nintendo Switch has been one Nintendo’s most successful systems ever, both measured by the number of units sold and the quality of its titles, but if there’s one thing this generation has been missing it would have to be the Nintendo Selects line, bringing existing titles that had paid their dues back at bargain prices. With the Switch now entering its twilight years, and there being few new titles in store for the foreseeable future, what better time could there be to bring back this tried-and-true tradition? While the actual realization of it may be doubtful given how rigid both hardware and software prices have become in recent years, that only gives us all the more reason to dream up a hypothetical lineup of our own.

For this article the specific focus will not be on those massive multi-million evergreens that the lineup would no doubt contain a few of to cement its value, but instead on games that for one reason or another fell short of their full potential the first time around and deserve a second chance to reach more players at an affordable price. Let’s get started."

I really want Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, can't believe that hasen't been ported. I'm playing Skyward Sword at the moment and I'm almost finished, but it's so long and the controls are so bad, even without motion. Astral Chain is fantastic though, they should make a sequel.
